Clara Lago Rashidian, founder of pītusa, along with Gabriella Smith, entrepreneur, and founder of Hilo Tropical, welcomed attendees, introducing them to a space that promises conscious fashion and the authentic Caribbean lifestyle. The store is emerging as a key destination for those who value comfort, style, and sustainability in their clothing.
"Casa de Campo is an exclusive vacation destination for the Latin American market and was home to many pītusas even before we opened the store. Making it a natural spot for pītusa to have a store there. However, none of this would have been made possible without the support of our partner on the ground Gabriella Smith" says Clara Lago Rashidian.
