HUGO X SOHO DESERT HOUSE

For weekend one, HUGO hosted a series of branded events in Palm Springs, getting the HUGO House, a creative hub for TikTokers and talents, and the exclusive HUGO x Soho Desert House, a pop up by Soho House, on the radar of millions of festivalgoers. The brand transformed a boutique hotel in downtown Palm Springs into the HUGO House, a content space featuring the brand’s iconic color codes of red, black, and white – complete with light installations, a denim walkway, and more. Over the three days, along with HUGO Eyewear partner Safilo, the house ran a jam-packed schedule of events, including workshops and poolside happy hours for a real community vibe.

High-profile TikTok creators Markell Washington, Benji Krol, Nils Küsel, Noen Eubanks, Desi Lundoloki, and actor Chloe Cherry, were invited to take up residence in the house. Each of the talents were given one of the hotel’s rooms decorated in a style unique to them. Davis Burleson from TikTok show “What’s Poppin’” kept tabs on things, reporting day-to-day goings-on from inside the house. The rest of the guest list read like a Who’s Who of social media’s biggest stars, with Michael Le and Tiffany Le, Avani Gregg, Anthony Reeves, Larray (Larri Merritt), Ehiz, Nia Sioux, Andrew Davila, Nicky Champa, Pierre Amaury Crespeau and Harry Tate, who were invited to stop by and create engaging content to further emphasize the brand’s TikTok-first activation, with the hashtag #HUGOYourWay shared with millions of followers all over the world. The VIPs in attendance included Charles Melton, Rob Raco, Hero Fiennes Tiffin and model Dilone.

On the final day, guests took part in a tie-dye workshop with a group of local L.A. designers. Throughout the festivities, talents were dressed head to toe in HUGO – specifically the brand’s signature logo pieces and denim range. The looks are already available to shop online and in-store, with an exclusive festival-inspired edit, featuring vibrant colors, allover logo prints, and unique graphics, coming soon.
