Shopping Fun with Ketel One
Ready, Set, Shop

It was a very fashionable scene late last year when as 30 local designers set up shop in the City Museum for a pre-holiday sale of designer goods. The mostly female crowd of 400 appeared to be shopping more for themselves than for presents. Fueled by delicious martinis courtesy of Ketel One vodka and delectable treats from Ridgewells caterers, shoppers socialized while weaving through the tables of jewelry, clothing, accessories, and much more. Each of the designers was from the Washington area and ranged from those who are sold at luxury retailers such as Michelle du Pont and Mindy Lam, to younger designers exhibiting for the first time. Due to the success of the event, a spring Shopping Fun night is currently being planned, so be on the lookout!
