Miami Swim Week is officially here, designers from all over the world will exhibit their designs at Swim Week 2021 powered by Art Hearts Fashion. Creative Director and C.E.O of House of Skye, Skye Yayoi Drynan will showcase her functional and fashionable “Sexyback Bra” on July 11th at 10 pm at The Faena Forum in Miami Beach.

The must-have bra can be styled in over 12 ways, making it the most versatile undergarment in the world. The sexy and functional bra is freeing women from the classic strapless or sticky bras that have become popular on social media. Owner and Designer, Skye Drynan created a one-of-a-kind bra for all women, from the light to busty ladies perfect for any occasion. The SexyBack Bra has 22 tabs that provide a variety of bra styles at your fingertips. Easily switch styles by moving the bra hooks to adjust to any dress or top style. Skye, has been an inventor and in the biotech industry for decades, this is why she sought to fill the void in “backless bras”. As the visionary behind House of Skye, the self-made Skye Drynan looks to fuse her invaluable experience as an entrepreneur and inventor with her taste for high fashion to deliver the function and versatility that women need in fashion. Rooted in luxury, the House of Skye brand offers thoughtfully couture design, unrivaled craftsmanship, and the utmost quality.

Her journey began in 2016 when she gave up on all the current fad bras and custom bras you would see in stores. Avoiding wardrobe malfunctions like a silicone pasted bra slipping away in the middle of the night, she began designing a sexy, fashionable, and comfortable bra, one that would hold in all the right places all while allowing for the perfect look while wearing backless dresses or tops. Although she has designed and patented the most versatile bra in the world, Skye comes from humble beginnings. From waiting tables and bartending to working her way up the corporate ladder on Wall Street in the ’90s, to being in the forefront of genetics, and later funding some of the world’s biggest medical breakthroughs, Skye’s track record shows nothing short of success.

“When I began this journey I wanted to engineer the perfect backless bra for my girlfriends and I,“ Said Skye Yayoi Drynan, Designer and C.E.O of House of Skye, “ However, in the process, I realized there was a huge void to be filled in the industry, fast forward 5 years later, we have the most revolutionary and versatile bra with 7 patents 2 for its utility and 5 for its design in over 111 countries, came to life! ” Skye says.

The collection is launching this weekend at Miami Swim Week, July 11, 2021, at 10 PM. The House of Skye “Transformer Sexy Bra” collection will feature 6 designs from nude, black, a sexy snakeskin to luxurious rose gold, all showcasing its various use, from backless to one shoulder, to everyday wear.

RSVP / Register
Cost: Free

Funding Arts Broward (FAB), leading arts ambassadors in Broward County, will present A Night at the NSU Art Museum, a virtual program, on Monday, April 19, at 5:30 p.m. Hosted by Bonnie Clearwater, FAB member and director and chief curator of NSU Art Museum Fort Lauderdale, this free “friend”raiser program will feature a tour of the museum’s newest exhibit, “The World of Anna Sui.” The presentation will also introduce “Eric N. Mack: Lemme Walk Across the Room” and “Iké Udé: Select Portraits,” two other exhibits on display. A Q & A session will follow the tour and presentation.

Dedicated to supporting, sustaining and enriching the arts in our community, FAB creates captivating programming, entertainment and events for its members and the public that spotlights our region’s unique cultural offerings.
This is the eighth installment of the FAB Presents virtual pop-up series. Previous programs are available on FAB’s YouTube channel.

Thematically arranged, the exhibition explores Sui’s lifelong engagement with an array of ‘archetypes’ including the rock star, the schoolgirl, the punk, nomads, and surfers — motifs that are featured throughout her work. Hallmark outfits include Sui’s “Silver Peruvian Ensemble” and iconic sequined silk organza “Babydoll Dress” from Spring 1994. Items on view also include fashions worn by Sui’s personal style icons who include Anita Pallenberg and Jane Holzer.

The range of different styles on display emphasize Anna Sui’s consistent design approach as she incorporates her current passions into every garment. As it celebrates American fashion, the exhibition also provides a fascinating guide to the history of American pop culture, and an inside look into the creative process and unique world view of this iconic designer whose daring and experimental approach to design has become a mainstay of the international fashion scene.

“The World of Anna Sui” is organized by the Fashion and Textile Museum, London and is curated by Dennis Nothdruft.

QUEEN BEAUTY UNIVERSE MAKES DEBUT IN SOUTHEAST FLORIDA

Miami Hosts International Pageant for Models
LOS ANGELES, CA., July 19, 2019 – International beauty and modeling competition – Queen Beauty Universe set for July 28, 2019 at Miami’s JL Knight Center who last hosted a major beauty pageant 24 years ago – the Miss Universe pageant in 1985.
Originating from Spain, the nearly decade-old Queen Beauty Universe competition known by Hispanic and Latino communities around the world as La Reina Belleza Universo, was recently acquired by a US beauty brand marketing company Brodeur Kazanjian Beauty & Fashion in collaboration with international model and talent management company J. Severin Talent.
Dubbed, “the pageant for models”, Queen Beauty Universe has been described by industry insiders as where Top Model / Next Top Model meets Miss Universe. The show will be hosted by Venezuelan model, actress and former Miss Universe Dayana Mendoza and Miami-based Venezuelan actor Willy Martin known for hosting EVTV Miami show Chic Al Dia and as a member of the cast of Telemundo’s popular telenovela Betty en NY.
Partner hotel The Hyatt Regency Miami will host 30 contestants from Europe, South America, North America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, Latin America and Asia. The contestants – models, actresses, TV hosts and performing artists – will compete in swimsuit, spokesmodel and couture gown competitions for a chance to win a cash and prize package valued at nearly $75k that includes modeling contracts, brand collaborations, TV hosting and other opportunities.
“We chose Miami for several important reasons. First, I was born here, and a lot of my family still lives in the area, so it was important to me to bring a business that I love to a city that I love,” said Thom Brodeur-Kazanjian, CEO of Queen Beauty Universe. Also, Miami is where the African American, Latino, Afro-Latino and Afro-Caribbean cultures and communities converge in a really special and unique way unlike anywhere else in the United States, and quite possibly the world. These cultures are big consumers of beauty pageants and love to celebrate beauty, unapologetically. Since that’s what our brand is about, Miami is the right home for us,” said Brodeur-Kazanjian.
Headlining the show are Puerto Rican Hip Pop artist Estacks and Broadway Showtune vocalist Morgane Grace. A special guest appearance will be made by model & actor Jordan Kimball best known for his appearances on ABC’s hit shows The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise.

André Leon Talley has been a fixture in the world of fashion for so long that it’s difficult to imagine a time when he wasn’t defining the boundaries of great style. Kate Novack’s intimate portrait, The Gospel According to André takes viewers on an emotional journey from André’s roots growing up in the segregated Jim Crow South to become one of the most influential tastemakers and fashion curators of our times.

Novack’s film draws fascinating, heretofore unexplored connections, between the elegance of André’s beloved grandmother and the Black Church of his youth and his later iconic, barrier-breaking work at publications like Women’s Wear Daily, W and Vogue. Weaving together a wealth of archival footage from the most glamorous moments in fashion history with André’s poignant reflections on his life and career, The Gospel According to André is a cinematic monument to one of the most unique figures of 20th Century American culture.

Produced by the team who brought viewers The First Monday in May and Page One: Inside The New York Times and featuring commentary from fashion luminaries including Anna Wintour, Marc Jacobs and Tom Ford, The Gospel According to André is an indispensable addition to the growing canon of fashion documentary.

On Saturday, Jan. 27, Istituto Marangoni Miami-the first U.S. campus of Italy’s leading fashion, art and design school-will bring together industry leaders, alumni and celebrities for a VIP ribbon cutting and grand opening party in Miami’s Design District. The exclusive evening, hosted by campus President Hakan Baykam, will infuse new energy into the city’s fashion scene and will be the first step to legitimizing Miami as a serious fashion capital of the world. The event features tours of the finished building, a fashion show showcasing alumni designs as well as a high-energy after party performance from DJ Mia Moretti and Margot of the Dolls. The group is known for creating soundtracks for fashion’s most recognizable brands, such as Moschino and Alice & Olivia; opening for major acts like Katy Perry, Diana Ross and Stevie Wonder; and for performing at the Met Ball after party, the Louvre and the Guggenheim. The Dolls will be joined on stage by a troupe of voguers, who will amp up excitement for the first class of Istituto Marangoni students in Miami.

The evening will begin with a ceremonial ribbon cutting and cocktail hour at the new campus, where guests will toast to the brand’s expansion. Roberto Riccio, CEO of Marangoni Group, and Hakan Baykam will give their opening remarks and welcome the audience to a first look of the seven-story building. Guests can then go on self-guided tours throughout the space and view the unique mannequins outfitted by Istituto Marangoni alumni, Piazzalunga.

After the cocktail party, attendees will be escorted to the iconic Moore Building, known for its distinct Zaha Hadid installation. The space will be transformed into a futuristic garden featuring flower fantasies and modern motifs. Envisioned by StudioKhom, the concept is inspired by classic Italian gardens and is designed to be the epitome of elegance and style. Guests will be seated to enjoy the fashion show, which will showcase collections from recent alumni Ece Sahin, Claudio Potenti, Lu Xia, Irina Demyanchuk and Armando Costa. With bold colors and avant-garde flair, the show will be representative of the diverse skills and techniques taught by Istituto Marangoni professors. Guests are also invited to use the interactive Istituto Marangoni-branded social wall and photo booth that will be on-site.

At the end of the night, there will be dancing, light bites and flowing champagne, and guests will be treated to a two-hour, high-energy set by the Dolls.

To guarantee the best outcome, the collection of art is chosen by knowledgeable art experts and curators from some of the world’s most prestigious art museums and galleries.
