Anyone
remember the glory days of luxe, good manners and stealth wealth?
Seems that former Lane
Crawford president Bonnie Brooks remembers those glamour days and
attention to detail and commissioned Yabu Pushelberg
to interpret her team's vision of contemporary luxe to
create The Room at The Bay.
We loved the
Platinum Suite and the box! Yeah, finally someone in Canada remembers
beautiful storage! Zegna and Lane Crawford do solid boxes - 太太
still has those and those orange Hermes boxes and blue Tiffany ones.
Our
invitation was from Suzanne Timmins, Vice President, Fashion Direction and
Nicholas Mellamphy, Creative Director of The Room. 太太
was escorted by Chief Adventurer Elaine Quan,
Sr. Manager, Public Relations
based in Toronto and vivacious Vancouver Store Director Dana Hall
with 太太
Sandi Lee who took this
picture and is our Vancouver Hello!
太太
TaiTai ceo.
Think
world-class offerings of an array of talent designers - some new to the
scene and other more established labels like Azzedine Alaļa,
Ralph Lauren Black Label,
Armani Collezione, Balmain and Halston with Proenza Schouler, Alexander
McQ,
Dsquared2, Erdem and Thakoon in stunning surrounds that we are used to
seeing in London, Tokyo, New York or Hong Kong. And the staff
is not snobby or stuffy and surprisingly down-to-earth for a group that
caters to high net worth individuals.
