Miami Swim Show 2026 brought over a thousand retail buyers to town — boutique owners from Florida to New York, swim shops from Texas to California, hotel and resort retailers from Aruba to the Cayman Islands. Only a fraction made it to our booth. This guide is for everyone else.
Everything buyers ordered at the show is available to order online, year-round, at lamodaclothings.com — wholesale resort wear in 6-piece prepacks, designed and shipped from Miami since 2007. Here's how to buy for your store, whatever kind of store that is.
For Boutique Owners: Wholesale Dresses & Resort Wear That Reorders Itself
If you run a boutique, you're not searching for "clothes" — you're searching for wholesale dresses for boutiques, boutique wholesale vendors in the USA, and brands your customers can't price-check on Amazon. That's our lane: resort dresses, kaftans, and co-ord sets in prints we design ourselves, $8–$35 landed cost per unit in 6-piece prepacked size runs, retailing comfortably at keystone-plus.
For Swim & Bikini Shops: The Cover-Up Wall That Lifts Every Ticket
Swim specialty stores searching for wholesale swimwear vendors and wholesale beach cover-ups usually find two extremes: ultra-cheap import lots or $40-cost designer swim. We sit in the working middle — bikini sets, one-pieces, and the kimono cover-ups that turn a $40 swimsuit sale into a $90 basket. Matching swim-and-cover-up sets merchandise as complete looks and sell as two tickets.
For Surf Shops & Beach Lifestyle Stores
Surf and beach-town retailers tell us the same thing every show: the women's corner outsells its square footage when it's stocked right. Easy wholesale beach dresses, kaftan tops, and throw-on cover-ups in salt-air-friendly fabrics — pieces that work over a swimsuit at 10am and at the beach bar at 6pm — are the highest-turn women's stock a surf shop can carry.
For Hotel, Resort & Spa Gift Shops
From Las Vegas resorts to Aruba beach properties, hotel gift shop apparel suppliers are judged on one thing: does it sell to a guest who forgot to pack it? Poolside kaftans, kimono cover-ups, and one-size-friendly silhouettes are the forgot-to-pack category — high margin, low size-run risk, and they photograph beautifully in a lobby boutique. We supply resort and spa retail across Florida, Las Vegas, and the Caribbean, with prepacks sized for smaller floors.
For Caribbean & International Retailers: We're Built for You
Almost a quarter of the buyers at Miami Swim Show came from outside the US mainland — Puerto Rico, the Bahamas, Aruba, the Cayman Islands, the BVI, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Spain. If that's you, you already know the logistics secret: your freight forwarder is in Miami. So are we.
- Same-day or next-day delivery to your Miami freight forwarder or consolidator — your goods make this week's sailing or flight, not next month's.
- WhatsApp us directly: +1‑786‑445‑1752 — send your store name and what you carry; we'll send line sheets, prepack options, and a quote the same day.
- Hablamos español. Atendemos a tiendas de Puerto Rico, México, Colombia y todo el Caribe en su idioma — escríbanos por WhatsApp y le enviamos catálogos y precios al por mayor en español.
Why "Ships From Miami" Is a Number on Your P&L
Most wholesale resort wear ships from California. Look at what that costs you in days:
| Your store | From a California vendor | From La Moda (Miami) |
|---|---|---|
| Florida | 5–7 business days ground | 1–2 days |
| East Coast / Southeast | 4–6 days | 2–3 days |
| Caribbean (via Miami forwarder) | 5–7 days + missed sailings | Same / next day to your forwarder |
| Puerto Rico | 1–2 weeks total | Days, not weeks |
In season, a week of transit is a week of empty rack. Reordering from Miami means restocking within the season you're selling — no waste of time waiting on goods crossing the country from California.
