Dorothy Perkins, one of the biggest fashion retailers in United Kingdom, opened its first store in Cebu recently. Located at the first level of Paseo Ciudad in Ayala Center Cebu, the launch was a fun afternoon filled with treats and surprises as stylish ladies welcomed the much-awaited high street fashion house.
Hosted by Blinky de Leon, the event was graced by Cebu’s distinguished personalities while top executive of Robinsons Specialty Retailers Inc. (RSSI) led by General Manager Mina Quizon and Group Brand Manager Sharon Ugot flew in for the occasion.
“Dorothy Perkins has been around for a decade. We’ve been providing women with the latest fashion that fits perfectly to their character, embracing all styles and sizes. And what a good way to celebrate our 10th year than opening our first store in Cebu.” shared Ms. Quizon.

Throughout the afternoon, a question-and-answer segment was held, where P2,000 worth of gift certificates were given to winners.
