Miami Swim Week 2026: Where to Meet La Moda & Source Wholesale Swimwear & Resort Wear in Miami Beach

Buyers: La Moda Clothing exhibits at SwimShow, May 30 - June 1, 2026, at the Miami Beach Convention Center. We're debuting the 2026 Resort Collection — wholesale swimwear, beach cover-ups, kaftans, and resort dresses — for boutique retailers, resort shops, cruise-line buyers, and department-store sourcing teams. Minimum order $600. Ships from USA. If you're flying in for Cabana Show (May 30 – June 1, 2026), we'll schedule meeting with us as well— email info@lamodaclothings.com for a line sheet or booth appointment.

SwimShow 2026: When & Where to Find Us

  • Event: SwimShow (Miami Swim Week's flagship B2B trade show, produced by the Swimwear Association of Florida since 1982)
  • Dates: Saturday, May 30 – Monday, June 1, 2026
  • Venue: Miami Beach Convention Center, 1901 Convention Center Drive, Miami Beach, FL 33139
  • Who attends: Retail buyers, boutique owners, chain buyers, department stores, resort & hotel gift-shop buyers, e-commerce retailers, private-label sourcing teams (trade-only; not open to the public)
  • La Moda booth: [Booth # TBD — check back the week of May 25 or email us for the updated floor-plan location]

SwimShow is the single largest dedicated swimwear and resort-wear trade show in North America. If your boutique, resort shop, or multi-store group is building a summer line around swim, beach cover-ups, tropical dresses, kaftans, or vacation-ready sets, this is where you'll see the breadth of the 2026 season in three days.

What We're Debuting: The La Moda 2026 Resort Collection

The 2026 Resort Collection is the widest line we've ever brought to SwimShow. Highlights on the booth:

  • Wholesale swimwear — bikinis, one-piece suits, two-piece swim sets, plus coordinating cover-ups for easy merchandising in bathing-suit floor sets. Explore the full wholesale swimwear range.
  • Resort dresses & kaftans — maxi dresses, tropical prints, halter cuts, silk viscose for higher-price-point boutiques. See resort wear wholesale.
  • Beach & swim cover-ups — lace, crochet, kimono, kaftan, and tunic styles at the price points that sell through in resort shops. Browse wholesale cover-ups.
  • Vacation-shop sets — co-ord sets, jumpsuits, and rompers curated for cruise-line gift shops, hotel boutiques, and resort retailers in the Vacation Shop.

Every style in the booth ships from our U.S. warehouse. Minimum opening order: $300. Fastest-moving SKUs reorder in 48–72 hours.

In Miami for Cabana Show Too? Here's What You Should Know

Miami Swim Week 2026 actually runs across two back-to-back weekends this year, and many retail buyers stay in Miami Beach for both to maximize the sourcing trip:

  • Cabana Show (May edition): May 30 – June 1, 2026, in Miami Beach
  • SwimShow: May 30 – June 1, 2026, Miami Beach Convention Center

La Moda is exhibiting at SwimShow, not Cabana. But if your sourcing trip brings you in  for Cabana — or if you're already in Miami that week — we'll open the showroom and walk you through the 2026 line before the main show floor opens. For a private preview appointment between the two shows, email info@lamodaclothings.com with your dates.

This back-to-back schedule makes 2026 one of the most buyer-efficient Miami Swim Weeks in years: a single 10–12 day trip lets you compare resort-led curation at Cabana with the full swim and vacation-wear breadth at SwimShow.

Miami Swim Show vs. Cabana Show: A Buyer's Quick Comparison

Both shows are excellent — different lenses on the same market. If you're debating whether to attend one or both:

Criteria SwimShow Cabana Show
2026 dates May 30– June 1 May 30 – June 1
Location Miami Beach Convention Center Miami Beach
Scale Largest dedicated swimwear trade show in North America; hundreds of brands Curated contemporary resort-wear & swim; boutique-led brand mix
Best for Boutique, chain, department-store, and resort-shop buyers sourcing swim, beachwear, and resort dresses across price tiers Boutique buyers sourcing contemporary resort & lifestyle pieces
La Moda presence Exhibiting — booth # TBD Not exhibiting — private appointments available

Most experienced buyers attend both. If you can only pick one and swimwear + wholesale volume matter more than boutique curation, SwimShow is the stronger hit. If you're curating a small tight resort-wear story for a higher-end boutique, Cabana complements SwimShow well.

Plan Your Miami Swim Week Trip

A few practical notes from a supplier who's done this show for years:

  • Register early. SwimShow badges are free for qualified trade buyers but require credentialing (a business license, resale certificate, or retail website). Apply at swimshow.com. Cabana credentialing at cabanashow.com.
  • Stay near the Convention Center. Miami Beach hotels between 17th Street and Lincoln Road put you within a 10-minute walk of SwimShow. Book 6–8 weeks out — hotel rates spike Swim Week.
  • Allow two full days for SwimShow. One day isn't enough to comparison-shop swim, cover-ups, resort dresses, and accessories across the full show.
  • Come with a line plan. Buyers who arrive with a category sheet (e.g., "need 40 SKUs across bikinis, cover-ups, maxi dresses, MOQ ≤ $500, US-ship") close faster with more suppliers and return with a tighter, more profitable assortment.

How to Meet With La Moda

Three ways to connect:

  1. Book a booth appointment in advance. Email info@lamodaclothings.com with your preferred date/time at SwimShow. Pre-scheduled slots get first-look access to the 2026 Resort Collection and priority on hero styles.
  2. Request the line sheet. We'll send the current 2026 Resort line sheet as a PDF for pre-show review. Reply with your target categories and we'll flag the styles that match your buyer profile.
  3. Walk in. Booth staff will be available all three days. If you're crunched for time at the show, a 20-minute visit with a line sheet in hand is enough for a productive first meeting.

Whether you're a single-boutique owner sourcing your first summer line or a chain buyer managing a 200-door wholesale program, the La Moda team can scale the conversation to your program. We ship from the U.S., carry 900+ active styles, and reorder in days — not months.

See you in Miami Beach.
