At Fashion Week Swim 2013 in Miami Beach, more than two dozen designers showed their collections of bathing suits and cover-ups for next year. Many looked to the past for inspiration, showing pin-up girl looks as well as styles inspired by the 1960s and ’70s.
Venice is the only “coloured” city way before the invention of colour itself: Canaletto, Guardi, Bellotto, Tiziano, Giorgione, Bellini, Veronese mastered here the art of perspective painting, and generally speaking ‘invented’ the colours of the lagoon on their canvas.
For the first time, Miami Fashion Week had a focus on Africa. African designers were invited to showcase their collections and there was a pop-up African pavilion where you could purchase pieces during the week. The fashion show was a great complement to the exhibition and allowed the spectators to see how the clothes fit and moved on models.
