Iconic art, fly (literally) shoes, and a friendly crowd of celebrities and fashionistas came together to kick Art Basel Miami 2019 into full swing.
Adidas Originals and Billionaire Boys Club hosted at the BBC ICEREAM Miami Pop-up, celebrating the launch of their new shoe and clothing line with artist Hebru Brantley. The limited-edition kicks levitated and spun above the party, giving guests a view of every angle replete with flashes of green, yellow, blue, white, and black.
Bombay Sapphire poured up four custom cocktails in grail cups, including the tasty Bombay Lemonade, classic Painted Bombay and Tonic, fresh Flyberry Tea Punch, and the Citrus Smile Spritz with local favorite ingredients. DJ Jay Illa spun tracks while Brantley, Pharrell Williams, and friends mingled with the crowd, chatted with guests, and mugged for pictures. Stars like Pusha T and Teyana Taylor arrived throughout the evening to enjoy along with a mix of Miami heavy hitters and visitors from around the country and globe.
The Billionaire Boys Club pop-up location offered guests an indoor/outdoor shop centered around a big and recognizable Brantley helmet piece posed in the center for guests to pose inside for pictures, and admire. Meanwhile outside, Tacos & Tattoos offered their menu, and the Billionaire Boys Club rocketship sat ready to fly high.
For those looking to join the Billionaire Boys Club, the shop offered a line of shirts by Brantley, and another BBC line unique to the Miami location, along with a spread of recognizable BBC wares. Guests partook in the curated shopping experience on top of the party opportunity, drinks flowing and bright clothes moving.
