Cat Footwear, an AMP3 PR client, has taken over The Corner Pop-Up space on Lexington & 47th Street in Midtown Manhattan for the entire month of October. The last few weeks of the month we’ve been hosting a series of private PR & consumer facing events to introduce the brand to NYC.

Models Presenting SS15 Collection from Cat Footwear.

On October 8th & 9th we hosted the “White Heat” SS15 Presentation attended by editors, bloggers, and Cat Footwear retailers.  16 fully styled models were on hand to preview the SS15 collection while guests enjoyed cocktails & canapés, as well as music spun by DJ Jasper Stapleton.

October 11th was the “International Day of the Girl” shopping event at the pop-up. The International Day of the Girl is a day declared by the UN and intended to bring awareness to gender inequalities and injustices around the world.  A portion of all Cat Footwear sales on this day were donated to E.P.I.C., the clean drinking water charity run by our Earthmovers, Alexi Panos & Tennille Amor.
