Peruvian Swimwear Company Aguaclara Takes Us to the Amazon for 2017 Miami Swim Week Runway Show

Aguaclara Presents Clear Vision at Miami Swim Week

The FUNKSHION tent was buzzing with excitement on July 22, 2017 as Aguaclara debuted their exotically sophisticated 2018 collection at Miami Swim Week.

Creative Director Liliana Villalobos wanted to create a collection that would seduce and surprise the spirit. Drawing inspiration from her Amazon roots, Villalobos masterfully blended a retro style with deep blues, enigmatic reds, golden yellows and exotic greens to create a bold expression of color, sensuality and magical intensity.

Aguaclara’s concept for their 2018 collection is a lifestyle of summer-wear for the whole day where bikinis, one-pieces and sophisticated beachgowns complement each other. These show-stopping pieces can be taken straight from the beach to hanging out on warm, summer nights, to parties by the pool and exclusive beach gatherings.

Stunning Folk and Mercado Rose lines, created by Villalobos, feature elaborate and detailed brocades with applications of ribbons and colorful cloths, flowers and decorative embroidery.

Refinement comes in the form of Italian lace this season. Exquisite golden filigrees applied over lycra result in a delicate elegance which is unique in swimwear and beachwear.

Keeping with the Boho trend, Aguaclara’s use of fringe, pompoms and crossed lace, offers a very chic and glamorous gypsy look while providing supreme quality, gracious movement and quite sensuality.

Delicate 100% silks and fine-silk gauzes are the highlights of the beachgowns, giving an ethereal style to blouses, kimonos, jumpsuits, long skirts, mini dresses and long kaftans.

“I interpret Nature’s Spirit as a lifestyle for women where femininity is complemented by boldness, and sensuality with elegance.” – Liliana Villalobos, Creative Director
