Online luxury fashion retailer, Avenue 32, and the popular blog, The Overdressed by Dana Al Khalifa, will host a three-day shopping event, from October 22nd to 24th, at Oliveto restaurant in Qudaibiya, Manama (Bahrain).
This is the second time that the UK-based e-commerce site and the Bahrain-based blogger pair up this year. Thanks to the success of the one-day event held in March, the shopping experience will now be spread over three days. October 22nd will be an invite-only event, whereas over the next two days, the event will be open to all.
The fashion retailer’s team of stylists will be on hand to advise customers on this season’s must haves from different designers, such as Roksanda Ilincic, Derek Lam, Aperlai, Olympia Le-Tan, and Dubai-based Nathalie Trad. Dubbed the “Clothes Concierge,” Avenue 32 is a specialist shopping service, which offers cleaning, repairing, and general upkeep of luxury goods, as well as alterations, out of season storage, and even wardrobe detoxing.
Guga Filho, the client development manager at Avenue 32, and Dana Al Khalifa will both be at the event to offer styling advice and share tips on how to mix and match brands and trends.
“It is not possible to touch, try, and experience pieces when you purchase [them] online. At our event, we provide our shoppers with the opportunity to do just that and make the virtual a reality for three days, which is not something online retailers normally do,” the Overdressed blogger told Style.com/Arabia. “We will provide a real shopping platform to give customers a feel of what Avenue 32 is all about, so that their future purchases are made with ease and understanding of the quality that the site offers.”
Guests will be treated to jazz music and canapés as they shop.
