Last night, ST~GERMAIN® Elderflower Liqueur teamed up with multi-hyphenate artist Jameel Mohammed of KHIRY, who uses unconventional materials to spark creativity and conversation, and Paper Designer Zoe Bradley launched Fleuriste ST~GERMAIN, a veritable paper “fleuriste” or flower shop en français in response to the global flower shortage. An illustrious mix of cultural tastemakers, celebrities, musicians, and industry innovators in attendance included AnnaSophia Robb, Isabella Boylston, Laura Kim, Joanna Carpenter, Venita Aspen, Laura Jung, Coco Bassey, Nana Agyemang, Alvin Wayne and more. As guests arrived, they were greeted by a multisensory assortment of paper flowers that served as the backdrop for intimate talks around expanding creativity to reimagine classics, and exclusive, soulful jazz performances by Jameel celebrating the beauty of creative diversity and collaboration. The crowd sipped signature ST~GERMAIN cocktails including Zoe Bradley’s Fleur Sauvage and Jameel Mohammed’s Songbird, while exchanging stories around self-expression, sources of joy, and finding inspiration in our natural surroundings.
Fleuriste ST~GERMAIN is the latest evolution of the brand’s Salon ST~GERMAIN series and is open to the public* from August 12 – 13. As the world experiences a scarcity of fresh florals, ST~GERMAIN, a liqueur comprised of up to 1,000 handpicked fresh elderflower blossoms that adds a dash of inspiration to any cocktail and inspires effortless experimentation, is partnering with Jameel and Zoe to reimagine the classic flower shop narrative and help people experience the joy of flowers in a new way. The duo and ST~GERMAIN are bringing the joie de vivre and eternal appeal of fresh florals to life through unique & immersive floral installations including paper bouquets, bespoke vessels and large-scale sculptural blossoms that bud from the walls, mirroring their signature aesthetics. The space is punctuated by whimsical cocktail moments that both literally and figuratively bloom in unexpected ways, from a spritz that is crowned with a cloud of elderflowers to a playful twist on a lychee martini cocktail garnished with an edible paper flower petal.
