(PRESS RELEASE) LAS VEGAS, NV — Joy and excitement resonated throughout the Wynn Las Vegas as prominent retailers, influential media and exceptional designers and brands gathered for the 2022 event. An enthusiasm to reunite in person was apparent and the shared appreciation for excellence in design and craftsmanship established a celebratory reunion among this tight-knit community.

“It feels fantastic to be back at the Wynn Las Vegas,” enthused Gannon Brousseau, COUTURE director and EVP, Emerald. “Our new event space is a phenomenal backdrop for the exceptional collections of our talented designers and brands and having the opportunity to enjoy one another’s company in person is invaluable.”

Mimicking that sentiment was Yael Reinhold from Reinhold Jewelers in Puerto Rico, “The show has such positive energy! Everyone is so happy to be back and really eager to buy! I am seeing so much incredible jewelry; I’m delighted to be here.”

“COUTURE is the highlight of our year,” said Peggy Buckhan of Steve Quick Jeweler in Chicago. “I love seeing all of the designers we carry and getting a first look at their most recent collections. It’s also so fun discovering new talent. And as always, COUTURE is fabulous, everything is amazing.”

The salons, ballrooms and villas saw steady traffic throughout the day and the exhibiting designers and brands were excited that the retailers they were meeting with were motivated to place orders. “It’s been absolutely phenomenal,” explained Wendy Adeler Hall of Jorge Adeler. “We’re seeing so many great stores and there’s a lot of intentional buying. There’s so much great energy and people are serious about restocking and getting back to business.”

“We have been busy all day, it’s been so amazing,” said Meredith Young, an exhibitor in the event’s Design Atelier. “I’m so excited for the rest of the show!”

Retiring? Let Wilkerson Do the Heavy Lifting

Retirement can be a great part of life. As Nanji Singadia puts it, “I want to retire and enjoy my life. I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
