Funkshion & Green Fashion 2009 Miami breezes and the sands of South Beach in Lummus Park were host to the first ever eco-friendly Green Fashion Show 2009 in collaboration with Funkshion Fashion & Music. Designers showcased their collections of recyclable, bio-friendly, earthy-funkshional runway designs with the hot, eclectic styles of Latin infused trends. Using organic styling products and makeup, the entire green fashion look on the runway was bio-friendly. Green, organic eco-fashion is the newest fad in clothing emerging all over the globe starting with the first ever green fashion magazine Boho as well as Si-Gruen which covers fashion, travel, health and other ways to live a green lifestyle, green fashion sites, blogs, tips and hints and a gamut of green clothing lines. One of my favorite lines is Jackpot, originally based in Copenhagen; they are supporting organic farmers worldwide, using 100% cotton materials. The newest line Flower Sensations is a huge success and all the while maintaining the cool, stylish airy feel Jackpot is known for. Banana Republic also recently launched their first green piece collection made with 100% recycled paper and with tags such and Bamboo Print this and Leaf Tee that, who can resist. Designers present at the Funkshion Fashion Show were energized and inspired by “green” and experimented with bubble skirts; basket dresses; ruffled, shimmering silk; slouchy, chic draping; vibrant jeweled-toned color pallets; bamboo accents; intimate, subtle, earthy tones and wild safari inspired prints. Curve Boutique debuted a fabulous fall/winter line at The Setai Hotel along with pieces from Preen London and Unconditional. Under the canopy of cool night air and a slick runway surrounded by water, these one of a kind products were hip, funky and trendy chic. The first formal public appearance of a boutique store debuting different designers lines was officially a hit. Totally structured wearable collections using classic lines and interchangeable pieces with a slight rock edge. Diana Dorozhkina from Kiev showcased her rich, luxurious line known for the ultimate in precision, quality and craftsmanship. The airy flowing presence of her pieces on the runway left everyone in awe at her talent and sophistication. Not that there were any doubts. Miami beaches are lined with the hottest bikini styles, bold prints and the ultimate in sexy swimwear. Gorgeous designs and big labels such as Luli Fama, Betsey Johnson, Ed Hardy, Alexandra Marques and Maya Swimwear make appearances on the white sands of South Beach. Maya was a huge presence in Funkshion and a runway spectacular with beautiful sensuous, lingerie styled swimsuits and print wraps. Maya is known for its structured, precision cuts and detailed designs made just for the female form. Maya Swimwear has caught the attention of media around the world and the interest of the Mirabella Group. Mirabella Group is a firm which focuses primarily on the fashion industry and provided the backing Maya Swimwear needed to continue to be a successful, international venture. Receiving tons of media attention for his number one hit single “Whatever You Like”, T.I. gave everyone a glimpse of his glamorous new line under the big tents. Also known for “Swagger Like Us” which exhibits the cool sounds of T.I. and M.I.A. as well his collaboration with Rihanna on “Live Your Life” which just received the Vodaphone Australian Awards, T.I. is proving that there is more than meets the eye.
