Luxury resortwear has been growing in popularity

An increasing number of brands offer beach-ready collections to their globe-trotting clientele. Take a page out of the celebrities' lookbooks and enjoy the sun and sand while wearing a creation from Nour by Adriana Bittencourt. The Brazilian style icon, who regularly rubs shoulders with fashion icons such as Karl Lagerfeld, Christian Louboutin, Marc Jacobs, Nicolas Ghesquiere and Diane von Furstenberg, recently visited Hong Kong to promote her lifestyle brand, which includes everything from beach couture to jewellery. The designer combines exotic designs and luxurious fabrics in her collections, and counts among her famous fans the likes of Gisele Bündchen, Kate Moss, Elle Macpherson and Madonna.
