Pink was back with its popular ladies’ luncheon in collaboration with Satariano this week – a combination of food delights, fine furnishing and fun fashion, offering a feast for all the senses.

Parts of the stunning showroom in Msida Valley Road were transformed into a catwalk, and the backstage action, hairstyling and make-up, were thrust into the spotlight as guests had the opportunity to mingle among the models, watching them get ready and picking up tips on how to create the season’s chosen look from the experts.

They got up close and personal with the brands of the fashion show – Coccinelle, Lilly Mae, Monsoon, Parfois and Solaris – as each set up a shop-in-shop on a floor of the vast showroom, making it their home and bringing the bedrooms and living spaces on display to life.

Make-up application was demonstrated by artists from Franks, using Guerlain, and top hairstylist Neville Roman Zammit from Nev Hair Salon showed how to create a slick wet look, with a twist, using Kevin Murphy products.

But it did not stop there. Guests also had the choice to savour an array of charcuterie, cheese and other delectable items from Carmelo Abela, which engaged Simply Local to set up an inviting and attractive table, including Casa Modena, Monini and Parmareggio products.

The rooftop was also the catwalk for the fashion brands, which displayed bright and colourful summer looks ahead of the hot season, to the live chill-out tunes of The Eggheads band and their feel-good vibe.

The Pink lunch party is a networking event that focuses on aesthetics, beauty and style, in the belief that bringing together the best brands – in this case in the field of furniture, fashion and food – can create a stimulating environment and promote products and services in the most effective way.

It was also supported by Porsche, Medirect, Korres, eCabs and Maison Perrier, which launched its non-alcoholic, chic and sophisticated cocktail-inspired beverage at the party.
