MODEL GUESTS

It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it&

Merck Sharp & Dohme's Propecia product manager Mike Taylor (left) and sales and marketing director Mark Vanderwee were part of the celebrity audience at the Gubb & Mackie charity ball at Government House, Auckland, to launch L'Oreal New Zealand Fashion Week.

It is Merck Sharp & Dohme's first foray into fashion sponsorship and the first show of fashion week provided the company with the opportunity to rub shoulders with some big name brands.

Guests included Governor General Dame Silvia Cartwright, television personalities, doyens of the fashion industry and international and local media.

Propecia played a low-key role as a supporting sponsor, but made sure everyone "got the message" via business cards strategically placed in the upmarket portaloos outside the lavishly decoratede marquee where guests danced, wined and dined after the show.
