The Miele Triflex HX1 Press Launch with Studio Wayne McGregor

To launch its first ever cordless vacuum cleaner, Miele wanted to do something special. The Triflex HX1 needed to be celebrated with a unique and original concept that reflected its exceptional cleaning performance and the flexibility of its unique 3in1 design, which is not offered by any other competitive product.  Sellers PR worked with Studio Wayne McGregor, the creative engine for multi award winning British choreographer and director Wayne McGregor CBE. Driven by an insatiable curiosity about movement and its creative potentials, we felt that this was the perfect partnership. Focusing on the key features of Triflex; FLEXIBLE, POWERFUL and FAST, Studio Wayne McGregor created a spectcularly refreshing and different artistic interpretation that was showcased esxclusively at an unforgettabe live event to key press and Miele retailers February 2020.  The Miele Triflex was also unveiled simultaenously on Miele’s social media channels. 

Over 20 press and 35 Miele partners were in attendance including The Telegraph, Evening Standard, The Sun, Forbes, WIRED, Expert Reviews, The Gadget Show, ERT, Trusted Reviews, PocketLink, Time Out, TechRadar, Which?, T3, Ideal Home, Real Homes, Homes & Gardens and Good Housekeeping.
