An exciting new concept brand – La Dolce Vita – will be launching its pop-up beach boutique at Makou (Mckenzie beach, Larnaca) on June 10 at 6pm, with a fashion show launch on the sand.
The event will be by invitation only and aims to showcase a stunning collection of fashion, accessories, lifestyle products, interior-home, beach, cruise and other summer orientated items. All products involved inspired the creator of La Dolce Vita, Sharon Holmes, who has travelled extensively and desires to reflect the best fusion of organic, sustainable, Fairtrade and ethical fashion. Her endeavours will be featured in a unique pop-up boutique on the beach that offers a range of selective pieces new to Larnaca.
For a limited time only within the summer of 2015, the collection will feature gorgeous leather sandals from Santorini, intricate homemade artisan bags from the Philippines, rugs from India, stylish Panama hats, ornate handmade jewellery, elegant kaftans, signature swimwear and towels from Mykonos, amongst other exclusive items developed by local designers.
Sharon says the idea behind the concept is to “offer fairly-priced, good quality products from around the world that have a story to tell or tradition to reveal”. She continued: “In essence, La Dolce Vita is fashion with a conscience, where the suppliers or producers have worked with full moral responsibility.”
After the fashion show and grand opening, the pop-up boutique will be open during weekends and on some weekdays in conjunction with special events held by Makou or La Dolce Vita.
The brand also supports local designers and artisans. Sharon is currently working with the well-known Cypriot clothing designer, Pavlina, for a signature range of evening wear that will be exclusive to La Dolce Vita.
