For the win. This year’s submissions were extraordinary, and choosing a single winner was no easy task. But the final result? Nothing short of stunning. For our sixth-annual Bal Harbour Shops Creative Challenge, we’re thrilled to announce illustrator Bar Persi as our 2025 winner. Her fashionable, joy-filled depiction of the Shops—complete with a tribute to our Center Courtyard, iconic koi, and ever-stylish guests—captured us completely.
