Les Benjamins Launches New Resort 2024 Collection, ‘Mediterranean Summer Breeze’
Luxury streetwear label Les Benjamins, based in Istanbul, introduces its latest Resort 24 collection, drawing inspiration from the maritime elegance and enduring charm of Bodrum, the globally renowned Turkish summer haven. Named “Mediterranean Summer Breeze”, the collection captures the essence of the beautiful Mediterranean Sea, the warm summer air, and the coastal lifestyle. Featuring an earthy color palette and bohemian designs, it spans swimwear and resort attire.
Bodrum, also known as the Turkish Riviera, attracts a stylish and creative crowd from around the world each summer, and the Les Benjamins collection encapsulates the distinctive Bodrum atmosphere. The collection, including womenswear, menswear, and swimwear, celebrates Bodrum's vibrant hues: the blues of the sea, browns of the mountains, greens of the pine forests, oranges of citrus groves, pink Aegean sunsets, and eternal yellow sunshine. Bold colors and nature-inspired prints pay homage to Bodrum's iconic flora, while Sargı Nakış embroidery and tassel designs evoke the spirit of Bodrum's seventies origins.
The womenswear collection is designed for versatility, transitioning seamlessly from beach and boat to daytime outings and evening events. It features slinky gowns, midi skirts, summer dresses, floating pants, beach cover-ups, and mini shorts and skirts paired with cropped tops. Key pieces include a halter-neck maxi dress with a coordinating skirt and palazzo pants, a striking floral-print dress with a cut-out waist, and an elegant black two-piece ensemble comprising a bra-top and sarong. Swimwear offerings include single-color and patterned two-pieces, as well as creative one-pieces with low-cut backs, adorned with colorful prints inspired by Bodrum's sunsets and Turkish embroidery.
In the men's collection, Les Benjamins' signature elevated streetwear takes center stage. Designed to cover all summer occasions, it features long and short-sleeved shirts, trousers, shorts, t-shirts, co-ords, and various lengths of swimming trunks. Hero pieces include a sleek black open-button shirt paired with trousers, a relaxed yet sophisticated two-piece set with intricate detailing, and vibrant shirt-short co-ords in nautical and floral prints. Fans of Les Benjamins will appreciate the brand's signature printed t-shirts and Turkish Sargı Nakış-inspired details.
