\u00a0These suits totally Rock and are the creation of Beth Gerharts, a Miami native and Honors Graduate of the International Fine Arts College in Downtown Miami.<\/p>\n

\u00a0After Graduating Beth landed some killer\u00a0gigs \u201cas a freelance stylist with Giorgio Armani and Neiman Marcus and as a freelance writer for the Fashion Times newspaper. She was later hired at On Gossamer lingerie. But Beth wanted more. She wanted to create, she wanted to shine,\u00a0so she tried what she knew\u2026lingerie\u201d. Which begins the story of how Betty Bangs was born.<\/p>\n

\"\"Beginning as \u201ca playful line beautifully detailed, with a 50\u2019s pin-up feel to it. She packed up the collection and in 2005 headed to Vegas to attend a couple of trade shows. The response was phenomenal, but it wasn\u2019t long before she found out she was over her head in production issues, not to mention funding. So it was back to the drawing board\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith leftover fabric from the original line, Beth started making bikinis and wearing them to the Sunday boat parties off the coast of Miami at Elliot Key. Needless to say, they were a hit. By now she had a reputation to uphold but with limited funds for fabric, she cut a bikini from a leftover promotional Betty Bangs t-shirt to wear the following week and everybody WENT CRAZY over it!\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cThe next week she cut an AC\/DC tee, made it into a hot little bikini and blinged it out with Swarovski\u00ae crystals. It was then she knew she was on to something\u2026and with that the summer of \u201806 was hers. She had managed to created somewhat of a following. She packed up some samples and headed to South Beach\u201d.<\/p>\n

Since then, Beth is taking no prisoners Touring the country and picking up loyal followers, me being one of them.\"\"<\/p>\n
