LUX* Resorts and Hotels have announced the launch of an exciting new capsule collection of swim shorts for men by refined British swimwear brand Orlebar Brown.
Inspired by LUX*’s Indian Ocean resorts, the collection consists of three designs, each with striking imagery including LUX* South Ari Atoll in the Maldives and LUX* Belle Mare in Mauritius. Perfectly capturing the beauty of island life, the designs reflect LUX*’s vision of a ‘lighter, brighter’ holiday experience featuring vibrant vistas, turquoise waters and spectacular sunsets.
Adam Brown, Founder of Orlebar Brown said: “LUX* Resorts and Hotels are a natural setting for Orlebar Brown with many of our customers posting images through our #OBsAroundTheWorld enjoying their vacations in these extraordinary resorts. LUX*’s emphasis on celebration and exceptional experiences resonated with our brand DNA here at Orlebar Brown, and we couldn’t be more pleased to launch this exclusive collection along with a series of pop ups at LUX* resorts in Mauritius and Maldives.”
The Orlebar Brown capsule collection for LUX* launches in December and will be available exclusively from a pop-up shop at LUX* South Ari Atoll in the Maldives. LUX* Belle Mare and LUX* Grand Gaube in Mauritius will also host similar pop-ups.
Paul Jones, CEO of LUX* Resorts and Hotels, comments: “Orlebar Brown is a brand I’ve long admired; the designs are fashionable yet fun and there’s a great synergy with LUX*’s ‘lighter, brighter’ concept. We are hugely excited to be launching this capsule collection together. The three pop-up boutiques will provide our guests with unique access to a bespoke range of shorts which should hopefully remind them of their holiday experience with LUX*.”
LUX* runs the LUX* South Ari Atoll resort in the Maldives.
Cutting-edge designer villas and world-class dining can be found only a 30-minute seaplane flight away from the main Velana International Airport, making LUX* South Ari Atoll one of the most exciting resorts in the Maldives.
With 187 private villas dotted at the water’s edge along four kilometres of powder fine beach or perched on stilts above a crystal clear lagoon, these spacious pavilions and villas bring an entirely original vibe of coastal, beach house chic to the Maldives.
Excellent eating and drinking is always a cut above the rest at LUX*, and at LUX* South Ari Atoll, there is authentic South East Asian street food in the Maldives’ only over-the-water gourmet night market and world-class Chinese cuisine at East, along with the Japanese restaurant Umami, which offers live teppanyaki and dazzling selection of sakés.
While the resort has a PADI-certified dive centre, two infinity pools, a floodlit tennis court, a fitness centre and a renowned spa which hosts a wellness concierge and a menu of indulgent treatments, what sets the property apart from its neighbours are surprises, or better known as #ReasonstogoLUX. Designed to create lasting memories for guests, these ‘reasons’ can range from island-roasted coffee in Café LUX* to impromptu movie screenings at cinema paradise and the chance to hang your wishes on the Tree of Wishes.
LUX* has recently announced the opening of its second resort in the Maldives early next year.
Named LUX* North Male Atoll and located on the six hectare picnic island of Olhahali, the new resort features contemporary architecture that is unique for the Indian Ocean, including private terraces, rooftop lounges, outdoor decks, private gardens and 13m private pools.
