MIAMI SWIM WEEK – THE SHOWS 2025: WHERE STYLE MADE A SPLASH
Miami turned up the heat this summer as Miami Swim Week – The Shows made a sun-drenched, star-studded return to the Mondrian South Beach from May 28 to June 1. With Australian Gold and Everlast as official sponsors, the iconic hotel was transformed into a buzzing epicenter of global swimwear innovation, dripping in glamour, color, and creativity.
Over five high-octane days, designers from around the world collided in a fashion-meets-fantasy experience that blurred the lines between swimwear, art, and performance. From nostalgic Y2K throwbacks to futuristic, body-sculpting silhouettes, each runway moment offered a bold, unapologetic celebration of individuality.
Autty Simone
Autty Simone kicked off the week with serious main character energy. Think sparkling mini dresses, retro caps, and thigh-high boots in a rainbow of metallics. It was Y2K meets it-girl era, and we were here for every shimmering second.
Montage
Next up: Montage Swimwear made waves with not one but twelve signature collections designed by top models turned fashion creatives. Their bold vision burst onto the runway with electric blues, fiery reds, and flirty cuts—proving once again that swimwear can be both playful and couture-worthy.
EVERLAST
Everlast® brought unexpected edge with its first-ever Emerging Designer Competition. Five rising labels—LeLINZI, Kene Kaya, MERC Swim, Electric Picks, and Sovereign Society Couture—partnered with the iconic brand to create capsule collections that punched above their weight. Fusing fashion with Everlast’s boxing roots, the collections redefined what athletic swimwear can be: elevated, empowering, and unafraid.
Lila Nikole
Closing night was nothing short of iconic as Lila Nikole Rivera celebrated the 15th anniversary of the Lila Nikole Collection with a dazzling debut of her “Quince” collection. With a cast of bold swimwear, fringe skirts, feathered sun shirts, and sheer outerwear, it was a visual symphony of prints, patterns, and pride. VIPs including Flo Rida, Cuba Gooding Jr., Pink Sweat$, and Alonzo Mourning lit up the front row before dancing the night away at a Casamigos-fueled afterparty that pulsed with Miami energy.
Some other dynamic lineup of designers hit the runway, during Miami Swim Week The Shows, including Mars the Label, Noblesse Privèe, O Niki, Naava Swim, Omni Beach Life, Haus of McLees, Atelier Martinez, Moda Minx, Nur Karaata, Bambu Brasil, Tempt Me, Kolibri, Eme Swim, E Kaye Collection, Relleciga, Normal Culture, Hello LA Girl, Mars the Label, Noblesse Privèe, O Niki, Naava Swim, Omni Beach Life, Haus of McLees, Atelier Martinez, Moda Minx, Nur Karaata, Bambu Brasil, Tempt Me, Kolibri, Eme Swim, E Kaye Collection, Relleciga, Normal Culture, Hello LA Girl, and more

From the front row to the afterglow, Miami Swim Week – The Shows 2025 proved one thing loud and clear: this is not just about bikinis—it’s about bold vision, fearless fashion, and a city that knows how to throw the most stylish splash of the season.
