Marking the shades of summer in style, Wesley Allen gave away two pair of designer sunglasses to celebrate its launch of its broad Sunbrella product introduction earlier this month at the Las Vegas Market.
Two retailers were the lucky winners of the Fendi women’s and Givenchy men’s eyewear, each valued at $300.
Joan Duling Bushé, owner of Alderman Bushé Interiors in Thousand Oaks, Calif., won the women’s glasses while Michael Heuser, owner of Heuser’s Furniture, Mattress and Design Center in Sonora, Calif., won the men’s.
Wesley Allen, a manufacturer of handcrafted iron furniture, hosted a social media contest to commemorate its partnership with Glen Raven. The successful contest played out on their three social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. The company offers stain-resistant, fade-resistant Sunbrella fabrics on its upholstered beds, bar stools and casual dining seats.
“We are thrilled that we could celebrate our partnership with Glen Raven and summer in such a creative manner during the Las Vegas Market,” said Chris Henning, Wesley Allen President. “Just as our Wesley Allen Sunbrella collection is built to last, we know our winning partners will enjoy their designer summer shades for years to come.”
Wesley Allen offers 12 of Sunbrella’s top-selling fabrics including neutrals, a variety of plain base cloths and other simple patterns to accentuate the company’s 18 upholstered iron beds, 34 bar stools and seating for its 18 casual dining groups. Additional fabric designs will be added to the mix.
