Adelaide, you showed up for us. On Saturday, August 23rd, ORTC and al.ive body came together to celebrate a mutual love of neutrals, and what unfolded was a day we’ll never forget.

From the moment doors opened The Parade was lined with people ready to step inside and discover our new Apricot & Sweet Fig collection alongside ORTC’s latest neutral pieces.

Inside, the atmosphere was buzzing with energy. Guests moved through the space with coffees in hand, sampling skincare, enjoying custom ORTC x al.ive body chocolates and browsing curated collections styled to perfection... Every detail was considered, from the florals to the signage, creating a space that felt as timeless and curated as the products themselves.

The giveaways kept the excitement alive. Our first fifty arrivals walked away with a door prize valued at $209, while the next 150 walked away with gifts with purchase, the kind of surprise that made the ritual of a Saturday shop feel just a little more special.

A special highlight was having our founders, Alisa and Lysandra, in-store to meet guests, share the story behind Apricot & Sweet Fig, and celebrate this exciting partnership born from Adelaide roots and a shared aesthetic.

More than an event, it was a reminder of what happens when two Adelaide brands come together with a united vision. To everyone who queued early, shopped with us, sipped a coffee, and made the day what it was, thank you.
