Georges hosted an exhibition in the store showcasing all the people whose talents helped to make them an institution in Melbourne. At the same time they published ‘Remembering Georges’ with stories about Melbourne’s most elegant department store told by managers, models, clients, sales personal, buyers & window dressers.
One chapter featured Hazel Benini talking about her husband Bruno Benini’s involvement with Georges, as well as her own work there. She wrote an extremely popular Georges ‘Diary’ in Saturday’s Age for several years, a widely read chatty ‘what’s new’ weekly column as well as creating exotic store displays that always caused an impact with customers.
