Post #7: You (Wish You Were) Invited!

When: Today, May 18, from 5 to 8 p.m.
Where: Hu's Wear, 2906 M Street NW; 202-342-2020. 
What: Celine Spring/Resort 2012 Trunk Show

You know its an exclusive trunk show when only special invitations were sent out. 
I'm sure most of you may have seen flyers at local boutiques for a trunk show for up and coming designers, however, now - its different. Now, it has become a social event for high end designers and wealthy housewives. Being a huge fan of Celine merchandise, I remembered back a few years ago when this event occurred and I dreamed of one day being invited to something like this.  Only the absolute top Celine clients were invited - where they got free alcohol and macaroons in hopes of big spending. 

Here are some pictures of the suare:

  1. I totally agree, just like how fashion shows are changing so are trunk shows in a number of different ways. And let's hope one day you get invited one these shows and share your experience.

  2. Wow! I definitely wish I was invited to this! I did not know that Celine would offer 'Trunkshows', I always thought that designers have their runway shows and their most exclusive clients would be invited to the show.

  3. Yes, I do agree that now, more so than ever, trunk shows are becoming more of a social event. Designers offer orderves and champagne, creating a comfortable environment for high end clientele to enjoy, ultimately hoping that it will help encourage a purchase.
