Maria O’Halloran<br />
CEO<br />
Describe the Ballantynes shopper in five words:<br />
Loyal; discerning; adventurous; fashion conscious<br />
and valued.<br />
What have been the biggest changes that<br />
Ballantynes has faced within the fashion house?<br />
We have just completed a refurbishment of our<br />
Ladies Fashion floor, introduced international<br />
beauty brand Tom Ford. Next on our ‘to-do list’<br />
is a major rebuild.<br />
If you could wear only one designer for the<br />
rest of your life, who would it be?<br />
We are truly spoilt for choice. I couldn’t possibly<br />
name just one – but would have to say our local<br />
New Zealand talent are my go-tos.<br />
What does BFW mean to the business?<br />
Every member of our team contributes in some<br />
way to ensure this week is amazing for our<br />
customers.
