Nordstrom x The Folklore Hispanic Heritage Month Cocktail Event in New York City

Nordstrom x The Folklore Hispanic Heritage Month Cocktail Event in New York City

The Folklore last week partnered with Nordstrom to host a vibrant Hispanic Heritage Month Cocktail Event in New York City alongside fellow co-host Latinas in Beauty. The evening served as both a celebration of creativity of Hispanic people and the official kickoff to Nordstrom’s Hispanic Heritage Month Pop-Up Shop series curated by The Folklore, now rolling out across the U.S.

Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month in Fashion

Hispanic Heritage Month is a time to recognize and uplift the contributions of Hispanic communities. This NYC event at Nordstrom created space for independent designers to share their stories, showcase their craft, and connect with new audiences, which included editors, buyers, and influencers. By bridging heritage and innovation, these brands are transforming the fashion industry with bold, sustainable, and culturally rooted designs.

Brands Spotlighted in New York City

The NYC Pop-Up, which ran September 27–28, introduced shoppers at Nordstrom’s New York flagship store to standout independent brands, including The Folklore members:

  • DOIZPE (Mexico) – modern accessories made in Mexico with bold silhouettes and sleek craftsmanship.

  • YAPA New York (Bolivia) – artisanal knitwear made in Bolivia reimagined with playful textures and heritage techniques.

  • Lombia+Co. (Colombia) – ethical handbags handcrafted by Wayuu Indigenous artisans in Colombia.

Each brand highlighted how cultural heritage can be woven into everyday fashion while pushing design innovation forward.
