Today and tomorrow only there’s a popup, The Poppy Caravan Popup Miami, you won’t want to miss!Showcased are a wide array of luxury fashions, accessories, home decor and gift items. Plus you can combine it with lunch or drinks at the prime people watching lunch spot, Bellini in the Mr. C Hotel, or grab a light bite in The Bazaar Project next door and make it an afternoon! The Popup reminds me of the trunk shows I used to love at the Pierre Hotel in New York that were spearheaded by Melissa Biggs Bradley of Indagare. As you know, I don’t usually devote an entire blogpost to a popup, but I checked out the designers and decided it looks like it’s worth its own post.
It’s from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.at the Starlight Ballroom & Foyer of the Mr. C Hotel Miami in Coconut Grove (2988 McFarlane Rd, Miami, FL 33133). Admission is free admission, and it’s open to the public. Conceived as an elevated shopping experience that’s more like a garden party than a traditional trunk show, guests can enjoy complimentary rosé and white wine as they peruse and shop for one-of-a-kind items, limited-edition collections and other curated picks from emerging brands.
Some of the participating brands include jewelry and accessories from Emily & Ashley and Mignonne Gavigan; a range of sporty women’s wear by Byrdie Golf Social; Marysia swimwear; dresses, blouses and airy caftans by Buggy; a range of dresses, blouses and resort pieces in dazzling prints by Ala Von Auersperg; Peraline; stylish headgear by Cappello Hats; Wolford hosiery, lingerie, shapewear and athleisure; loungewear, denim and swimwear by Buru; Elysian; hand crafted dresses and garments by Sue Sartor; fine art and assorted home items by Camilla Webster; and bespoke carpets by Nitika Moran.
To give back to the community, The Poppy Caravan PopUp Miami will be donating 10% of the sales to the Healthy Bellas Foundation, a prominent not for profit organization with deep roots to the Miami Latina population and dedicated to creating opportunities and programs for young adults with special needs. According to The Poppy Caravan founders Stephanie Landess and Paula Edwards, “We conceived The Poppy Caravan in the hopes of gathering together women in unity and we hope this is just the beginning of working together with this worthy cause.”
I’ll be there Tuesday for lunch and then to do some damage if you know what I mean.
