Jimmy Buffettâs Margaritaville brand â which already offers home decor, beachwear and accessories â will extend its reach to a new, and rather obvious, category for resort: womenâs swimwear.
Cathy Hernandez, the companyâs newly-appointed vice president of swimwear who previously spent 11 years developing Tommy Bahamaâs swim business, said she was surprised to find that Margaritaville did not yet offer womenâs swimsuits. âIt was a major success story waiting to happen,â she told WWD. Hernandez met with Joe Laurita, the chief executive officer of Margaritavilleâs apparel business, to strategize the collection, which aims to provide swimwear and sportswear-inspired cover-ups. âThe inspiration behind Margaritaville Swim is the yearning for an island adventure, a leisurely escape â Margaritaville as a feeling, not a place,â Hernandez said. âFun and humor also play a role in what we create.â
