Prague-
August 23, 2008 -
Every year Noubikko celebrates birthday
his traditional way, but not on his 50th.
It was the opposite. When Noubikko
arrived at the Prague International airport
preparing
for a trip to Holland his corporate partner,
an American friend and confidand, Giulliano
Russelli showed up and whisk him on a
private plane to a place near the Baltic
Sea in Poland. He
celebrated his birthday with some of his
closest friends, clients and confidants.
Traditionally, Noubikko
spends birthdays alone in a place he has
never visited. "Birthdays are supposed
to be spent alone, he said. They are the
the perfect times to recollect the past
and count your blessings so at the end
of the day you feel recharged and ready
for the next year, he added.
Upon arriving to the party, Noubikkko
was surprised and extremely happy to see
everyone. The
gathering was arranged by Russelli known
for throwing lavish parties during the
designer days in the early 90's in Seattle.
Russelli, a one time top fashion model
in Seattle and later became the CEO of
the Noubikko Company after the designer
announced his retirement in 2003,said
this gathering is worth celebrating with
special touch. Russeli has not organized
any party of this kind since the designer
retired as the CEO of the company five
years ago.
At the height of the party,
Noubikko announced that he will help build
the company's network again. The company
had experienced steep slide from it royalties
since the last five years because of the
global economic crisis. Its time to hold
each others grip firmly until all these
setbacks are over, he said.
The party was a big applause
for Russelli. Noubikko left early on the
24th morning for his usual birthday escapade
and spent his traditional way somewhere
in Slovakia. The pilot who brought the
designer to Bratislava, capital of Slovakia,
and said Noubikko attended Catholic church
service. Thereafter, the designer was
nowhere to be seen the rest of the day.
Later part of the week we have heard that
Noubikko celebrated a gathering with his
brothers with Knights of Rizal, where
he serves as the commander head in Prague
and the Deputy head for the Czech Republic.
