Making its runway debut at PARAISO, Salty Mermaid is ready to make a statement. The brand introduces its Mob Wife Collection—an unapologetically glamorous line that channels bold femininity, rich textures, and a fearless approach to design. This season, founder Sarah Jon Porreca-Swenson leans into drama and allure, infusing the collection with gold beading, tortoise prints, and slick wet-look fabrics that exude power and sensuality.

But there’s substance behind the shine. Salty Mermaid is committed to sustainability, repurposing fabric scraps into accessories and eliminating poly bags through reusable swim bags. The collection reflects that ethos with recycled materials, limited-edition drops, and thoughtful craftsmanship throughout.

The show transitions from high-octane glamour into the dreamier Under the Sea capsule, where soft crochet, seashell-inspired textures, and sun-washed hues offer a more ethereal, introspective take on coastal beauty. Salty Mermaid’s first appearance at PARAISO promises to be more than a debut—it’s a manifesto of empowerment, innovation, and conscious creativity.

Expect flowing kaftans, breezy co-ords, and sculpted swimwear crafted from organic fibers, silk chiffon, cotton voile, and recycled lycra.

“My collections are always rooted in freedom, in interpreting silence and stillness as something full of life.”

Sigal Cohen Wolkowiez, Founder of SIGAL

With "Mirage," SIGAL offers more than garments—it delivers a sensorial escape, where art, femininity, and sustainability converge.
