Businessmen, diplomats, media directors gathered at the Hilton Sofia to taste Bulgarian wines and watch Bulgarian fashion. White and red wines from all Bulgaria's regions won the applauses of businessmen and diplomats. Mitko Boudinov, one of the "Hilton" experts, somewhat bored the public, while furnishing them in a monotonous voice with information about the wines, but the guests tested seven different wines and were enchanted by the heavenly savour. "Gorchivka", vintage of 1994, was the most successful. No less enthusiasm was provoked by "Astoni" fashion house. Designer Antoineta Vasiliadou got thunderous ovations with her romantic and at the same time avant-garde models shown by the beauties from the "Ivet Fashion" Agency. His Excellency, the Ambassador of Switzerland to Sofia, the host of the soiree applauded warmly the defile.
