Pucci’s South Beach Art Bash

It’s fitting that the house of Pucci—with its history of saccharine shades, abstract patterns, and ‘60s hostess-with-the-mostess styles—would be the first fashion label to throw down at this year’s many Miami Basel festivities. In honor of Pucci’s 60th anniversary, the house’s head honchos—including designer Matthew Williamson and Uma Thurman look-alike LVMH’s Delphine Arnault—hosted the bash at a private villa, tapping artist Gerard Cholot to create an installation in the cavernous abode, using only Pucci’s archival images and fabric. The perky, printed materials made quite the artistic expression both on the walls (Domino editors, are you writing this down?) and on the crowd who, in true fashion-follower form, wore the house’s signature printed threads.
