The newly refashioned Upper East Side Surrey hotel announces its partnership with Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi to exclusively showcase the talented designer?s new collection of luxury jewelry, The Padma Collection. Further highlighting the hotel?s esteemed location amongst quintessential Madison Avenue retailers, the partnership offers guests a first glimpse of the The Padma Collection?s Fall/Winter 2010 line of elegantly unique pieces inspired by her international travels. Available now through March 2011, hotel guests may also purchase The Padma Collection directly through The Surrey?s concierge.
A long-time supporter of The Surrey, Padma returned to the hotel following its recent $ 60+ million refashion and was inspired by the hotel?s Beaux-art design and in-house collection of modern art. This inspiration sparked Padma?s desire to showcase her line of jewelry, comprised of unconventional pieces with unique history and also available for purchase at Bergdorf Goodman. The Surrey is the first hotel to partner with The Padma Collection and feature the exclusive line.
?We are excited to introduce our partnership with Padma Lakshmi,? says The Surrey hotel?s General Manager Spencer Wadama. ?Padma?s jewelry collection includes pieces that are luxurious, yet unique -- which is exactly what our guests look for.?
Padma Lakshmi is the host of Bravo?s Emmy winning ?Top Chef? and has experienced a prolific career in fashion as a model for a decade. ?For me, whether its food or fashion, it?s about taste; about curating the best of what I?ve hunted and gathered from around the world to create something beautiful for the senses,? said Padma. ?I love The Surrey hotel. It is a place that has served as a stylish home away from home when I needed it, and I?m delighted that I can be back at the hotel through featuring my jewelry collection in their lovely armoire.?
