During the event, Chiao joined Jackman and Baretzki for a panel discussion about his experience in space. Chiao is one of a handful of individuals to have experienced the wonder of space and witnessed the fragility of Earth, having spent 229 days in space over the course of four missions.

Following a preview of the campaign, guests danced the night away to the tracks of DJ Brendan Fallis.

Available from July 2019, the new StarWalker collection, intuitive with its name, is about reaching for the stars and celebrating the wonder of space travel. With a patented translucent dome beneath the emblem evoking the earth rising above the lunar horizon as seen from the moon, it is imbued with the same spirit of continuous exploration that drives many of today’s engineers, scientists and inventors to make the future brighter by challenging the limits of technological advancement on Earth and in space.
