Lydia Hearst for Puma Launch Party

Friday 30 November 2007 at 12:46 pm The 60 Thompson Hotel was packed out on Tuesday Night for the launch of model/designer Lydia Hearst’s second handbag range in collaboration with Puma. Lydia stated, "I couldn't do just one bag. When I sat down for the initial meeting with Puma, that was my first question, because they wanted me to do something that expressed my own personality, and I'm very versatile. I'm not the same person today that I will be tomorrow-I'm constantly changing. Even though it's the same bag, they're all completely different, with all different materials, all different accents, and details."
Hosted by Paper magazine the guests sipped cocktails while the canapés where chased around the room.
