Kisuii collaborates with Nannacay

Kisuii and Nannacay took it all the way South to Miami Beach for Swim Week
to debut their new capsule collection for resort 2019. Founded in 2016,
Kisuii is a luxury swim and resort wear brand specializing in pieces
infused with ready-to-wear elements for jet setting customers. For resort
2019 Leora Elituv, founder of Kisuii, teamed up with Nannacay founder and
designer, Marcia Kemp for a capsule collection.

Both Elituv and Kemp are known for practically being nomads always
traveling around the globe. The collaboration was perfect for the two of
them, since they share the same brand ethos of using fashion to empower
women.

The inspiration for the collaboration was the art of the escape, and the
pure bliss of sun and the sand. Both designers sought to create an ode to
the female voyager; strong, independent yet playful and feminine. Kisuii’s
custom prints were a nod to
vintage sixties Hawaiian motifs, reimagined for the modern woman using the
brand’s signature smocking details. The other details of the collection
were also very sixties with cotton silks mixed with lace, embroidered
eyelet, kaftans and a light, carefree flowing fit to the dresses.

Handwoven bags in collaboration with Nannacay are a signature part of the
collection. The capsule contains 8 swim styles that emulate the same wrap
and stitch details of the Nannacay x Kisuii Rogue bag straps. There are 2
bags within the collection – one that coincides with the color palette of
the swim capsule and another in black and white.

“Collaborating with Nannacay was a no-brainer to me. We overlap so much
aesthetically and we’re both women brands that are passionate about female
empowerment, fashion and travel,” Elituv said in a statement.

“We’re so happy to have found in Kisuii a partner that shares the same
ethos as us and to be able to collaborate on a capsule that combines both
our passions so effortlessly is truly special to me,” added Kemp.

The collection will roll out at retail October 2019. Price points have yet
to be determined.
