 HE fragrance industry celebrated the sixteenth annual
Art of Packaging awards, raising a record $350,000 for the Marc
Rosen Scholarship at Pratt Institute.
Joan Collins stepped in as emcee at the last minute when Liza
Minnelli got the flu. Pratt president Dr. Thomas Schutte,
Luxe Pack president Pierre-Yves Maisonneuve, and Marc
Rosen, the extraordinary perfume bottle designer who teaches
his art at a Pratt master class, were the hosts.
This year’s honoree, Neil Fiske, CEO of Bath and Body
Works and author of Trading Up, was introduced by
his executive vice president Camille McDonald. The
scholarship winners represented the international component of
Rosen’s graduate course: Ki Man Bae, Amie I. Lin, Annah
Syta and Se Ra Yoon.
Among the guests were Joan’s husband Percy Gibson, and
son Sacha Newley with his wife Angela; Arlene
Dahl with her gorgeous children Christopher Barker and Carol
McCarthy; last year’s winner Andrea Robinson, CMO of
Estee Lauder.
