Event Recap: Holland & Sherry Celebrates Cullman & Kravis After Hours at the DDB

Holland & Sherry presented the first-ever fabric collection by Cullman & Kravis at a stylish event last week featuring C&K signature cocktails, piquant hors d'oeuvres and of course, neck ties and outfits made from the new Cullman & Kravis fabrics.


"I've been so excited about this launch and about taking this huge step," said Elissa Cullman, interior designer and co-founder of Cullman & Kravis. "I shop at Holland & Sherry more than anywhere else because I love what they have and I love to work with them. There was no other showroom that I wanted to work with once I decided to launch a fabric collection, it was an obvious choice."




We asked Elissa what the inspiration was for her fabrics, and why she decided to take this venture.


"I really felt there was a need in the industry for what this collection offers," Elissa said. "I wasn't finding everything that I was looking for and even though this collection is slightly different from Holland & Sherry's overall look, I wanted it to be a partnership with them. My inspiration was really the need that I saw."




"We love working with Elissa and we couldn't be more excited about this collaboration," said Bryan Dicker, President of the Holland & Sherry Interiors department. "Elissa really understands fabrics and the needs of our clients. We've been working with her for years and we couldn't be more thrilled to carry her collection."


Bryan then proudly showed us the tie he and other Holland & Sherry associates were wearing, made from one of the new collection's fabrics. "These were all made from Cullman & Kravis fabrics, and make sure you look around because there's a little girl her whose dress is also made from the fabrics!" said Bryan.




A few of the notable guests in attendance included top editors Margaret Russell, Erin Swift, Eugenia Santiesteban Soto, Nanjoo Joung, and Orli Ben-Dor; and top designers Christopher Maya and Shari Markbreiter.
