The hotel d’Evreux at the iconic Place Vendôme opened its doors to three of the most popular Portuguese designers: Katty Xiomara, Luis Buchinho, Luis Carvalho. Each designer, showcasing their creations, had an original installation that the press bloggers and buyers could discover while they drank champagne and enjoyed the live music of DJ Dustin Muchuwicz.
