Represented by Showroom Seven.
The New York based luxury accessories brand CALA VELA NY showcased the Spring/Summer 2020 handbag collection at the exclusive Célon at Byrant Park Hotel.

About White Ribbon
The White Ribbon campaign is a global movement of men and boys working to end male violence against women and girls. It was formed by a group of pro feminist men in London, Ontario in November 1991 as a response to the école polytechnique massacre of female students by Marc Lépine in 1989.
