It’s the middle of July, and you know what that means, Miami Swim Week is upon us! We’re particularly excited for this year’s lineup of shows and events because it’s been promised to be bigger and better than ever.
It’s no secret that living in South Florida has its advantages, one of them being that swimsuit season is every season, which means us fashionistas have to be on our swimwear game 365 days of the year. As Miami Swim Week has evolved, so has our personal style and love for all things swimwear. This will be our 4th year attending Miami Swim Week and love to see the changes made in the industry year after year.
So, what can you expect at Miami Swim Week this year? We’ll be on the lookout for more “athletic-looking” swimsuits with high-hip bottoms, tops that contain ties in the front opposed to the traditional tie in the back, and one-pieces!
Fabrics are softer and seamless with more of a flattering give to them. Gone are the days of tight bathing suits that pull on the skin, while riding up in the worst possible places. Designers are more in-tuned with what women want - effortless femininity.
You can still expect those tiny bottoms, but they will also come with a complimentary top that almost wears like a sports bra to go along with that athletic swimwear trend. Have no fear, one-piece suits aren’t going anywhere, but we expect to see more of low-cut Italian one-pieces with a Brazilian fit.
The shows are always great, but one of our favorite parts about attending Miami Swim Week are the events. Some of our favorite pieces come from the pop-up shop events we attend this weekend. We’ll be joining Face2Face Studios at their beauty pop-up shop during the Planet Fashion Miami Swim Week Event at the Loews Hotel Friday.
Be sure to follow us on Instagram (@LLScene) and Facebook (www.Facebook.com/LLScene) because we will be going live on both accounts before, during and after the shows with our favorite looks, trends, and accessories throughout the weekend. Each designer has promised a unique theme to each of their shows and we can’t wait to share them with you all! Here’s our current schedule so you can keep up!
