PRESS POP-UP EVENT

What better place to hold this than the shopping capital of Sydney Pitt St Mall. Our guests were invited to a light breakfast filled with refreshing juices, strawberry fruit bowls while they listened to a short presentation, introducing the new Kate Spade New York fragrance in the consumer pop up store.

In keeping with the Kate Spade theme, we partnered with the renowned Sydney cake specialist KOI Dessert, who created a delightful and inspired gourmet cake with the key fragrance notes; from the intense floral heart note of rose essence combined with sweet wild strawberries. Too delicious to eat in one go!
