Aquazzura and JOALI Maldives have teamed up to unveil a tropical capsule collection that captures the essence of paradise. For fashion enthusiasts and lovers of luxury alike, this collaboration feels like a dream come true. The Italian brand, known for its exquisite craftsmanship, created a special limited-edition line featuring a chic sandal slide and a matching clutch. Both are available at the island’s boutique, Maison de JOALI. The collection effortlessly combines style with the serene beauty of the Maldives, captivating anyone with a love for fashion and the extraordinary.
Edgardo Osorio, the founder and creative director of Aquazzura, expressed his excitement, saying,
“I began diving in the Maldives a few years ago and was immediately captivated by the vibrant nature and stunning colors of its coral reefs. During a recent visit to JOALI Maldives, I was enchanted by the resort’s beautiful architecture and exceptional service and wellness rituals. As a devoted admirer of the sun and the sea, I collaborated with JOALI Maldives to create something special, culminating the exclusive launch of the first Aquazzura pop-up collection in the Maldives.”
A Fusion of Fashion and Island Inspiration
Osorio’s deep love for the sun and sea shines through in every piece of the collection, crafted in Italy. Each item intricately transports its wearer to the tranquil shores of JOALI. The white leather sandal slide and clutch feature a beaded motif that beautifully depicts the pristine blue waters and coconut palms, paying homage to the turquoise seas surrounding JOALI Maldives. The design feels fresh, casual, and undeniably elegant. It brings a bold, refined touch that invites a sense of adventure to the wearer.
Set on Muravandhoo Island in the northern Maldives, JOALI’s art-infused atmosphere complements Aquazzura’s vision perfectly. The clutch design draws inspiration from the resort’s iconic arrival jetty. This structure mirrors the ebb and flow of the ocean, welcoming guests into a world of enchantment. The collection seamlessly blends nature and luxury, much like JOALI Maldives with its architecture and wellness experiences.
The synergy between the two brands extends beyond fashion, as both share a philosophy of joy and connection to nature. Aquazzura’s signature ‘Aqua’ blue reflects the vibrant hues of JOALI’s surroundings. This collaboration celebrates their shared vision of infinite joy. The limited-edition pieces do more than just highlight fashion—they capture the magic of the Maldives.
Guests visiting JOALI Maldives can also explore the Aquazzura Casa collection for a limited time starting on December 20, 2024. The Secret Garden line showcases enchanting tableware with lush botanical designs, inspired by 18th-century Chinese porcelain. Michelin-starred Chef Theodor Falser crafted a special menu for the resort’s Bellinis restaurant to complement the collection. This fusion of tableware and cuisine creates a memorable dining experience that blends style with authentic Italian flavors.
With villas starting at $2,928 per night, JOALI Maldives offers an unparalleled escape where fashion, art, and luxury come together in perfect harmony.
