With the full support of the City of Miami Beach, a number of in person fashion shows and presentations will be produced and live streamed following the strict CDC guidelines on social distancing and other methods preventing the spread of COVID-19. All swimwear enthusiasts will be able to RSVP to these events, and attend based on capacity.
“We are fortunate that Florida is reopening much more quickly than expected, making it possible for us to hold Paraiso Miami Beach just a month away from the originally scheduled dates”, said
Natalija Dedic Stojanovic, Creative director of PARAISO Miami Beach. “We understand the priorities and challenges that brands are facing at the moment. The fundamental platforms that
need to be re- activated for the fast recovery of the fashion system as a whole are trade and marketing platforms”, adds Natalija Dedic Stojanovic.
