Lilly Pulitzer | Pink & Green Palooza in PGA
My good buddy Jose Cuadra was hard at work with Lilly’s very talented team of Print & Pattern designers– Jeff Mattia, Victoria Davis and Paige Smith, creating a stunning visual masterpiece for Lilly Pulitzer’s latest store opening in Palm Beach Gardens, FL. Jose and I worked together when I headed-up visual for Lilly, and let me tell you– Jose is not only one of the most talented visual merchants in the business, he’s also one of the all-around greatest guys going (BFF). At Lilly, the print department houses some of the best designers in the business– they are all truly artists that paint, sketch and create through heart & hand. They are not just click and drag CAD jockeys. What this inspiring team of artistic talent created is truly incredible. As Brad Bradbeer would say– “Go team!”
The print teams hand painted tribute to Lilly Pulitzer’s own original quirky shop in the Palm Beach Vias. What a great shot of Lilly at the height of her fame. The pride of Palm Beach chic, surrounded by what made her an American design icon–the printed poplin shift dress.
The super-fun and colorful Pantone/Pulitzer fitting room.
The iconic Lilly Pulitzer story is retold on the walls of this luscious Pink Paradise fitting room.
The Jungle fitting room inspired by Lilly Pulitzer’s own lush (and notoriously overgrown) backyard.
The one-of-a-kind Lilly Pulitzer powder room that all the Palm Beach Gardens’ girls will be talking about.

Nice stuff. Lily’s stuff isn’t my or my wife’s taste, but I always give props to stores that know their own identity (and their customer’s tastes) and execute them well.
This looks fantastic! Jose you wrote all that??
JP, you always find the best stuff. This is just pure absolute delight.
JP – thanks for an awesome posting! I really appreciate the kind words. I miss working with you.
See you soon…..
Jose,
The pleasure was all mine. The store looks amazing, major congrats to you and the team.
The palm and stripe powder room is magnificent. Unbelieveable.
great stuff. fresh air.
very, very cool
I have to take my hat off to all involved. It looks amazing! The best interpretation of what a Lilly store should look and feel like. Change ‘em all!!
Awesome – I’d LOVE to start a pets ‘preppy’ line for her!
I am writing a book on the fashion industry and would love to get the artists featured here to do the illustrations for the book. Any idea of how to get in touch with them? It would be much appreciated.
This is absolutely fabulous! We are loving those pictures, wow! Thanks for such an incredible post!
Grins & Giggles,

Looks AMAZING!!! Congrats Jose and the LP team!
Love, love, love all the work the team did. It’s fabulous!!!!
Jose, the store looks awesome! You have such imagination. Thank you so much for giving us a glimpse of what the new store looks like. Great work LP team!
Jose and I caught-up today– the store is on fire! The official grand opening is Saturday. They had a soft-opening and are burning up the register in Palm Beach. I’m sure the presentation and atmosphere that Jose and the team created are a large part of the success.
Congrats!
