Dubai based Iranian singer, Layla Kardan, is channelling her corporate persona with an enticing new project, Papillon.

In a previous interview, Kardan revealed that she had “worked across different industries but mostly in strategic planning, business development, marketing and growth opportunities.” We’re quite positive that this project will be a successful walk in the park for her!

So without further ado, prepare yourselves for an unforgettable fine dining experience situated at the Westin Dubai Mina Seyahi Beach Resort & Marina. Papillon’s salacious performers will take their audience on a titillating journey of the ‘perfect encapsulation of the flight of the female’.

What we are doing here is special – we have a story to tell and a message that rings loud and clear – without divulging too much, I encourage everyone to come and experience first-hand the incredible talent we have gracing the stage and of course me, waiting for all the amazing people who support me consistently on my music journey, from venue to venue.

Layal Kardan’s Interview With Vogue Arabia

Here are some of the big names getting involved!

Denise Faye

The award-winning director/choreographer, most famous for her work in Chicago, Nine and Burlesque (featuring Christina Aguilera and Cher). She also worked with the legendary Cher again on her ‘Dressed 2 Kill’ world tour.

Kardan shared “Having Denise Faye at the helm of this project has been the greatest blessing.”

“I have always been a fan of her incredible work and performances in Chicago and Burlesque and now I get to work alongside her, which is also a dream come true.”

Roham Shamekh

The Iranian interior designer/art director has worked with the likes of Roberto Cavalli and Versace.

Not only will Shamekh design Papillon’s interiors…

He’s also the owner of luxury lingerie brand Atelier Bordelle, which will lace the venue’s sensual performers in custom handmade pieces.

While enjoying exploratory performances that are rooted in sexual liberation, Papillon offers plates of ecstasy that are inspired by French-Mediterranean flavors. Papillon is definitely expected to spice up Dubai’s nightlife!

WE SAID THIS: Are you excited for Dubai’s newest scintillating entertainment & dinner venue?
