NEW YORK, Jan. 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- 5W Public Relations, one of the top 20 independently owned public relations firms in the U.S., has been named PR Agency of Record by nobis, launched in 2007 by Kevin Au-Yeung, President and Co-Founder, and Robin Yates, Vice President and Co-Founder.

"As the company continues to expand its services, our fashion practice will position nobis as a leader among luxury outerwear and winter accessories." 5WPR plans to implement an integrated public relations strategy that will increase exposure among consumers and build brand recognition.

In 2007, the luxury outerwear brand began designing iconic tailored Canadian down filled jackets that were inspired by a rediscovered appreciation for the more simplified lifestyle of the past. As a serial entrepreneur and over 40 years of family history in apparel manufacturing for luxury brands, Kevin Au-Yeung has founded multiple companies under InnoVision Holdings Corporation including nobis. Along with the support of outerwear enthusiast and industry veteran Robin Yates having over 10 years of experience as the VP of Canada Goose, and an extremely talented design team, nobis turned into an international premium fashion and lifestyle brand. With creative passion and a focus on the combination of evolving technical membranes, linings, and traditional Canadian down insulation; the ultimate parka with a fashion forward, fitted silhouette was born. Nobis quickly became the launching pad for luxury lifestyle products that would suit any cold weather environment and speak to a new class of modern adventurers in urban environments and beyond.

Collections have a range of multifunctional jackets that combine highly technical functionalities with fashion forward silhouettes complimented by headwear, accessories, knitwear and shoes. Technical elements synonymous with the brand's core value of exceeding expectation are carefully reworked, revisited and tailored for each collection.
