Miami Swim Week - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week

Talk about the right place and the right time! Miami Swim Week - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week kicks off in Miami Beach in mid-July with hundreds of taut, toned and tanned bathing beauties stalking the catwalks, filling the nightclubs and generally dazzling onlookers who gather to witness the latest trends in swimwear for the season. As summer heats up, the city fills with an international cadre of eager fashionistas determined to get the word out about the hottest designs.

The Raleigh Hotel hosts a number of important collections during Swim Week which has expanded to include resort-ready accessories like bags, sexy sandals, hats, and jewelry worn by the models as they strut their stuff on the poolside runway. Major hair and make-up companies also sponsor these shows to help promote their latest products and showcase new looks that work perfectly with a string bikini or a dramatic couture gown. While Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York garners international attention at Lincoln Center, the summer heat of Miami still captivates the world press and paparazzi who fill the streets hoping to capture celebrity guests, fashion designers and models at play.

While access to many of the runway presentations is restricted to media and registered fashion buyers, visitors to South Beach who are eager to be a part of the scene can attend fabulous after parties at all the major nightclubs or simply dress up to blend in with the great-looking crowds at host hotels. Follow updates from Mercedes Benz Fashion Week on Facebook and Twitter to learn about upcoming events and parties all over town and log onto the official website to see complete show schedules. If you find you are in town just after the shows, check out the Swim Week Sample Sale to get first dibs on next year's exclusive resort looks. Many items sold are one of a kind!
