In line with Veuve Clicquot polo matches in New York and Los Angeles, the spotlight is on understated but elegant daywear in chic colour blocking ranging from sunburst yellow to blush-pink. Guests are encouraged to wear comfortable shoes for the much-anticipated divot-stomping during half time of the polo match. This year ‘Best Dressed’ falls away, conforming with the international celebration of polo with focus on the game, social and business networking and the Veuve Clicquot lifestyle experience.
What’s new at the 2019 event is the extension of the VIP area where guests will enjoy the luxury offering of Veuve Cliquot Yellow Label as signature drink, canape service, gourmet grazing tables, entertainment, VIP parking and of course a riveting 15-goal polo match. Colour has always been at the heart of Veuve Clicquot and is a source of the champagne’s creativity and inspiration. This is the motivation behind 2019’s “Colourama” theme that promises several artistic interpretations of the Veuve Clicquot heritage and a live fashion experience against the background of the game.
