The Issue: The Metquarter is Liverpool's most
exclusive shopping centre, housing 46 units with brands such as
Timberland
and Hugo
Boss. It also includes a 17,000 sq ft Flannels anchor store, which
stocks many designer collections such as Dolce and Gabbana and
Prada.
In August Paver Smith hosted a press day to
showcase many of new Autumn/Winter lines for the various brands
housed there.
The Objective: Our objective was to engage with as
many fashion journalists and magazine editors as possible and to
get them to attend our event. This enabled us to set up many
opportunities in the local press as well as the regional and
national glossy magazines.
The Results: The press day was a fantastic success
with many journalists attending from both regional newspapers and
magazines.
The overall response to the new autumn/winter collections was very
positive and some definite themes were identified for future
fashionistas.
Particular items of interest included the DKNY jeans collection as well as the
various leather pieces from Firetrap.
With regards to accessories, Mikey was a favourite with
their colourful new line as well as the silver postcard from
Links of London and the
various quirky items from Azendi.
Footwear made a huge statement this season with a range of bold
colours and textures - Kate
Kuba scored highly with the journalists as well as LK Bennett.
We look forward to hosting another spectacular press day in
January.
