U T O P I A: Roche Bobois Atlanta x Mimi Plange x Horizons Atlanta

Roche Bobois, luxury furniture editor, and Mimi Plange, award-winning fashion designer, have joined together to present their artistic collaboration - “UTOPIA” -a large exhibition of Roche Bobois’ iconic Mah Jong sofa, as well as wall coverings and accessories, produced exclusively for the special event.

The one-of-a-kind pieces, upholstered with custom Mimi Plange fabrics and leathers, will be sold with proceeds benefiting Horizons Atlanta. Horizons is Atlanta’s leading advocate and provider of summer learning programs with plans to expand over the next several years with a suite of programs serving 2000 metro Atlanta students. 

Roche Bobois will offer a “Pop Up Shop” of fashion and home accessories designed by Plange, which will showcase a modern interpretation of ancient African design traditions. Pulling heavily from her own Ghanaian heritage, Plange will showcase a painted version of the iconic Kente Cloth, surreal animal pop art collages, and her own army of pastel Ashanti Dolls. For the highly anticipated collaboration, Plange partnered with the Ethical Fashion Initiative,a program of a UN agency called ITC that connects the fashion industry with artisans in Africa and Haiti.

With the belief that Culture, Art and Design share the same philosophy and inspiration, Roche Bobois is also pleased to lend their support to such an important fundraising event for a perfect cohesion of fashion and design. “UTOPIA” is set to receive a large array of attention on both a local and national level; all ticket sales and items sold during the event will support Horizons Atlanta.

UTOPIA is on September 22nd at Ponce City Market. TICKETS

TOD'S FW 2016/17 Collection & Event Recap for CURE Childhood Cancer

Tod's at The Shops Buckhead Atlanta has stepped into the Fall fashion season with an explosion of vibrant color and metallic textures. To celebrate, Tod's hosted an event to feature the collection of fine Italian leather shoes, handbags and accessories. Their signature driver was proudly displayed in a rainbow of abundance as were alternate looks for every lifestyle - from streetwise sneakers to high-heeled loafers with a modern touch. 

Guests sipped on champagne and enjoyed passed hors d'oeuvres from Le Bilboquet.  

BUT the evening was not all about fashion. Giving is stylish too and I've said many times that Atlantan's are among the most charitable. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month so the evening benefited the Bowen Story Fund for CURE Childhood Cancer. Scott Story, co-founder of the Bowen Story Fund shared his personal experiences and motivation for creating this fund which aids families with food, transportation, hotel and gift cards who travel 50 or more miles to receive treatment for their child. Scott was featured on Atlanta Plugged In along with event host Shaye Strager of Strager Style:

It was an honor to co-host this special event. Thank you to everyone who came out to support this cause. After the event, Le Bilboquet continued their support by donating 10% of the bill for guests who strolled over for dinner.
