Haute Living celebrated its 10th Annual Haute 100 event with Miami’s 100 most powerful and influential individuals at the city’s brand-new, hot restaurant, Swan, in the Miami Design District. This year, the event paid special tribute to Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade for his immense impact on the city of Miami over the years, and in light of his final season with the city’s NBA team for “one last dance.” Luxury Swiss watch brand Hublot partnered in the high-profile affair.

The Haute 100 list honors those in the city who have had the greatest and most positive impact on Miami, assuring it continues to evolve into one of the most revolutionary cities in the country. The list highlights athletes, philanthropists, developers, entrepreneurs, creatives, hospitality power players and more. Haute 100-lister David Grutman and his restaurant partner Pharrell Williams gave members of the list a first-look inside the brand-new restaurant, Swan, as well as its haute upstairs lounge Bar Bevy before it opened to the public.

Members of the list arrived at the gorgeous scene, which was made all the more luxurious with a lust-worthy lineup of exotic supercars on display outside from Prestige Imports/Lamborghini Miami including a Karma Revero, Lamborghini Urus, the Lamborghini Performante and the 1 of 1 Pagani Huayra. Inside, attendees posed on the red carpet, dressed to impress as they were whisked into the stunning new restaurant meticulously designed by Ken Fulk for Groot Hospitality. Guests enjoyed decadent signature dishes prepared by Swan’s culinary team and Executive chef Jean Imbert, as well as specialty cocktails from Absolut Elyx.

In honor of the occasion, Haute Living and artist Jordi Molla presented Wade with a custom painting to commemorate the evening and honor his cover debut and contributions to making the city of Miami so great.

“Thank you, Miami, for inviting me back to this city. This may be one last dance but I’m not going anywhere!” Wade concluded.
