On a cold November evening in the Bellair suite of the Hazelton Hotel in Toronto, the ultra-luxurious Dominican resort, Casa de Campo along with Holt Renfrew, the high end department store and chain headquartered in Toronto, presented Holt’s new 2012 Resort collection to some of the fashion media’s heavy-weights.
The presentation showcased noted designers such as Lanvin, Stella McCartney, Marni, Victoria Beckham and The Row.
Among the boldfaced attendees were; Lisa Tant, Editor-in-Chief of Flare, Noreen Flannigan, Editor-in-Chief of ELLE Canada, Hello! Canada’s Editor-In- Chief Alison Eastwood, Fashion Media Darling Sarah Nicole Prickett and Jeanne Beker, host of Fashion Television.
Inspired by and presented as a ‘nod to the past’ trunk show, models circulated through The Hazelton Hotel’s Bellair suite to give guests an up-close inspection of the latest resort fashions, by virtually floating past guests as they sipped their Veuve Clicquot and nibbled on the hotel’s infamous lobster spoons.
“Casa de Campo and Holt Renfrew are 2 very similar brands,” said Kim Hutchinson, Director of Marketing and Public Relations for Casa de Campo, “we are thrilled about our partnership with Holt’s and we expect to see some of these looks at the resort this winter!”
Barb Atkin, Vice President of Fashion Development for Holt Renfrew, remarked, “Resort wear is an exciting new direction for Holt Renfrew, so we wanted to showcase it in a different way. All of these looks have been selected for their creativity, versatility and fashion-forward design and we could not have picked a better partner in Casa De Campo as the inspirational destination.”
The collections previewed to the group of fashion journalists, influencers and industry professionals, will soon be available for sale at Holt Renfrew.
