So last night The Vic got a full makeover: lights strung up, the cabin turned into VIP only, and the really cool large prints of the photos from the first Don’t Walk photo shoot, well lit and on display throughout the venue. It was the perfect size venue for this exclusive event, and the general vibe was that everyone was there to drink, see the models, and see the theme that was unveiled for their ad campaign. The African safari thing looks great in the photos, but would have been cool to see the models dressed up at the launch, or maybe just a more unique theme (Bongo Ball, Refet Afrique…). In the VIP area there was no shortage of free shots of sambuca and models walking around with bottles of sourz to pour down people’s throats, and there were great deals on unique cocktail variations, named after some of the models, at both bars. People were definitely there to dance, and the music was great aside from technical problems midway through the night, but nobody seemed to care. It definitely felt like they wanted it to feel like an exclusive event, with all the windows on the front doors covered and shut, as with the door to the VIP section. But props to the committee for being able to makeover The Vic to make it feel that exclusive and edgy. It was a great night overall, and in my opinion might have ended a bit too soon, nobody seemed to want to leave when the lights started flashing, and I guess there weren’t enough Thursday night after parties since hoards of people just stood around outside The Vic after finally being ushered out. The bar is now officially set for all subsequent fashion show launch parties. Can’t wait to see all the pictures from the Don’t Walk Create photo booth, after all drunk kids love having their picture taken.
