In a groundbreaking twist that set this partnership apart from traditional Fashion Week collaborations, CBC took the fashion experience beyond the event itself. On Monday, September 9th, a special live shopping event on Instagram featured select pieces from Hudson's new collection. For the first time, fashion enthusiasts across the globe could preorder pieces directly from the runway, in real-time, via a live-streaming platform. This interactive experience was a testament to Covet By Christos' innovative approach to retail, combining the immediacy of Fashion Week with the accessibility of online shopping.

In addition to the new collection, CBC also offered exclusive archival pieces during the live event, creating a unique opportunity for fans of Sergio Hudson's work to acquire coveted items from past collections. Hundreds of viewers tuned in and vigorously shopped. The event was a resounding success, with shoppers engaging directly with Garkinos and Hudson through the live chat, asking questions, and securing limited-edition pieces before they were sold out.

"By bridging the gap between the runway and consumers worldwide, we're offering an unparalleled experience that brings the magic of Fashion Week directly to our viewers," Garkinos stated at the time. His vision of connecting fashion fans with the exclusive world of high-end design was made possible through Covet by Christos, which has revolutionized the way luxury fashion is consumed.
