Clive Christian Showroom Opening
When I received my invitation to attend the grand opening event of the new Clive Christian Showroom in Charlotte, NC in March, I was ecstatic! Not only am I a huge fan of the fragrances (No. 1 being my scent), but having had the opportunity to speak with Clive’s daughter, Victoria, recently made it a bit surreal for me. An elite crowd, sipping cosmos and dining on fine Hors d’oeuvres, gazed in amazement at the gorgeous display of kitchens - where it all started for Clive, his signature being the chandelier. I have to admit, it makes me want to hang a fantastic chandelier over my kitchen island and back light my walls (above and below the cabinets) in pink!
It was a pleasure to bring my friends Jeffre Scott, Kara Icard and Michel VanDevender. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening, mingling with everyone and getting our pictures taken by the Charlotte News & Observer. And we made sure to be in the right place and the right time when the fragrances were unveiled, for what seemed like only 10 minutes.
And let’s talk about the unbelievable cars on sight. Having subscribed to European Car and Driver in my 20s, I can attest to my love of beautiful moving masterpieces. The Lamborghini and the Rolls-Royce were oh-so-carefully guarded. However, that didn’t stop us from snapping photos!
Look for my interview with Victoria Christian in the upcoming weeks. This glance back in history will surely have you amazed.
