The intention

Bring the brand off the screen, build community and introduce the Solei Clip through an experience people could take part in.

02

The setting

Black Pearl’s beachside audience and specialty drinks offered a natural connection to the collection. The partnership brought product discovery into an existing social space.

03

The experience

Guests discovered the collection, tried drinks inspired by Merci Solei’s palette and shopped the new clip. Every detail connected back to the same summer story.

01 / The story

From concept to space.

The approach

Pink and yellow connected the invitation, displays and limited-edition product. Four custom drinks translated the collection’s color story into something guests could experience together. A café near the beach placed the brand in a setting that made sense for its audience.

Why it matters

The activation gave guests a reason to discover the brand, stay, share the experience and shop in person.
