Miami Art Week is underway, but on Tuesday night Gucci reminded the crowd that the holiday season is also in full swing.
On Tuesday night, the fashion brand hosted an outdoor cocktail party at the Sweet Bird North Plaza in Miami’s Design District to celebrate the debut of its festive public art installation, a giant snow globe that pays homage to the brand’s travel heritage.
Design District developer Craig Robins and wife Jackie Soffer stopped by shortly after attending J Balvin’s Joopiter cocktail party nearby, joining other VIPs including Karolina Kurkova, Alessandra Ambrosio, Venus Williams, Eiza González, Yara Shahidi, Athena Calderone, Ghetto Gastro’s Jon Gray, Kennedy Yanko, Dustin Yellin, and more.

“I love always coming to the Gucci event. It’s always an assured fun moment,” said González, who also recently attended another art-related event with Gucci at the Tate London. “I do think that Gucci has the most fun party always. They’re an incredible brand that is very ‘vanguardia,’ we say in Spanish. They’re always pushing the boundaries and they’re trendy and understand what the vibe is. And it’s cool. It’s fun, it’s chic, it’s sexy. It’s always a different vibe.”
The actress has attended a few Art Basels, but this year she is looking at the art from a different perspective.
“Right now I’m moving home, so I’m purchasing and I’m looking for pieces,” she said. “So it’s an exciting week to be here to look for special pieces for my new house.”
Besides moving, González has a particularly busy year ahead, anticipating the release of six films including “Fountain of Youth” with Natalie Portman, a festival-bound film with Aaron Paul directed by Flying Lotus, and a movie with Vince Vaughn and James Marsden.
“So 2025 is gonna be a hectic year. I’m very, very excited,” González added. “2024 was a year of a lot of work, a lot of pushing myself to the extremes — but I think it’s going to be worth it.”
