Join us for a hands-on nail art workshop led by Alexandra Carrillo of bythepolish, where fashion meets press-on nails. Inspired by the slow fashion textiles of Production Mode, guests will curate custom sets based on designs that echo the textures and patterns of garments.

Alexandra Carrillo is a Chicago native and founder of Bythepolish, redefining what it means to wear art at your fingertips. During the pandemic, Alexandra began sharing thoughtful reviews of nail brands on Instagram. What started in 2019 as a passion project soon evolved into something far more profound. Through her posts, she uncovered a vibrant community of beauty lovers seeking connection, creativity, and meaning beyond the polish itself.
