  • Chic Innovator's Event Diaries

    Welcome to the first episode of Chic Innovator's Event Diaries — a new series taking you behind the scenes of the events, people, and moments that make up this lifestyle.

    This episode: DiscoHeadsLive's Release: All White Party, celebrating Harry G & Vitalii's birthday. Arabel was asked to emcee the night and ended up diving into the marketing too — IG stories, reels, and getting the word out. Friends came in from all over, some driving in from the suburbs, to celebrate together.

    Inside: the ask, the promo push, the night itself with DiscoHeadsLive performing live, and a look back at why nights like this matter.

    🎶 Featuring: Harry G & DiscoHeadsLive
