US (GA): "A fashion-forward celebration of spring couture in bloom"

Spring is about to bloom in style as global flower show Fleurs de Villes returns to Phipps Plaza with its Atlanta debut of Fleurs de Villes FLORA — a fashion-forward celebration of spring couture in bloom.

Free and open to the public from Wednesday, April 29, to Sunday, May 3, Fleurs de Villes FLORA will showcase a curated collection of floral installations throughout Mall Level 1 at Phipps Plaza, including the brand's signature fresh floral mannequins, each brought to life by Atlanta's talented floral designers. Thousands of blooms will be transformed into original couture-inspired creations, blending fashion and florals into a vibrant expression of the season.

In addition to enjoying Fleurs de Villes' floral mannequins, visitors can experience more floral fun on Saturday, May 2, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., including floral demonstrations and a pop-up flower market featuring fresh blooms from local florists. Guests can also capture memorable moments among floral displays — including a floral-adorned Porsche and a stunning floral entrance at The House of Creed inspired by their new Wild Vetiver fragrance — and experience the thrill of the "Run for the Roses" at Phipps Plaza's annual Kentucky Derby viewing party on The Green from 5 – 7 p.m.

Throughout the show, visitors are encouraged to vote for their favorite floral mannequin for a chance to win a prize package including a two-night stay at Nobu Hotel Atlanta, a $250 Phipps Plaza gift card, and a $1,000 gift certificate for the Porsche Experience Center.

Nobu Hotel Atlanta will also join the FLORA celebration with two exquisite floral mannequins — one featured at the main exhibition in Phipps Plaza and another displayed in the hotel lobby. Guests are invited to toast to Fleurs de Villes FLORA with Nobu's limited-edition Roses n' Butterflies cocktail, and to celebrate the season with their Spring Omakase tasting menu — a curated culinary journey featuring Nobu signatures alongside refined seasonal creations crafted by their chefs.

"With FLORA, we are thrilled to introduce a bold new chapter for Fleurs de Villes — one that celebrates spring through the artistry of couture-inspired floral design," said Karen Marshall, co-founder of Fleurs de Villes. "By putting Atlanta's floral designers center stage, FLORA celebrates their creativity and craftsmanship, inviting visitors to experience flowers not just as décor, but as fashion, art, and storytelling in bloom."
