Miu Miu Opening at Ala Moana Center

Dozens of Honolulu scenesters flocked to celebrate with bubbly and bites at the opening of Miu Miu’s new boutique at Ala Moana Center.

THE PARTY
Miu Miu’s new Ala Moana Center boutique could hardly contain the dizzying amount of guests that showed up for its opening celebration. Among the high-profile guests were Hawaii Five-0 leading man Daniel Dae Kim and his wife, Mia Kim. Daniel was recently named the face of the new global campaign for beauty brand Clinique for Men. He is also extending his wings beyond acting; he is slated to executive produce three shows with his production company, 3AD, this year under the CBS banner. A man on fire!

THE SCENE
Local beauty Miss Hawaii USA 2017 Julie Kuo and her predecessor, Chelsea Hardin, came to check out all that glittered. Also in the room were a bevy of cool Honolulu influencers—from furniture-makers to independent cafe owners.

THE HIGHLIGHTS
Champagne and cocktails were seemingly bottomless as miniature and oh-so-delicate bites were served by an impeccable crew of servers. A slew of patrons opted to try on looks, while others sipped, noshed and mingled. Needless to say, there was a healthy amount of retail therapy going around, thanks to Miu Miu’s latest array of ready-to-wear ensembles and lustworthy accessories. Now, that’s what we call a fashionable soiree. -Nuy Cho
