Samba Nights Has Arrived!

Designer, Celeste Johnny brings the sexiness and mystery of Brazil to life in her Resort 2011 collection, inspired by what she calls “Samba Nights”.The Collection stays true to Celeste’s use of vibrant colors. The colors selected are her vision of nights over Rio: Hues of red, purple, turquoise….and her trademark Hot Pink.Celeste has always thought of swimwear as transitional pieces.

Her pieces can be worn during a fashionable poolside party, and with the addition of a skirt or pant, you are ready for a sunset catamaran cruise. Johnny Vincent truly epitomizes resortwear-if there were a category for “yachtwear” this would be it.

Celeste sends a special thank you to Sergio Mendes.  His music kept her motivated and helped her stay true to her vision of Brazil. “The song Magalenha not only kept me dancing, but sketching as well.   I was so motivated listening to his music and wanted the designs to reflect what I imagined a night in Rio listening to that song would be like. What colors would you see, how would the people be moving, what would they look like? I wanted the collection to reflect the sexiness, the passion and the beauty of Brazil”
