Reflecting on the event's success, Fara Hamid, Marketing Manager of Radisson Blu Hotel Durban Umhlanga, expressed her motivation for hosting such gatherings: 'My goal when hosting our Women's Day event is always to inspire and uplift, while giving women a few hours to step away from their busy daily lives. I want them to feel celebrated, motivated, and surrounded by beauty, both in the space and in the company they share. Seeing so many ladies embrace the theme and arrive in stunning Shades of Green made this year's celebration even more special.'
As a token of appreciation, every guest left with a meticulously curated gift bag filled with goodies from a host of generous sponsors, including Veaudry, Umhlanga Laser and Aesthetics Spa, Source, Jockey, Catrice, Futurelife, Stanley, Hollard, Lelive, Aldo, Edgars Beauty, Clarins, MAC, Oceans Mall, Durban Flying Dress, and Dr. Salome Booth. The event was beautifully brought to life through the décor by KP Set Design, photography by Incredible Capture, and venue lighting by Chillifunk, all contributing to an unforgettable atmosphere.
