PETIONVILLE, Haiti — For Haiti-born handbag designer Phelicia Dell, the accolades keep mounting.
Since winning the emerging handbag designer award from Vital Voices Global Partnership, Dell has been fielding calls and e-mails from fashionistas interested in her VèVè Collections line.
Handbag lovers in South Florida need not worry. Dell and her unique designs — which also include a clothing and accessories line — are coming to Miami for a fashion show at the Little Haiti Cultural Complex. Dell can also be reached via e-mail at phelidell@hotmail.com.
The event is being organized by Island TV owner Tamara Philippeaux, a Dell friend and fan. It will take place a day before the Racine Festival, a tribute to Haiti roots music.
“We felt it was very important to have a fashion show to feature her bags, clothing lines, accessories — everything that has to do with Phelicia,” said Philippeaux, who owns five of the bags. “I know how hard she has worked to get to where she is right now. It’s my way of giving back.”
The fashion show will take place from 7-10 p.m. Nov. 6 at the complex, 260 NE 59th Terrace. It will be free, but by invitation-only. Contact Caribbean American Visual Cultural Preservation at 954- 260-8109.

I would love to purchase three bags before the November show, as I need some birthday gifts and they would be perfect! Actually, I need one for this Saturday, Sept. 12!!! Please let me know where I can get one! Thank you!
Just an amazing site!
You are the greatest!
It would have been nice to acknowledge that Murielle Leconte with her MurielleCreations design has paved the way to other new artists and particularly Phaelicia. Anyway, it is worth knowing that she won over this past week the great prize of Excellence at the International Island fashion week in Bahamas.
