The luxury identity of the Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino in Messinia is enhanced with a touch of haute couture through its new collaboration with esteemed Greek fashion designer Mary Katrantzou, who was appointed as its first Social Fan Ambassador.
The first Mandarin Oriental in Greece and Katrantzou sealed their collaboration for the next two years with an impressive caftan, specially designed for the guests of the resort marking a unique blend of hospitality and fashion.
According to the resort’s management, as part of this campaign, Mary Katrantzou showcases her talent, infusing the resort with the distinctive style and elegance of her creations.
“We are confident that this collaboration will not only enhance the overall guest experience with a creative fashion approach but will also highlight the beauty of our resort in a unique way, enchanting travelers from around the world,” said Raul Levis, General Manager of Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino.
A fashionable partnership for a good cause
Katrantzou crafted this resort wear with her unparalleled skill, drawing inspiration from the luxurious yet serene environment of the resort.
This resulted in a special caftan featuring Mandarin Oriental’s color palette, embodying versatility and timelessness. Its relaxed lines mirror the comfortable and sophisticated surroundings of the resort, making it an ideal choice for discerning guests.
The hand-fan, Mandarin’s exclusive symbol, was integrated with the colors of Mary Katrantzou’s Spring-Summer 2024 collection, chosen to complement the brand’s palette. The result is a garment that serves not only as an elegant caftan but also as an unforgettable memento, reminding guests of the wonderful times spent at the Mandarin Oriental.
“Collaborating with the Mandarin Oriental, Costa Navarino offers a unique opportunity to broaden our creative horizons and elevate the lifestyle character of both the resort and my brand,” said Mary Katrantzou.
The caftan will be available at The Spa at Mandarin Oriental with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the Association of Friends of Children with Cancer “ELPIDA”.
According to the resort’s management, the collaboration not only underscores the connection between high fashion and hospitality but also promotes the values of sharing and giving.
