With the actors and writers strikes settled and Hollywood getting back in the swing of winter awards season, it was time to celebrate at the two-day DPA luxury gifting lounge for nominees, presenters and other VIPs.
Held at the landmark Luxe Sunset Boulevard Hotel located at the intersection of Sunset and the 405, the gifting lounge was the brainchild of DPA’s Nathalie Dubois, who has years of experience producing luxury events for all the major awards shows and at the Cannes and Toronto Film Festivals.
