Couturing are excited to announce that Melbourne’s GPO, Belvedere and BlackBerry are the official sponsors for the launch of Couturing.com at the exclusive “Une affaire à la mode” party in early February.
Originally starting out as a hub for postal services, MGPO was converted into a beautiful retail space in October 2004. Retaining many of the important heritage aspects of its original neo-Renaissance design, MGPO now offers a unique retail experience in the heart of Melbourne, housing some of Australia’s most exciting labels. The perfect location for the launch of Couturing, guests will be taken to the secret venue on arrival.
Guests of Couturing will be treated to a range of drinks from Belvedere with two signature cocktails being created for the event. Long time fans of Belvedere, Couturing have been obsessed with the worlds first “super premium vodka” long before we noticed their partnership with Vogue at the launch of their iPad app and well before the Belvedere Red party. It is so fantastic that such an exclusive alcohol brand is choosing to get behind such wonderful causes such as the fight against HIV/AIDS and also in their generous support of Couturing.
But how will you be viewing Couturing.com at the “Une affaire à la mode” party? Once upon a time, when you heard the word ‘blackberry’, you automatically thought of the fruit however now, thanks to clever marketing, the word BlackBerry has become synonymous with technologically advanced handheld devices and of course – the fashion industry. The BlackBerry has become a staple in the wardrobe for many and the new BlackBerry PlayBook will be no exception. Boasting a super sleek design, dual HD cameras and Wi-Fi, the BlackBerry is the perfect accessory for any fashion lover and attendees will have the chance to play with the BlackBerry PlayBook during the launch to view this exciting new tablet and the Couturing website.
