Even though this week's weather pattern would seem to dictate otherwise, summer days are gone and so are beach house pop-ups—replaced by retail pop-ups like Little Black Dress. Fiji Water partnered with H. Stern to host an intimate dinner for 30 on Tuesday at the shopping pop-up in West Hollywood to underscore the brand's relationships with different industries and play up an image of quality. “It was the unique nature of the space that made me hold it here and not a restaurant or hotel,” said Fiji Water event manager Greg Sato.
The theme of the event was “A Renaissance of Simplicity,” meant to evoke the salon-style gatherings of bygone eras, during which guests discussed important issues. Attendees included a group of influential people across various industries, including designer Diana Resnick, Nanette Lepore C.E.O. Heather Pech, Interscope Records marketing head Chris Clancy, and Modern Luxury president Alan Klein, who assumed hosting duties.
Nobu Matsuhisa designed and prepared a seven-course meal, served by his restaurant staff on his tableware. Staff served Grey Goose cocktail pairings with each course. Invitees sat at a long, dramatic table with black linens and custom centerpieces from designer Krislyn Komorov that included flower arrangements adorned with jewelry provided by H. Stern. The jeweler also loaned pieces to attending guests.
