David Emanuel launches collection at Morfa Shopping Park
Friday, April 4th, 2008Celebrity Couturier David Emanuel celebrated the launch of his new summer clothing range for Bonmarché with a special appearance at the Bonmarché store at The Junction’s Morfa Shopping Park last Friday. Lucky shopper, Audrey Davies won a fashion make-over on the day and was treated to a personal styling session by the man himself.
Susan Moore, Bonmarché Store Manager said, “We really enjoyed having David in store and it was fun watching him choose an outfit for Audrey Davies. The reaction to the clothes has been fantastic and we’re already looking forward to the next phase of the collection.”
The premium collection is available at the top 125 Bonmarché stores and to celebrate the launch, David has begun a tour of the UK where he will visit 17 of these stores promoting his new clothing range.
David Emanuel, a graduate from the Royal College of Art has designed fabulous clothes for members of the British and European royal families and some of the world’s most beautiful women including HRH The Duchess of Kent, Jane Seymour, Joan Collins, Ivana Trump, Madonna and Elizabeth Taylor. His most famous commission was to co-design the wedding dress for Lady Diana Spencer for her marriage to Prince Charles.
Mike Dee, Asset Manager at The Junction, said, “We provide customers with a wide range of shops, from fashion stores to DIY. Retail Parks are changing and are offering a new experience - the launch of Bonmarche’s latest fashion range reflects this. Shoppers now come to the park expecting to have a day out. They purchase something for the house as well as browse the latest fashions then they usually stop for a bite to eat at one of the food outlets before heading home.”
Stores at the Morfa Shopping Park include B&Q, Boots, TK Maxx, Sports World, New Look, Next, Game, Carphone Warehouse, Starbucks, KFC, Frankie & Benny’s, Pizza Hut and much more.
