This year the Raleigh Hotel in Miami Beach played host to the Sunglass Hut Swim Shows Miami presented by LYCRA®. Designers presented their 2006-swimwear collections in three venues around the hotel’s famous pool area.
The event began with an opening party on July 15th thrown by The Raleigh and Ocean Drive Magazine. On the evening of the 16th, shows by Speedo, Carmen Marc Valvo, Inca and Cosabella Mare, showcased the latest swimwear innovations and trends.
Rosa Cha by Amir Slama, Gideon Oberson, Red Carter, Becca, Esteban Cortazar and Shay Todd were just a few of the many designers who also showcased their latest collections.
“We couldn’t be more excited to launch Sunglass Hut Swim Shows Miami with these designers, representing the best of the industry and leaders in design," comments Fern Mallis, Vice-President of IMG.
South Beach designer, Red Carter displayed his latest collection poolside under the glow of red tinted lights. Cleverly named pieces, such as “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Hollywood Squares,” capture the lively energy of Carter’s Miami inspired designs.
Belted hipsters, halters and tunics played on the bohemian theme of the season with fresh flavor and flair. Masha Archer’s signature jewelry creations accentuated Carter’s sophisticated and sultry new collection of bikinis and one-pieces.
"Sunglasses, designer swimwear, a beautiful pool…there’s no place in the world more appropriate to have this event," Mallis says. “Miami and swimwear are inexorably linked and these collections will bring the fashion world’s attention to this fabulous city."
