The Colombian Trend Fashion Show brought a new spice to Miami Swim Week’s runway shows, featuring looks from six of the hottest Colombian designers at W Hotel South Beach’s Wet Deck Lounge this past Sunday. The show was sponsored by PROTELA and LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber.
The 2016 resort wear collections from Maaji, Agua Bendita, Hernan Zajar, Malai, Babalú and Saha were a hit with the hundreds of editors, buyers and industry professionals surrounding the pool’s floating runway.
As the bikini-clad models strutted to upbeat, remixed music, the crowd bounced along to match colorful energy showcased on the runway. Bright colors, multi-colored fabrics, and flashy details highlighted the culture and passion of each brand’s Colombian pride.
Maaji’s “Rhapsody Road” collection is inspired by happy-go-lucky adventure and a modernized bohemian look, whereas Agua Bendita played with vibrant prints and graphics. The look of Hernan Zajar’s showcase was a sensual, magical Caribbean flair, focusing on female form. Boho prints merged with contemporary design in Malai’s 2016 collection;Babalú’s detailed approach to comfort and originality looked to inspire positivity; and Saha’s clean silhouettes complemented the exciting patterns.
