More than 80 senior retail figures gathered at a sparkling drinks reception last month to toast Retail Week’s Be Inspired campaign as the initiative continues to gain momentum.

Hobbs’ chief executive Meg Lustman and incoming Karen Millen boss Beth Butterwick provided their words of wisdom as a host of emerging talent and campaign ambassadors looked on.

For those who didn’t attend here are a few shots from the event to give you a flavour.
