Windstar Cruises has joined forces with Stitch Lab to commemorate International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month in 2025.
The centerpiece of this collaboration is the International Women’s Cruise, sailing from March 1-8, 2025, on Windstar’s flagship Wind Surf. Departing from Philipsburg, St. Maarten, this Caribbean journey promises a unique blend of travel, art, culture and networking opportunities. Karina Rosendo, Emmy Award-winning Producer and Founder of Stitch Lab will be onboard alongside three prominent Latin American fashion designers.
Stitch Lab, the first U.S.-based talent incubator of its kind, promotes Latin American fashion creators. This aligns perfectly with Windstar’s commitment to supporting the arts and fostering creativity across its partnerships.
“We are thrilled to work with Stitch Lab to highlight the immense talent and artistry of female designers as we celebrate them on International Women’s Day,” said Janet Bava, Chief Commercial Officer of Windstar Cruises, in a press statement. “Stitch Lab aligns seamlessly with Windstar’s mission to support the arts across various disciplines, from culinary excellence through our 10-year collaboration with the James Beard Foundation to visual arts with Fountainhead Arts, and now fashion with female-owned Stitch Lab. By integrating these creative expressions into our travel experiences, we offer our guests more than a journey—we provide inspiration.”
Windstar’s Fashionable Cruise
The cruise will feature engaging onboard programming led by Rosendo and Alessandra Villegas, National Emmy Award winner of Esplendida TV. They’ll highlight women’s contributions to arts, fashion and wellness. Windstar’s Chief Commercial Officer Janet Bava and Vice President of Marketing Patricia Gonzalez will co-host, adding their industry expertise to the mix.
The collaboration extends beyond the sea. From April 3 to 6, 2025, Windstar will participate in Stitch Lab’s Spring Pop-Up in Miami’s Design District. Here, the cruise line will host a networking lunch for designers, influencers and media representatives, further solidifying its presence in the fashion and travel spheres.
