Fantasy met festivity, and the result was pure magic.

Marissa actually began with a vision of 60s glam, Priscilla-and-Elvis style. But the more they leaned into that look, the less it felt like them. “The lack of colour felt sterile,” she said. "I then created mood boards with elements I liked and started calling the vibe 'Grandma Chic'. No one was a fan of that phrasing, so then we started using 'Estate Sale Chic'! The idea was your cool, well-travelled grandma’s house that hasn’t been renovated since the 60s. Super cosy, colourful and fun!"
