Miami Swim Week® - The Shows

A multi-day fashion platform brings runway shows, industry programming and brand activations to Miami Beach as part of the city’s broader Miami Swim Week calendar. Taking place May 27–31, Miami Swim Week® – The Shows is headquartered at the Mondrian South Beach, with events unfolding across more than 20 venues throughout Miami Beach.

Runway Shows at Miami Swim Week® – The Shows

More than 50 runway shows highlight collections from over 150 national and international designers, with participants representing countries including the U.K., Colombia, Italy, Brazil, Australia and China. The Mondrian South Beach serves as the central runway hub, hosting both individual designer showcases and curated group presentations, while satellite events across the city expand the program’s reach.

The 2026 edition also introduces enhanced production elements, including large-scale LED staging and immersive audiovisual design, reflecting a continued evolution in presentation format.

Industry Programming and Trade Experiences

The program includes retail showrooms, buyer receptions and panel discussions designed to connect designers with industry professionals. A newly introduced Casa Hammock showroom provides a direct-to-buyer environment where designers can present collections to retailers, media and stylists.

Additional programming spans conversations on sustainability, innovation and the future of fashion, alongside networking opportunities that support both emerging and established brands.

Wellness, Lifestyle and Public Activations

Beyond the runway, the event incorporates wellness sessions, beauty activations and public-facing retail experiences. The expanded Swim Fit and Wellness Club Series features programming across multiple locations, blending fitness, mindfulness and fashion-adjacent experiences.

Daytime activations, including early-week programming and an open model casting, help set the tone for a schedule that extends beyond traditional runway formats.

Citywide Events and Cultural Programming in Miami Beach

A series of receptions, media events and after-parties extend programming into Miami Beach’s cultural and nightlife spaces, creating opportunities for connection across the fashion and creative communities. The event continues to function as a citywide platform where fashion, wellness and entertainment intersect.

The 2026 edition operates under new leadership, with CEO Sean Rashid and fashion director Elizabeth Claros guiding an expanded, globally focused vision for the platform.
