Visa Premium cardholders in Asia Pacific will be among the first to get an inside peek into the next season’s trends with Fashion Week-themed travel packages from Visa and luxury travel experts Quintessentially Escape.
The top fashion houses reveal their Spring/Summer 2011 collections at Fashion Weeks across the world from September to October this year and Visa Premium cardholders will have access to the most glamorous of these: Paris, Milan and London. As part of the Visa 2010 Premium Access program, cardholders can choose from a range of fashion travel itineraries or design a tailored travel package with assistance from a team of Quintessentially Escape advisors.
Somboon Krobteeranon, country manager, Thailand, Visa said: “Paris, Milan and London Fashion Weeks are must-see annual events for style-conscious trend watchers in Asia Pacific. Their Visa Premium card is their ticket to house seats at these world-famous catwalk events and at many other major highlights on the global fashion calendar.”
Between fashion shows and shopping jaunts during the London Fashion Week, Visa Premium cardholders can also choose to wind down at some of the city’s most prestigious and trendy spots, including the Ivy Club, London’s famous private members’ dining club and celebrity haunt. A night out at the Ivy can be arranged upon request when Visa cardholders take up the Fashion Week travel package
True-blue fashionistas can pay homage to the icon of elegance, Coco Chanel, on a fashion history tour of Paris. As part of the Chanel package, Visa Premium cardholders stay in the same Ritz Hotel suite where Coco Chanel once resided and worked for 15 years, as well as visit the boutique that started her empire. The tour also includes a private tour of Chanel’s jewelry collection at the brand’s flagship store.
Visa Premium cardholders who want to holiday along the fashionable French Riviera can choose to make an entrance in Monaco with their own private helicopter. Cardholders can check into the beautiful Hotel Metropole for some luxurious pampering. They can zip off on a tour of the city in a top-of-the-line Aston Martin before joining other VIP high rollers at the world famous Monte Carlo casino for a night on the town.
Visa Premium cardholders who enjoy keeping their finger on the fashion pulse can sign up for quarterly trend alerts with the latest news from fashion runways around the world. Visa also offers personal shopping services via Visa Concierge, which means an updated wardrobe is just a telephone call away.
The Visa 2010 Premium Access program offers a wide range of travel, golf and lifestyle benefits for those who want the finer things in life. For details on the program, please visit www.visa-asia.com/premium.
