SANTA MONICA, CA, Sept. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Oliveda International, Inc. (OTCID: OLVI) today announced that its OLIVE TREE PEOPLE subsidiary and the Olive Rose makeup brand are joining forces with internationally acclaimed fashion designer Bibhu Mohapatra for his New York Fashion Week show in the Grand Ballroom of The Pierre Hotel in Manhattan.
For more than 4,000 years, the olive tree has been one of humanity’s most enduring symbols of beauty, vitality and transformation.
This Monday, it becomes couture.
Bibhu Mohapatra is transforming the world of Olive Tree People and Olive Rose into an exclusive couture creation – while than 20 makeup artists and an unprecedented front-row beauty ritual take over New York Fashion Week.
At the heart of the collaboration will be the unveiling of a one-of-one Olive Rose gown, created by Mohapatra exclusively for Olive Tree People, Oliveda and Olive Rose.
The design brings together two worlds: the olive tree, represented through its iconic leaves, and Olive Rose, expressed through the beauty and sensuality of the rose.
It is not simply a dress featuring the symbols of two brands.
It is the story of an ancient tree transformed into modern couture.
The olive tree becomes fashion.
The rose becomes movement.
And a 4,000-year-old beauty secret walks the runway.
“For thousands of years, the olive tree has represented beauty, strength and life. Bibhu did not simply place olive leaves and roses on a dress. He translated the soul of our world into couture. On Monday, the olive tree will no longer stand beside the runway. It will walk it,” said Thomas Lommel, Founder of Olive Tree People.
MORE THAN A BEAUTY PARTNERSHIP
Behind the scenes, Olive Tree People and Olive Rose will lead the beauty experience for the show.
A team of more than 20 makeup artists, under the direction of Olive Rose Chief Celebrity Makeup Artist Luis Casco, will create the runway beauty looks and prepare the models and invited VIP guests.
Olive Rose first appeared at New York Fashion Week last year, where it was celebrated as the world’s only makeup line based on Hydroxytyrosol.
This year, Olive Rose returns on an entirely new scale – not only on the faces of the models, but as the inspiration for an exclusive Bibhu Mohapatra couture creation and an unforgettable beauty experience extending from backstage to the front row.
THE FRONT ROW WILL BECOME PART OF THE SHOW
In keeping with an Olive Tree People tradition, guests will be offered individually hand-braided olive crowns—an ancient symbol of beauty, peace, strength and victory.
But this year, the tradition will be taken one step further.
To celebrate the launch of the new Olive Tree People Hydroxytyrosol Hydrogel Face Masks and Eye Patches, front-row guests will be invited to participate in a choreographed beauty ritual before the runway show begins.
Wearing the new Hydroxytyrosol treatments together with their olive crowns, the most photographed guests in the room will create one of New York Fashion Week’s most unexpected images:
An entire front row crowned by the olive tree—with their faces beneath Hydroxytyrosol masks.
For a few extraordinary minutes, the front row will stop observing beauty and begin experiencing it.
No hiding the treatment behind a bathroom door.
No pretending beauty happens effortlessly.
No waiting until Fashion Week is over to take care of the skin.
Instead, skincare will take the best seat in fashion.
FROM BACKSTAGE TO THE RUNWAY—AND ONTO THE SKIN
The collaboration connects every part of the Olive Tree People universe.
The olive tree inspires the dress.
Olive Rose creates the color.
Hydroxytyrosol touches the skin.
The olive crowns transform the guests.
And Bibhu Mohapatra brings the entire story to life through fashion.
It is a meeting of ancient beauty intelligence and modern creative expression—inside one of Manhattan’s most iconic ballrooms.
One ancient tree.
One exclusive couture creation.
More than 20 makeup artists.
And a front row New York Fashion Week will not forget.
