One of the hottest events in the Essex social calendar, the Duke of Essex Polo Trophy, will take place on 9th July at Gaynes Park Estate in Epping, Essex. This is an annual event which, as well as the titular polo match between Britain and South America, encompasses all sorts of other entertainment and attracts a host of celebrities. There is a family fun day with a fun fair, jousting, aerobatic displays, a celebrity mini polo match, show jumping and lots more. VIP packages include charity auctions, DJ sets, and popular bands and comedians, as well as a 4 course luncheon created by Gregg Wallace. Guests this year include Kid Creole and the Coconuts, comedian Jack Whitehall and Radio 1 DJs Seb Fontaine, and Judge Jules. Rapidly becoming the place to be seen, this year you can rub shoulders with stars such as Peter Andre, and cast members from The Only Way Is Essex and Britain’s Next Top Model.

Zee and Co will once again be involved in this event via our Loughton store, who will be providing both men’s and ladies outfits for the exclusive catwalk show which takes place in the VIP area during the 5-course luncheon.  Labels being showcased this year include Dolce & Gabbana, Halston Heritage and Gina Shoes for the ladies, and men’s collections from Vivienne Westwood, Paul Smith, Orlebar Brown and Polo Ralph Lauren.

Michelle Johnson, manager of Zee & Co’s Loughton store ladies department says, “We are really excited about the fashion show at the Duke of Essex polo event. It’s going to be a great chance to showcase some of our new labels including Dolce & Gabbana and Vivienne Westwood. We’ve picked some great music for the show – Kasabian’s “On Fire” and U2’s “Sexy Boots”! It will be great to see the guests such as Peter Andre, Rod Stewart and The Only Way Is Essex crew enjoying the show.”
