A special encore presentation of the fashion show was held a week later at The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. "Jean Fares's creations received an enthusiastic reception from our audiences in both New York and Palm Beach… as one of the guests said, each gown was fabulous and then the next one was even better," commented producer Andres Aquino.

The editor of Black Tie magazine observed: “It does not get any better than this… these shows have reached a new height…” Another editor commented “Couture Fashion Week is definitely a very distinguished fashion week and different from anything else we have in New York.” Mr. Botezatu's collection exuded an evocative appeal and a vaguely gothic flavor with a seductive charm. His team of hair and makeup artists that accompanied him to New York, created unforgettable dramatic looks that paired seamlessly with the striking ensembles.
