5th Edition Of Salon Deluxe Vietnam - Affirming Vietnam’s Position In The Luxury Market

The 5th edition of Salon Deluxe Vietnam celebrated the finest aspects of life and the timeless value of diamonds and watches while connecting Vietnamese business leaders with globally renowned luxury brands. This exclusive event offered a curated luxury experience designed for collectors and high-net-worth individuals (HNWI) in Vietnam.

Vietnam is currently recognised as a rising star in the luxury goods industry. Amid rising inflation and the volatility of the gold market, diamonds stand out as one of the most sought-after assets. This is particularly true in Vietnam, where a rapidly growing economy and a burgeoning number of high-net-worth individuals are reshaping the luxury landscape. In this context, the 5th Salon Deluxe Vietnam made its highly anticipated return with an array of exciting activities from December 6 to December 8, 2024, hosted at the elegant Hotel Park Hyatt Saigon.

The event wrapped up on a high note with 350 VVIP guests attending the opening night, including business leaders, celebrities, and diamond collectors. Over the next two days, the exhibition welcomed 750 visitors who explored and acquired exclusive diamond masterpieces, solidifying the event’s resounding success.
