It was the kind of Wednesday night Social Gals and Gents dream of: Premier luxury emporiumHolt Renfrew opens its doors for a private evening of shopping, gorgeous food and drink as fashion shows dazzle with the best of spring fashion, DJ Thomas H. brings the tunes, and the crowd is as stylish and fabulous as it gets. Most impressive however was the motivation for the night: To raise funds in support of The Fondation Jeunes en Tête and Douglas Foundation, brainbaby of Let’s Bond, a remarkable collective founded by a pack of extraordinary young professional Montrealers with a conscience.
