Guests arriving at the January 27 Chanel haute couture show were met by a gigantic circular white garden installed beneath the dome of the Grand Palais in Paris. Designated entrances were built to help direct traffic flow as guests made their way in. The sub-roof was kept transparent to allow the sun's rays in.
Underscoring the theme of Tassels and Tastemakers, dream catchers hung throughout the space. The ethereal decorations had woven-in hashtags that encouraged guests to post pictures to social media.
In late April, the Brookfield Zoo outside of Chicago hosted its annual fund-raising gala. The event featured animal-theme decor from the Flower Firm, including a bar with leopard spots and eyes.
The fund-raiser was held on June 2 at New York's Museum of Modern Art. With decor and flowers from Concept Event Group, the dinner space used elements designed to evoke the outdoors. There were banana-leaf-print cloths, fruitwood folding chairs, and mixed-fern centerpieces.
In keeping with the event's lush, outdoor feel, shoots of bamboo lined a step-and-repeat with the museum logo.
