Miami Style: Rebecca Virtue Swimwear Embraces Green Fabrics

A few weeks back I was invited to SPLASHION, a runway show featuring Rebecca Virtue swimwear, at the super hip club SET, in SoBe, where a Euro-preppy crowd regularly dances the night away! Becca's bikinis were to die for: super cool styles and colors with metallics, prints, rings and satins, gold cuffs, and newly launched bags and hats. The models were fantastic, with an urban sophistication and a great swing walk, big hair and the must-have glasses. I also found out, speaking to other fans there, that Becs has been using bamboo fabrics and fabric made from soy to show her respect for the environment. Nice! Check out my slideshow and get in line for her 2009 line!
