The presenting sponsor of the lounge was Pilot Pen. They gave out fabulous erasable pens and guests were able to write encouraging messages to Dress For Success candidates. Guests received a FriXion Clicker, designed to write smooth and erase clean. We tested the pen and were very impressed. Celebrities were also gifted with MR Animal Collection of writing instruments that are designed to provoke your wild side while providing high style and delivering superior writing performance.

Partita Tequila and Svedka Vodka provided libations and DJ Max Power provided the tunes.  We enjoyed the wonderful floral designs from Floral Heights Flowers and Events.  Bloom Nation also contributed to the chic aestetic. It is the “Etsy for Flowers”, allowing you to shop directly with over 2,500 top local artisan florists in more than 3,000 cities nationwide.
