Net-a-Porter Thinks Colombia Should Be Your Next Vacation Destination

If there’s one thing Colombian designer Silvia Tcherassi thinks people need to know about her home country, it’s that the people highly value happiness and the simple things in life. In honor of the popular South American destination, luxury e-retailer Net-a-Porter has launched the Colombian Collective, highlighting the best designers and inspired designs by the latin country. Alongside Barranquilla-born Tcherassi, who opened the door for a new wave of Colombian designers, Johanna Ortiz, Esteban Cortazar and Mercedes Salazar also joined in to design exclusive items that you’re going to want to take on your next sunny getaway.

Not only is Tcherassi a talented designer who injects Colombia’s signature bright colors and elegant style into her work—but she also runs two hotels in Cartagena (the most beautiful city in Colombia according to Tcherassi) where she can express her two passions, interior design and fashion. “To dress a room is like dressing a body,” Tcherassi told BAZAAR. Hotel Tcherassi would definitely set the scene for the perfect Instagram bait, featuring one of her floral dresses, or Joanna Ortiz’s swimsuits with ruffled sleeves.

We have no doubt you’ll want to book your next trip after you browse our favorite picks from Net-a-Porter’s festive Colombia Collective.
