2014 SPRING COLLECTION

Meet Alina Villasante, founder and designer of Peace Love World, this oh so sweet & trendy Cuban is no stranger to fashion. In fact, many would call her Miami-based clothing company a growing sensation.

This past Tuesday, Alina and her team hosted a quaint brunch for a few Miami editors to preview her 2014 Summer & Fall designs — and the Flair Miami gals were there to chat with her and see the gorgeous collection.

How did PLW get started?
I started running a successful aviation business. I did that for a few years, but then I sold it to pursue my t-shirt idea. I wanted to create tees that make people smile, and really, I was just designing clothes that I wanted to wear — hoping other people would want to wear them too. I invested some money into it, and my girls helped me sell about $85,000 in just shirts. Our first store opened here in Miami in 2009 and its been growing since.

Tell us a little bit about the 2014 Spring & Summer line. We saw quite a few new pieces, even some vegan-leather/denim jackets?
Yes, I’m very excited to launch this collection. Since the brand itself  has already established a look and a feel that people recognize, we wanted to slowly add some more fashionable pieces and fabrics. You know, we didn’t want to change too quickly… Oh and I love the jean jacket and the dresses that can be worn from day to night.

Alina is a gem! And needless to say, she walks the talk. Her home screamed peace, love & happiness from throw pillows, to wall art, to her joyful personality…

The Summer collection was fun and vibrant. The staple light-weight tees and sweaters had statements like  I am HappySummer Love, Love Hippie, I am Eternal and my favorite, I love Sundays!

As for the 2014 Fall line, I cannot wait! The mix of fabrics is perfection.

I was instantly wooed by the beautiful white flowy dress and this uh-ma-zing pale pink vegan-leather jacket. <3
