COLUCCI Pop-Up Shop at Sara Leonor Studio

We are thrilled to announce our latest event—Made in Islington Presents, a wonderful collaborative pop-up featuring two of our creative members: COLUCCI and Sara Leonor Studio.

Sara Leonor Studio was one of our earliest and cherished members. Sara is an exceptionally talented interior and furniture designer who has worked on many homes in Islington and beyond. Her use of colour and her ability to create vibrant, mid-century-inspired spaces with a modern feel make her designs unique and personal. By incorporating bespoke materials, her spaces truly stand out.

COLUCCI is a new luxury fashion brand that blends old-world Italian charm with Hollywood elegance. Known for their craftsmanship, they produce made-to-measure garments and luxurious silk accessories in limited runs. Their strong use of colour and bespoke production make them a perfect match for collaboration with Sara Leonor Studio.

From 27th May to 2nd June, COLUCCI will have a specially curated window display at Sara Leonor's charming studio on Upper Street, a spot we are sure many of you have admired before.

On 1st and 2nd June, the studio doors will open for a unique opportunity to visit the space and see COLUCCI's pieces firsthand.

This event is a delightful treat for your creative senses, showcasing the synergy between these two innovative brands. It’s the kind of community collaboration we love.

We invite you all to stop by to see the window display and visit us in person on  1st and 2nd June. While you’re in the heart of Upper Street, you can also explore other local MIIS Community members nearby such as High Ground, Gill Wing Jewellery, and 192 Collective just to name a few.

So come on down and share in this collaborative event.

See you there!

P.S. If you can’t make it, you can always show your support remotely by following these brands on Instagram @colucci_cc and @saraleonorstudio
