Mercedes-Benz is a huge supporter of fashion events worldwide, as what’s more fashionable than something that’s good-looking and high performance? They support fashion events in over 30 countries and have title sponsorship of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Weeks in Berlin, Sydney, Madrid and Tokyo, along with major sponsorship of Fashion Weeks in Paris, London and Milan.
Last night at the French Kitchen at Auckland’s French Cafe restaurant, they announced they will enter into the second year as an Elite Partner of New Zealand Fashion Week for 2015 and the ‘Mercedes-Benz Presents’ designer NZ Fashion Week 2015 is Kate Sylvester.
The partnership will see Kate Sylvester’s Autumn Winter 2016 show kick off fashion week. Thread always looks forward to the Kate Sylvester show as a highlight of each fashion week – read our feature on it from 2014 here.
We’ll also be seeing a fleet of Mercedes-Benz cars as the official event vehicles to transport VIP guests throughout Fashion Week in style.
