During the event, guests were able to shop and listen to a live performance by local jazz singer, Sincerely Lenora while enjoying cocktails and mocktails from CÎROC, Crown Royal, Tequila Don Julio, Baileys, and Seedlip, at a speak-easy experience for movers & shakers.
Notables in attendees included rapper Bun B and localfashion industry moguls who had a chance to get a first look at the two new Premium Goods x Nike AF1 designs: The Sophia and The Bella.
The Premium Goods x Nike AF1 draws inspiration from Jennifer Ford’s love for and past work in jewelry to reimagine the iconic Air Force 1’s design through the lenses of classic and timeless luxury — blending textures, incorporating artisanal techniques, and sharing elegant color stories.
