‘The Montis Moments event in Dongen, in 2001, was one of the highlights. 600 international relations from all over the world attended. 50 members of the international press were also invited. And all our designers, of course. It felt like one big Montis family. Customers were surprised with a grand presentation, with beautifully styled settings. Montis exhibited the complete collection and everything was colour-themed. Catering and live music underlined the great atmosphere.’
