Bergdorf Goodman celebrates the exclusive launch of Peter Do Handbags

To ensure the first day of NYFW was celebrated in style Bergdorf Goodman hosted a celebratory dinner in honor of designer Peter Do, whose fledgling brand has exclusively launched its handbag line with the legendary retailer. Joining Do, the brand’s co-founders, and BG’s Linda Fargo were guests, such as Christie Tyler, Anh Duong, Phillip Lim, Steph Shiu, Luke Meagher, Recho Omondi, and Eugene Rabkin. For the occasion, the BG Restaurant was transformed into a pared-back, white canvas, with walls draped in white muslin and a parachute from the brand’s inaugural runway show last season. The menu and table adored with tropical floral and fruits were all inspired by Do’s Viatnamese heritage, and the overall soft, clean, and luxe aesthetic spoke to the ethos of the Peter Do brand. Over dinner, Fargo spoke passionately about the department store’s buying team’s excitement over discovering the “young and sophisticated” brand during the early days and how they instantly knew they had witnessed something special. The sleek range of black and white Peter Do handbags lands in store and online later this month.
