Soukra hosted a pop-up in San Francisco October 10-14, 2018, with five days of shopping (and activities), at Baana (now Abacus Row, 1256 Mason Street).
MADE IN: TUNISIA
This five-day pop-up experience featured fashion and design from Tunisia’s leading creatives. Shoppers tried on Anissa Aida’s newest collection of clothing and bags, tasted Tunisian treats, sipped Tunisian wine, and explored Soukra’s products in person. Read about some of the designers in Monocle, Issue 117, Volume 12, p. 215-218.
