Liliana Montoya Makes a Splash at Miami Swim Week With “Mermaids Are Real”🧜‍♀️#MAR

This Swim Week, Liliana Montoya Swim made waves with its stunning “Mermaids Are Real” collection, an exclusive showcase in partnership with Ocean Drive Magazine.

Channeling the strength, spirit, and sparkle of every woman.

The collection brings earthy tones, luxe textures, and empowering silhouettes to the runway,

All crafted for today’s modern Mermaid.

We’re excited to share a glimpse of our runway experience with you 💫

Inspired by the mystical power of Sirens,

A tribute to the resilience deep inside of all women, and the magic of believing in oneself.

Whether you joined us in person or cheered from afar — this is for YOU.

You’re at the heart of our story.

“As an artist, I understand the responsibility that relays in my hands, because swimwear is deeply connected to body image and self-esteem,” says Liliana Montoya.

That’s why I don’t see my work as just design, it’s a cultural influence.
My brand celebrates individuality, encourages self-love, and promotes confidence with every piece…This is more than a fashion statement,
It’s about making history as a Latina, a mother, and a creator —celebrating the legacy of the bikini and showing the world that #MermaidsAreReal.

The splash does not stop there.

Liliana’s impact goes beyond the runway — As the only Colombian designer featured in
HistoryMiami Museum’s “100 Years of Bikini” exhibit,
with two of her iconic bikinis on display:

Sustainable reversible trikini , highlighting her commitment to eco-conscious fashion
Creatively driven bikini, representing the artistic vision that defines the brand.
