A Proposal?

Come the end of the month, Hendrick’s Preposterous Proposal Throne will be pop-up at a variety of London locations offering ladies an opportunity to pop the question and make an honourable man of their evasive partner. But although the throne isn’t coming to Scotland the brand did run a couple of tongue in cheek courses at Dragonfly in Edinburgh. To celebrate the topsy turvy scenario, which allows women to propose on 29th February, under the heading ‘Hendrick’s Unusual Month of Reverse Courtship’ the brand ran two events. One offered guidance for ladies wishing to woo and the other to gentlemen hoping to avoid their advances. Talk about hedging their bets? The first event was the ‘Ladies School of Nuptial Conquest’ which taught the forgotten arts of courtship so that cunning ladies could seduce the gentlemen in their sights. While the other one the ‘School of Scoundrels’ taught men how to best avoid these advances in a polite and refined way.
