FLORENCE - On April 21, the Condé Nast International Luxury Conference kicked off with a welcome reception held at the Four Seasons Florence.
Attendees and brand delegates mingled in the Four Seasons’ Gherardesca Garden as a precursor to the conference’s main agenda programming April 22-23. In addition to small bites provided by Four Seasons, alcoholic beverage distributor Diageo served a series of craft cocktails using spirits from its Reserve portfolio such as Johnnie Walker Blue Label whisky, Ketel One vodka and Tangueray N° Ten gin.
Hosted by Condé Nast International, in partnership with Swarovski and Place Vendome, and lead by Vogue International editor Suzy Mendes, the conference has brought together various speakers from across verticals to discuss the issues facing the industry and how the concept of luxury is evolving (see story).
