Organised by the Latin Ladies Association of Malaysia (LLAM), the event celebrated its eighth series this year.

The night began with QBE insurance chief executive officer Leo Zanolini, who had been roped in as master of ceremonies, asking the ballroom to observe a minute of silence as a sign of respect for the victims of the Paris attacks.
