Last night, fashion insiders gathered at Elvis, the effortlessly cool loft space at 54 Great Jones Street in New York, to celebrate the debut of the Mercules x Lilly Sisto handbag collaboration.
The event welcomed a chic crowd of editors, tastemakers, and friends for an evening of elevated summer nostalgia. Guests sipped spritzes and browsed the limited-edition capsule—a four-piece collection blending Mercules’ signature Spanish craftsmanship with Lilly Sisto’s refined, vintage-meets-modern aesthetic.

Designed between Madrid and New York, the collection includes The Playa, The Aperitivo, The Besos, and The Mercado—each nodding to sun-soaked adventures, feminine silhouettes, and timeless functionality.

“I wanted to reimagine the types of bags I reach for every summer vacation,” said Sisto at the event. “Pieces that feel luxurious, a little nostalgic, and tell a story of adventure.”
