Combining Spanish translations of “Sea, Sand, and Sun,” Marena y Sol is a lifestyle brand for the adventurous jet setter that uses clothing to accentuate her beauty, and provide a cursory glimpse into her personality.
Founded by Miriam Rahali in 2010, Marena y Sol is a collection that speaks high fashion and offers enchanting resort and beach wear. Supported by the likes of Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian, Marena y Sol's caftans became the most-wanted items for fashionistas across the world.
Marena y Sol is located in upscale boutiques and resorts, such as the Atlantis, One and Only, and Four Seasons.
The line is also available in selected Saks Fifth Avenue and Debenham's department stores, and was introduced to the Middle Eastern market through luxury lifestyle management group Copia.
Rahali said:“Marena y Sol is comprised of unique garments that exude effortless glamour. The vibrant colors and ethnic embellishments of the caftans, tunics, and ponchos attract the most stylish and sophisticated women who appreciate value in luxury.”
A firm believer that beauty is not confined to a predetermined size, shape, or color, Rahali developed Marena y Sol to celebrate the cultural and aesthetic diversity of women around the globe.
Currently, the line is comprised of tunics, caftans, ponchos, pareos, and swimwear, with plans of expanding to include footwear and accessories. The retail prices range from $78 to $348.
She said the brand is marketed as resort-wear, and is presented through the prism of a traveler, using fashion as a medium to offer a grand snapshot of our diverse and kaleidoscopic world.
Wherever she goes, the Marena y Sol woman treasures her travels and experiences.
The carefree, creative, and independent spirit of the brand is blended with sultry silhouettes to provide an eclectic look.
Her exposure and travel experiences have helped her to express herself through journeys and discoveries, to use fashion as a transmission of feelings.
The challenge with her collection has been to match elegant design with personal meaning.
She created Marena y Sol to celebrate the cultural and aesthetic diversity of women around the globe. Much like the woman who wears it, every piece is unique, and every piece tells a story.
Rahali said that the Marena y Sol team is gearing up for a trunk show at the Atlantis Bahamas. Style savvy shoppers who are looking for a deal can enjoy the Marena y Sol sale with great discounts and online shipping all on Gilt.com in March and May.
When asked how she thinks the brand fits couture in the Arab world, she said: “The caftan style is sophisticated, elegant, and effortlessly glamorous — three adjectives that aptly describe the Arab woman.”
Its modest and graceful silhouette left a lasting impression on her, and she used it as a starting point for Marena y Sol.
