Renowned jeweler Fred Leighton will also showcase $50 million of diamonds in an amazing, never-before-seen private diamond collection at CELESTIAL - A Diamond Affair 2007. In celebration of the love affair between diamonds and Hollywood, the jewels pay tribute to the treasures of romantic figures of the past as well as the wish lists of today's starlets. The selection of museum-quality diamonds features exquisite pieces ranging from a French Crown Jewel to the pink diamond hoops worn in The Devil Wears Prada to several diamond pieces featured in Marie Antoinette.

In addition to partaking in the spa treatments, guests will also be giving something back to the community where diamonds originate -- Africa. Guests attending DIC's event will be taking home an Isibindi Diamond Medallion from Mia & Kompany. Proceeds from this special gift benefits Isibindi, a community-based child and youth care project in South Africa that raises support for the nearly two million children in South Africa who are left to fend for themselves in child-headed households due to the AIDS epidemic.

"I am very pleased to be a part of Diamond Information Center's 'CELESTIAL - A Diamond Affair,'" said Mira Sorvino, Oscar-winning actress. "Not only because of the beautiful diamonds and the unique African inspired diamond spa and retreat, but most importantly because this event raises money for children who need it most: A portion of the proceedsfrom each beautiful Isibindi Diamond Medallion presented to our guests directly benefits child orphans in South Africa whose parents have died or are dying of AIDS. The Isibindi project teaches child orphans the necessary skills so that they may remain with their siblings and receive ongoing nurturing care in their family home."
