Amplifying the Grind Pretty Message

Previous iterations of the festival have inspired thousands, and this latest edition was no exception. The Miami Remix amplified the brand’s message while bringing it to an even broader audience during the iconic Art Basel weekend.

“Our goal with the Grind Pretty Miami Remix was to highlight the incredible work women are doing in the creative, business, and entrepreneurial space, and what better backdrop than Art Basel to do so,” said Johnson. “Seeing so many powerful women from different walks of life come together to uplift each other was beyond inspiring. We’re taking this movement to new heights, and this is just the beginning.”

A Nostalgic Throwback Theme Adds to the Fun

The immersive experience was further enhanced by a 90s/00s nostalgic theme, encouraging attendees to channel their favorite throwback looks. While the vintage aesthetic was optional, it added a playful and stylish energy to the affair. Guests enjoyed a light brunch with Belaire mimosas, mingled with like-minded individuals, and captured timeless moments in photo-worthy spaces throughout the venue.
