Packing for sunshine or embracing the joy of minimalist style closer to home, summer is about swapping out knits for linens and feeling the excitement of warmer climes in the air. While we patiently wait for the sunshine to arrive, there was no stopping us from celebrating all things summer at our Symons Summer Party last month. We were delighted to be joined by Rebecca Clouston, personal stylist, and Fiona Strang, TWC's Brand Communications Director who delivered an insightful masterclass on summer styling. Our customers enjoyed bespoke cocktails from our friends at Double Dutch, relaxed at our mini glow stations, gathered expert skincare advice from the team at Sarah Chapman, and chatted with Rebecca as she shared her summer secrets to creating confidence through styling. Our Brand Marketing team works incredibly hard behind the scenes to help our customers feel inspired and valued. We are always offering a range of exciting events and workshops, so stay tuned for more to come. Thank you to everyone who attended and made the evening so memorable. We can’t wait to welcome you to our next event!
