Attended by an audience of high-flying professional women, all passionate about spearheading positive cultural change in the City and beyond, the celebratory event was hosted in Harry Winston’s stunning Bond Street store. Guests were able to browse the new Winston Candy collection, while enjoying rosé champagne and a selection of delectable canapés.
Brummell‘s editor Joanne Glasbey introduced the evening, before guest speaker Dennis O’Connor, UK managing director of Harry Winston, gave a brief but illuminating talk on the history of the house.
Star quality is at the heart of both the Harry Winston legacy and the exceptional accomplishments of the nominees and finalists of Brummell‘s annual Inspirational Women listing. These women are not only role models in their own City-based organisations, but are pioneers of positive change to a wider geographical audience, proving innovation and determination are at the core of successful leadership.
The event was a fitting celebration of the achievements of such incredible women, with Harry Winston, the ‘Jeweler to the Stars’, providing a sparkling setting.
