Fashion Designer Amy Smilovic and I in South Beach
Amy Smilovic showed her latest 2011 Spring Collection of Tibi under the tents at Lincoln Park the other day and I’m so sad I missed it. I’ve been invited to a couple of her shows, one in NYC and one in South Beach for her swimwear line.I had so much fun meeting her family and watching the show. Her clothing has great movement with simple lines and always sexy. Amy is truly talented and I had the pleasure of meeting her here in Atlanta a few years back. Let’s take a look at her latest collection!

My fav dress,wow!
My friend Amy Smilovic showed her Fall line at fashion week, and all I can say is wow! I really love to support women in business and she is doing such a wonderful job at Tibi! Amy and I met at a Ladies Who Launch event in Atlanta and every since then she has invited me to her fashion shows and she is such a sweet lady. I covered her fashion show in Miami last summer for her swimwear line and I met her family and they were so sweet.
Well take a look at some of her latest fashions, I love the blues and burgundy colors that she used. I also love the sparkly sequin dresses too. Amy if you’re reading I will be back at your show in Miami, I had a wonderful time last year! Enjoy the pics/video everyone and happy Wednesday!
As you guys already know, I was away covering Mercedez-Benz Fashion week/swim. Omg, I had an amazing time!It was my very first time ever visiting South Beach,Miami! Everything was Pinktastic,can I say that again,yes “Pinktastic”! I came back home wanting to buy every long breezy sun dress I could find lol. The people and fashions there were to die for, wow!

I had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful lady by the name of Amy Smilovic here in Atlanta,Ga at an event, and we kept in touch ever since. Her press team Liz and Maryan always sends me an invite to see Amy’s newest collection. Amy is the owner of Tibi(www.tibi.com) and she showed her resort 09/10 collection in South Beach Mercedes Benz Fashion Week at gorgeous Raleigh Hotel on July 16th.

When asked what was her inspiration for her collection she was quoted as saying,”It reminds you of The Island of Bali”. She then went on to say,think Christy Turlington in a chic episode of Baywatch”. Now thats hott! I loved every piece that came down that darn runway, especially the beach cover up in pink,Im going to look for that Amy lol. The jumpsuits and asymmetrical style dresses were the business,loved that!
Models in Tibi (getty images)
I loved how the runway was set up, all white and the Tibi goody bags were very nicely designed. I just so happened to be seated by Amy’s hubby Frank and their two beautiful boys. They were awesome and the littliest one was so shy but adorable. If I could still fit into a two piece, I would love to buy several of her suits,they were very sexy and brightly colored and looked great coming down the runway. The models she picked were fun and great looking too.

I got to go behind the scenes and see all the chaos which I love. The models were getting all glammed up, makeup was fierce and loved their wavy and wet hairdos. The shoes they wore were very nice in a gold color,loved those. Wow maybe in my next lifetime I can be a model(Dear God, please make me taller & thinner next time around lol).
