If the Miami fashion industry were a family, Rene Ruiz would be your sophisticated uncle who never let you leap into his arms, but was also never at a loss when you asked him all the difficult questions. About, you know, proper winetasting techniques, selecting the perfect stone for an engagement ring, and folding a handkerchief. The important stuff. For years Ruiz has been creating his own brand of Magic City sophistication by dressing our finest in his finest ready-to-wear and custom-made pieces. And today at his boutique from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., you can afford to buy armloads of the fashions that stars like Paris Hilton and Kimora Lee Simmons clamor after.
Sure you’ll see floor-skimming gowns and precision-cut suits with prices that soar into the thousands, but you’ll also find tops starting at $50. This is only one of two times each year that Rene turns on the blue light in his boutique, so don’t miss out.
