A Wicked Brunch to Remember at R House Wynwood

Published

on

Elphaba opened the show, Glinda brought the sparkle, and guests partied through a birthday twerk off that shook the whole room.


November 27, 2025

If you ask a local where to find the most iconic drag brunch in Miami, ten out of ten will point you straight to R House Wynwood. Wicked Release Weekend proved exactly why. The moment you walked in, the room was already glowing with fabulous chaos. It felt like Miami brunch energy collided with Broadway magic and decided to stay for bottomless mimosas.

Sunlight streamed in like it was part of the cast. Disco balls shimmered above the tables. Yellow umbrellas swayed outside in the breeze. Guests were already sipping cocktails with the kind of confidence that says yes, I came prepared for brunch greatness.

Then Elphaba stepped out first and the entire room snapped to attention. She entered in full green glory with shimmering makeup, a dramatic witch hat, and a black gown that moved like midnight smoke. As the announcer, she commanded the space with a voice that wrapped around the room and pulled every guest straight into the story. She owned the stage from the first beat and set the tone for everything that followed.

Glinda floated in next like a burst of sunshine. Soft pink feathers and rhinestones sparkled with every turn. She radiated pure joy, a perfect contrast to Elphaba’s darker elegance. Together they created a Wicked themed duo that felt theatrical and campy. The whole room lit up.

Just when guests thought the show had reached its peak, a queen in a floor length silver sequin gown swept in like a walking disco dream. Her entrance was electric and her lip sync had the room screaming. People stood up. People filmed. People almost forgot their food entirely but honestly its so good, you cant. It was a performance that could live in a museum of iconic Miami moments.

Between each number, Elphaba kept the show moving with quick wit and crowd work that blended drag humor with Broadway timing. She teased the tables, hyped the guests, and made strangers laugh together as if they knew each other for years. It was R House at its best.

Then came the finale. Everyone celebrating a birthday was invited to the front for a twerk off and chaos in the very best way erupted. Guests in glitter, denim, bodycon dresses, and even a Patrick Star inspired outfit shook what they had with pride. The crowd cheered like they were watching championship finals. Every participant received a free shot as a reward for bravery and enthusiasm. It was joyful, messy, hilarious, and unforgettable.

This brunch had everything that makes R House Wynwood the heart of Miami drag culture. Unbelievable food, stunning performers, nonstop laughter, and a sense of community that feels like a warm, sparkly hug. Wicked Release Weekend was not just a themed brunch. It was a full emotional and theatrical experience that proved once again why R House continues to reign as Miami’s most beloved brunch destination.

Luli Fama Launches Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Swimwear Collection in Miami

Published

on

Luli Fama celebrates its Paradise Found Cruise ’27 swimwear and resortwear collection with a luxury Miami launch at its Dadeland Mall boutique.


 August 20, 2026

Miami swimwear favorite Luli Fama is stepping into Cruise ’27 with Paradise Found, a new swimwear and resortwear collection inspired by tropical escapes, exotic prints and effortless vacation glamour.

South Florida Insider has already taken a closer look at the Luli Fama Paradise Found collection, and it feels made for Miami.

The new Cruise ’27 collection combines the bold, body-confident swimwear Luli Fama is known for with elevated resort pieces designed to move effortlessly from the beach and pool to cocktails and dinner.

On Thursday, August 20, Luli Fama will celebrate Paradise Found with an exclusive evening at its newest Dadeland Mall boutique in Miami, complete with fashion, light bites, personalized surprises, and a luxe espresso martini bar.

Inside Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 Collection

Paradise Found is inspired by the feeling of discovering a hidden tropical retreat.

Think lush landscapes, warm golden hour light, exotic patterns, and silhouettes made for somewhere beautiful.

The collection features Luli Fama signatures, including flattering ruched details, seamless construction, adjustable fits, and statement swimwear, alongside an expanded selection of resortwear.

We especially love the pieces that blur the line between swim and ready-to-wear.

Flowing dresses, sleek coverups, and body-skimming silhouettes make it easy to transition from a sun-drenched afternoon to an evening out without losing that relaxed resort feeling.

It is sensual, polished, and unmistakably Miami.

Luli Fama Brings Luxury Resort Style to Miami

There is a reason Paradise Found feels so natural in South Florida.

In Miami, resortwear is not reserved for vacation.

A swimsuit can become part of an outfit. A coverup can take you to lunch. A flowing resort dress can carry you from an afternoon by the water straight into cocktails and dinner.

Luli Fama has always understood that lifestyle.

Paradise Found takes it a step further, creating a Cruise ’27 wardrobe that feels as appropriate for a tropical getaway as it does for a weekend in Miami.

The campaign captures that mood beautifully, pairing the collection with palms, lush greenery, tropical architecture and the kind of sun soaked setting that makes you want to extend your vacation indefinitely.

Paradise Found Comes to Luli Fama at Dadeland Mall

Luli Fama will bring the world of Paradise Found to life on Thursday, August 20 from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at its newest boutique at Dadeland Mall in Miami.

The intimate celebration will bring together invited guests, influencers, celebrities and media for an early look at Cruise ’27.

Luli Fama is also dressing invited guests in pieces from the brand, allowing the new collection to be experienced the way it was designed to be worn: in motion, styled and out for the evening.

Luli After Hours Espresso Martini Bar

Fashion is only part of the experience.

For the Paradise Found celebration, Luli Fama is introducing Luli After Hours, an Espresso Martini Bar inspired by the glamour of the collection.

Guests will be able to sip three specialty espresso martinis created for the evening.

The Luli Babe puts a polished spin on the classic espresso martini, while Golden Hour pairs salted caramel with edible gold shimmer. Miami After Dark takes a richer approach with chocolate hazelnut and a cocoa dust finish.

Along with cocktails, guests can expect light bites, curated details and a special personalized surprise.

The result feels less like a traditional retail event and more like checking into a private resort for the evening.

A Miami Swimwear Brand Celebrates at Home

For a brand with such a strong connection to South Florida, launching Paradise Found in Miami feels especially fitting.

Luli Fama has built its identity around colorful, confident swimwear and resort fashion with a distinctly tropical point of view.

Paradise Found carries that identity into Cruise ’27 while giving it a more elevated, escapist mood.

And with Luli Fama’s newest boutique now at Dadeland Mall, Miami shoppers have another destination to experience the brand in person.

After getting our own closer look at Luli Fama’s Paradise Found Cruise ’27 collection, we can safely say the name fits.

Paradise has officially been found, and this time, it is in Miami.
