Miami Art Week is winding down, so we’re highlighting some of our favorite last events, including those with brands like Bottega Veneta, Moët & Chandon, Versace, and more.

On Wednesday, December 4, Bottega Veneta hosted a cocktail reception with drinks and snacks at The Bottega Diner to celebrate its new Design District boutique. The house’s Creative Director, Daniel Lee, welcomed guests (like Acyde, Ama Lou, Andre Walker, Angus Cloud, Derek Blasberg, Jean Pigozzi, Kate Bosworth, Laure Heriard Dubreuil, Paloma Elsesser, Princess Nokia, Richie Shazam, Sarah Harrelson, Tremaine Emory) to the Art Deco-style Paramount dining car—located at the iconic 24-hour, 11th Street Diner in Miami Beach—to enjoy music by Soul Clap, spiked “All-Nighter” milkshakes, and signature gold-hued burgers, metal straws, napkins, coffee cups, toothpick flag, matchboxes, and salt & pepper shakers—all signature branded by the house. The Bottega Diner is open in Miami through December14.

Thursday was quite a busy one—with cocktail receptions, dinners, late-night parties, and more.

In the Miami Design District, Versace welcomed special guests (like Craig Robins, Diplo, Shaun Ross, and more) to a cocktail reception with Sasha Bikoff—its recent creative collaborator. To welcome her second partnership with the house, an exhibition entitled “South Beach Stories” was on view, named after a book published by the house in 1993. The installation was comprised of one-of-a-kind furniture by Bikoff, as well as two limited-edition Virtus handbags that she collaboratively designed, inspired by the designer’s favorite buildings on Ocean Drive.

Rum Room: Miami was the third iteration of five national events curated by the Bacardi Rum Society, an exclusive group of distinguished celebrity rum enthusiasts and ambassadors. Beatz helped the brand bring the event to life, hosted at the iconic Faena Forum for the second year in a row.

The Confidante Miami Beach brought a comedy-centered event to a group of guests with a live rendition of the Seek Treatment podcast. Comedians Cat Cohen and Pat Reganspoke about love and dating, alongside special guests Joel Kim Booster and Michelle Collins.
