Peruvian Independance Day Party

The Peruvian Independence Day party was hopping at Poste Brasserie at the Hotel Monaco Tuesday night. Guests invited by sponsors Macchu Pisco, Evelyn Brooks Designs, and the Embassy of Peru celebrated the Declaration of Peru’s Independence from Spain by Jose de San Martin in 1821 with Pisco Sours and a fashion show to benefit Coprodeli’s earthquake reconstruction efforts in Peru. Award winning Macchu Pisco and its Founder/CEO Melanie Da Trinidade-Asher provided Peru’s national drink, while co-Host Evelyn Brooks displayed her new styles in a jewelry and fashion show featuring her signature rosaries. The party was a success with a few revelers even wearing red and white, the colors of the Peruvian flag.
