Miami Swim Week Cruise 2011: Luli Fama at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Cruise 2011
Itsy-bitsy bikinis, colorful floral prints and gold metallic fabrics were just a few of the looks that Luli Fama sent down the catwalk for Cruise 2011. The runway show, which included a performance by singer Robert Elias, channeled the party spirit of the Caribbean. Created by Lourdes Hanimian and brother-in-law Augusto, the brand is perfectly suited to the beach scene in Miami, where it is based. “The Luli Fama girl likes to feel sexy, has confidence, loves to wear a swimsuit and show off,” Lourdes explained. And there were plenty of colorful prints to keep the party going. Vibrant digital prints appeared on everything from ruffled monokinis to the tiniest of ruched-back Brazilian cuts.—N. Jayne Seward
