Miami Swim Week Cruise 2011: Ed Hardy Swimwear at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim
Ed Hardy Swimwear turned out a Cruise 2011 collection that didn’t deviate from the Los Angeles brand’s more-is-more aesthetic. Foil, crystals, mesh, layers of tattoo-inspired graphics, chains, studs and grommets bedazzled both women’s bikinis and men’s boardshorts. The July 16 show at The Raleigh during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim in Miami Beach was one of the hottest tickets of the night and featured a party atmosphere that complemented the in-your-face quality of the suits. Some stand-out pieces include a bikini that featured at lace up bustier top and a collection of suits with a sporty, vintage collegiate theme.—Erin Barajas
