Hostesses from LOLA at Harrods VIP event

Last Friday our gorgeous team of LOLA hostesses worked as Harrods in-house personal shopping assistants. The store was opened for selected guests only and our meet and greet staff welcomed 100 guests at the entrance of Harrods and on the door to the Penthouse. 

The VIP guests had music on their shopping night by Urban Soul Orchestra. Our hostesses were handing out Champagne Krug during the reception and guiding guests to their personal shopping booths. The guests had their personal shopping assistants showing them around the store. 

Our beautiful hostesses were serving and guiding the guests throughout the night and handed out goody bags as they were leaving. There was also a four part singing group singing Christmas carols on the way out. LOLA hostesses told us that the event at Harrods was a ‘unique experience’ for them and from what we heard they did a great job!

Promotional staff from LOLA promoting Monster Slippers

Check out the pictures from a super-fun event we worked at last week! Lauren, Niki and James from our promotional staff team had a great time promoting the Monster Slippers.

The client has asked us for ‘outgoing, confident people who will be happy to engage with people wearing just a form-fitting suit’ – as always we were happy to oblige by providing the client with the perfect people for their event!

Promotional staff from LOLA had to walk around Oxford Street dressed in nude-coloured body suits and a pair of Monster Slippers. Our promo staff were chatting to people and having lots of fun with the product.

After the event we were pleased to hear from the client saying: ‘All three were punctual, professional and delightful. They engaged with the public politely and with great humour. They did a fabulous job.’

Once again, our fabulous LOLA team delivered the results - well done!
