Attended the grand launch of Havaianas last Tuesday as they celebrate 50 colorful years of summer and style. The Make Your Own Havaianas night showcased a Brazilian feel as we witnessed the golden year of the flip flop brand that has become part of everyone’s life style.
Only the best things—and brands—age gracefully. Fifty colorful years have passed, yet Havaianas has remained the flip-flop of choice for most of the laid-back fashion lovers across the globe, as the brand has always stood for things that make them happy—summer, style and good memories.
This year, Havaianas will take you through a colorful and exciting tour back to where it all started. As the brand celebrates its 50th anniversary, Make Your Own Havaianas 2012 is geared to be the most special one yet. Havaianas will let you experience this through Make Your Own Havaianas’ exhibit. The Havaianas story is told through a blaze of color and fashion, showing how Havaianas paved the way for flip-flops to become a respected style statement the world over.
In true Havaianas fashion, self-expression has never been this chic with its thirteen special pins that speak volumes of its heritage. The happiness, 1962, Brasilipinas, soccer ball, and crown designs among others, all trace back to its roots in Brazil. Embellish these on soles that run the vibrant spectrum of the rainbow: from a pop rose, to an ice violet and lemon green, to the exclusive Make Your Own Havaianas estampas sole, these all remind you of the beautiful bursts of sunshine on a warm summer day.
Oh so pretty bright summery colors make it so hard to choose a pair!
