Miami Beach, FL – July 11, 2019 – Erin Michelle Newberg and Jilian Lourdes Sanz joined forces to gather an impressive group of influencers, models, stylists and editors in honor of the launch of Vetchy, a new sustainable swimwear line released in accordance with Miami Swim Week, 2019. The journalists and girls about town hosted the luncheon at Vista, a beautiful garden-laden restaurant in Miami’s Upper Buena Vista area. In attendance were a strong mix of both local and visiting influencers who are in Miami focused on the swimwear industry, this week. Particularly of interest is the sustainability aspect of the brand which is a major focus for design duo Charo Perez and Shaaz Ahmed who have worked diligently on ensuring a sustainable approach to swimwear design employing the use of plastic bottles that would otherwise be waste, in the creation of their product. Guest sipped on Aperol spritzes while enjoying the sounds of resident DJ, Edwin who is a staple at Vista. Customizable hair tie stations courtesy of By Lilla allowed for guests in attendance to make their own accessories and gift bags included Pantenger tea, Agatha Ruiz de la Prada nail polishes, blow outs courtesy of Glam + Go, Shore Club, and sandals from Samba Sol. Miami Beach Bum products ensure a clear toosh and for that face, Trish McEvoy had a touch up station to ensure a beautiful complexion—the brand also sent guests home with samples to ensure the look could be kept up at home. In attendance were Danielle Kudson, Melody de la Fe, Jelena Cikoja, Irma Martinez, Gabriela Medina, Maria Tettamanti, Danie Gomez Ortigoza, Angeles Almuna and many more.
