FLORA Premieres at Bal Harbour Shops

By
Fleurs de Villes

In February we returned to Bal Harbour, Miami, for the global premiere of Fleurs de Villes FLORA – a fashion-forward celebration of spring couture in bloom, created by Miami’s talented floral designers.

Open to the public from February 27 – March 8, this spectacular showcase featured over 20 one-of-a-kind fresh floral installations, including our signature mannequins and pop-up floral displays at Bal Harbour Shops and throughout Bal Harbour Village. This year, our floral designers took centre stage as they transformed flowers into original couture creations that embody the spirit of spring.

Scroll through the gallery above and step into a world of colour and creativity as you experience the season anew through bold, imaginative floral artistry. Read below to learn more about each stunning creation.

  1. Aniska Creations – The spirit of spring – joyful, delicate and elegant – comes through in the different shades of pink and peach. Her full skirt is layered with roses and garden roses, contrasting a tight bodice of skeleton leaves, preserved hydrangea and rose petals. 
  2. Anthology Co. – Inspired by the dramatic florals of Dutch Master paintings. Florals extend in unexpected directions, cascading in clusters to disrupt the form with energy and movement. The result is a dramatic yet playful floral moment, honouring the Dutch Masters while celebrating the joy and renewal of spring.
  3. Petal Productions – Captures the spirit of spring through lightness, movement, and fresh botanical variety. The layered beauty of a spring garden in bloom, while the greenery suggests breezy windswept meadows. 
  4. Connections and Creations – Representing the resilience of Black women, transforming survival into strength, beauty, and bold self-expression. Inspired by the celebration of spring, the dress evokes a phoenix rising, sculpted from preserved rose petals, anthuriums, and orchids.
  5. Brunello Cucinelli Entryway created by Belle Fleur – Inspired by the brand’s refined, natural aesthetic, the design’s soft, neutral palette of greens, blush, and warm earthy tones reflects understated elegance. 
  6. Jassi & Co – Capturing the spirit of spring through vibrant colors and a fresh tropical essence — light, lively, and full of energy. Anthurium, bromeliad plants and multiple varieties of orchid complete this dynamic celebration of tropical spring vitality. 
  7. Isáchi Flowers & Crafts – Spring is imagined as a process of emergence and renewal, rising from the earth itself. One arm remains rooted, reflecting our connection to the networks that sustain all life.

  9. Indigo Hues Design, for Makoto – Drawing from the elegance and symbolism of Japanese aesthetics, this floral couture gown expresses spring as a season of renewal, precision, and living beauty.

  13. JK Floral Design – Inspired by a rare moment when nature grows freely toward the sky. The sculptural headdress represents the agave flower, emerging from the head as a bold focal point, while the ascending silhouette connects the base, body, and headpiece into one continuous composition of strength and transformation.
  14. FLORA Mannequin created by W & W Flowers & Events - a colourful spring vacationer welcomes all to Bal Harbour Village.
