It’s always a great vibe when the General Collective creative community descends on Ponsonby Central.
Come in out of the cold this weekend, weave your way through the eateries and mingling locals and head upstairs to The Sapphire Room to experience a beautiful showcase of New Zealand designed homewares, fashion, baby gear, jewellery, skincare and more!
With over thirty stalls, and an exciting handful of new vendors, General Collective celebrates local makers and creatives with a curated selection of New Zealand brands.
Making their General Collective debut at Ponsonby Central is Chasing Sand, a boutique children’s clothing brand creating beautiful collections of baby and childrens decor, fashion and accessories with each item being handmade here in Aotearoa.
Proper Soaps, a real soap company, make soap the old fashioned way, the proper way to ensure high quality in every single bar. Bars tailored for the face, body, baby and even a fur specific dog range. A first in the New Zealand market to produce hemp seed spreads, The Hemp Butter Co focuses on creating premium plant based spreads that are nutritious, natural and nutty delicious, using hemp seeds and tree nuts.
The Tea Box offers interesting, fun & practical bubble tea kits to create your own bubble tea at home, tailored to suit individual tastes.
Plus, catch up with Auckland fashion designer Brigid McLaughlan of Ribbon On A Bombshell who will have market specials from her ever changing range of women’s clothing. Nooan will be back - after their recent debut at the General Collective Lifestyle & Design Market which proved to be a popular addition to the event - with their beautiful socks.
They claim that they’ll be the best you’ve ever worn! Made with the top premium natural materials that New Zealand can offer, they’re warmer than cashmere, odour resistant, lightweight, soft, & non-itch.
Come and support New Zealand’s creative community, shop local and enjoy the buzzing atmosphere, great restaurants and cafes at Ponsonby Central this weekend.
