MIKOH

WE ARE THRILLED TO SHARE MIKOH’S DEBUT RUNWAY SHOW AT THIS YEAR’S 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF MERCEDES-BENZ  SWIM WEEK IN MIAMI. WE WANT TO THANK MERCEDES-BENZ FOR CHOOSING MIKOH TO BE PART OF SWIM WEEK AND GIVING US THIS SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY TO SEE OUR COLLECTION GRACE THE RUNWAY. THE PROCESS OF GETTING TO THIS POINT HAS BEEN AT MOST REWARDING AFTER THE YEARS OF HARD WORK AND STRONG VISION.

“IMG FASHION FIRST BROUGHT ITS RUNWAY ACUMEN TO SOUTH BEACH IN 2004. BY OFFERING A PLATFORM FOR SWIM DESIGNERS TO DEBUT THEIR RESORT COLLECTION AT PRIVATE, INVITE-ONLY SHOWS, THE ONGOING PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN IMG AND MERCEDES-BENZ FASHION WEEK HAS TURNED MIAMI INTO A HUB FOR BOTH EMERGING AND ESTABLISHED LABELS.” READ MORE ABOUT THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF MERCEDES-BENZ FASHION WEEK HERE.

WE’D LIKE TO SHARE SOME OF OUR FAVORITE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE SHOW:
– OPENING TAHITIAN DANCERS PERFORMING A TRADITIONAL TAHITIAN DANCE. THE THREE BEAUTIES WORE MIKOH X SURF NEOPRENE PIECES AND WERE OUTFITTED IN HEAD TO TOE BLACK HAU/TAHITIAN GRASS SKIRTS.
– NEW WOVEN DETAILING, INSPIRED BY TAHITIAN ARTISTRY.
– NEW EXCITING PRINTS INCLUDING A SAMOAN INSPIRED PRINT, CRASHING WHITE WATER, POLYNESIAN PALM TREES, AND A FASHION SHOW FAVORITE- THE NEW “NATIVE” PRINT WHICH IS QUINTESSENTIAL TO ART AND CULTURE THROUGHOUT THE SOUTH PACIFIC.
-THE HAKU LEI HEAD PIECES GRACEFULLY WORN BY A FEW MODELS ON THE RUNWAY, IN ADDITION TO THE TAHITIAN DANCERS
