Making for a pre-holiday market of sorts, there’s also unique glassware by Laguna B, Iacobella handbags, elaborate creations by NV Milano, and Vincent Vintage antiques. Given Missoni’s passion for community and pairing vintage accessories with her contemporary designs, bringing the made in Italy offering to a Manhattan audience made perfect sense.
“Compared to my past work, this is really me,” Missoni told Vogue—referring to her mission to “make comfort look chic.” Missoni spoke of the significance of the wilted daisy emblem found on many of her designs, which refers to the idea that “we cannot always be blooming.”
“Maccapani is for women who want to nourish all sides of their life, who don’t just want to be categorized as one thing. Whether that be a businesswoman, a mother, or a lover—Maccapani is for women who want to be all those things,” she added, kitted out in her own ‘Easy’ patterned pants, a shimmering navy cardigan and a pearl, lace, and floral necklace.
Shoppers perused the displays and stopped to admire a lavender stem table centerpiece, sifting through racks of fabrics until they secured a one-of-a-kind piece. Missoni and the Maccapani team served as sounding boards as attendees took turns trying on pieces in the back library-turned-fitting room. Once the rattan partitions were pulled back, shoppers morphed into models and paused to capture a perfect mirror selfie.
The pop-up is open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. until November 9.
