Miami Swim Fashion Week (video)
Cia Maritima Swimwear Summer 2013: Bikini Models at Miami Swim Fashion Week - swimwear capital of the world - Miami, Florida. The Cia Martima 2013 fashion show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim - As one of Brazil's most successful swimwear companies, Cia Maritima is known for its handwork, embroidery, feminine prints and detailing, bringing that South American glitz to the U.S. Brazilian designer, Benny Rosset has been extremely successful for his modern techniques and technology in fabrics, beadings and lace. The flawless summer tans, long straight and sleek hair and natural makeup made the runway show a hit. Rosset created a sexy collection of jungle prints, vibrant colors such as hot pink, lime green, royal blue, white, teal and purple as well as leopard printed caftans, cover ups and color-dipped triangle tops. Rosset completed a job well done by capturing the tropics into his designs, representing the Floridian and Californian theme. His chiffon cover-ups with gold embellishments and elastic waistbands created that sporty touch to the line. . . .

A passion for fashion in Miami
A passion for fashion in South Florida - Bradenton Herald: " . . . Among the benefits of being based in Miami is lower costs. Chang figures he pays one quarter of what he would have to spend in New York, for everything from salaries to space. One of the challenges designers face, however, is the lack of a fabric district. In New York, a designer can easily run down the street to stock up on raw materials, Parsons said. . . . Fashion design, of course, is not new to South Florida. As an industry, it has seen its ups and downs, particularly as much of manufacturing has moved overseas. . . . "There was a lot of apparel migration from New York in the late '50s and '60s -- it started in Wynwood and Hialeah, and it was a time when Cuban refugees were coming in that created a great, talented labor force, with intelligent, hardworking, loyal people," Varat said. Today, the industry is experiencing a revival, and new fashion lines are constantly emerging. Take designer Alessia Solari, who launched her line of sandals earlier this year. Such newcomers supplement other growing South Florida brands -- like Bogosse, Liancarlo, Petit Pois and Peace Love World. And while designers once started with wholesale and then opened their own shops after they became established, nowadays many designers start out selling their designs online or at their own stores, like designer Arianne Brown, who sells her Ramona La Rue by Arianne line at her stores in Midtown, Coconut Grove and Miami Beach, and just opened a fourth store Saturday in Fort Lauderdale. . . ."
