M&C Saatchi celebrates 15 fabulous years in Australia & New Zealand in Black & White style
M&C Saatchi’s 15th birthday at the Civic Hotel in Sydney on Thursday night was an all Black & White affair. All 380 M&C Saatchi staff were present to get their boogie on with clients, suppliers and a number of former staff, who filled four levels of the hotel and were treated to a catwalk show, live bands and DJs until the wee hours. The Black & White dress theme was adhered to by every party-goer, including copywriter Ben Yabsley who came as a cow.

Looks like a blast.
You tell him Tom. NO GLASSES, NO ENTRY.
I love the new look for Graham “Son of Tom” Johnson.
Wouldn’t be an advertising bender without Booker.
If Booker could sniff out a Melbourne Cup winner like he can sniff out a free drink he d be worth a call tomorrow.
Looks like their was plenty of food.
