ALBA Resortwear, a brand born in sunny Malta, has become a global sensation in luxury resort fashion. Designed with the Mediterranean’s vibrant spirit, ALBA redefines how we experience summer. From its kaftans to bold swimwear, each piece embodies effortless elegance and celebrates the carefree essence of sunny getaways.

Rooted in the belief that “summer is a state of mind,” ALBA’s collections are inspired by the world’s most beautiful locales, from the serene beaches of Bali to the lively streets of Capri. Featuring exotic prints, vibrant colours, and flowing materials, these timeless designs are made to be cherished and worn for years, blending Maltese heritage with global allure.

A Global Journey Starting in Malta

What started as a small hobby amongst friends in Malta has flourished into an international luxury brand. ALBA Resortwear is now showcased in over 20 five-star resorts across the Maldives, Mauritius, and Seychelles. Prestigious locations such as the Four Seasons Landaa Giravaru, Raffles Maldives, and JW Marriott Mauritius proudly stock ALBA’s creations, introducing travelers to the artistry and charm of Maltese design.

Chelcie, the founder of ALBA, began this remarkable journey when her self-designed kaftan caught the attention of a hotel manager during her visit to the Maldives. This serendipitous moment led to a trial collection in four resorts, and within a year, ALBA had expanded to over 20 luxurious destinations. Embracing its roots, the brand recently introduced the tagline: “Designed in Sunny Malta… Crafted for Tropical Paradises.”

The Heart of Craftsmanship

ALBA’s pieces are brought to life by hand-picked seamstresses from around the world, combining global craftsmanship with Maltese-inspired designs. Locally, the brand has found support through boutique partnerships with So Ellie in San Ġwann and the Radisson Golden Sands, where curated collections bring a slice of tropical elegance to Malta’s shores.

The journey doesn’t stop there. ALBA’s online store caters to the Maltese market, and a limited collection is set to launch for summer 2025, ensuring that fans of the brand have fresh, vibrant designs to look forward to.

Expanding Horizons

As ALBA’s story unfolds, the brand is preparing for further expansion, with five additional luxury resort locations in the Maldives planned for early 2025. Chelcie envisions continued growth in other summer destinations, bringing the spirit of Malta to the world’s most beautiful escapes.

From its humble beginnings in Malta to its global acclaim, ALBA Resortwear is a testament to passion, creativity, and the enduring allure of summer. More than a clothing line, ALBA invites wearers to embrace a lifestyle of confidence, beauty, and unforgettable memories.

For those who seek to elevate their summer wardrobe, ALBA Resortwear offers a piece of Malta’s sunny charm, designed to transport you to paradise.
