Swim Designer Swimwear

Swim, by the people who brought us Nothing But Water, opened its flagship store at Power Plant Mall, Rockwell, Makati. Swim carries Australian brands like Vix, Sofia, Hermanny and Baku. Sizes range from 4 to 22, with cup sizes from A to DD.

With this one-stop boutique offering bikinis, one-piece suits, cover ups and even accessories, our summer is definitely not over.


Vix by Paula Hermanny

With a celebrity roster of fans that includes Jennifer Aniston, Denise Richards, Eva Langoria, and Heidi Klum, VIX is one of the most sought after swim and resort labels for the sexiest women in the world. VIX has been featured in several major publications including Vogue, Elle, InStyle, People, and Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit Edition.

Sofia for the younger beach-goers (15-25)


Some tops are padded, while some are not, depending on the style. This particular style has green beads sewn at the edges of the details. Designs come is different cuts to suit your own body type. And because most of their swimwear are sold separately, you can playfully mix and match to your liking.

Baku


Unlike the other brands sold in Swim, Baku is also sold at branches of Nothing But Water. The materials used are extremely commendable, and of course, needless to say, I just love the fit of their bikinis.

Hermanny


Okay, I must admit, when I stepped into this store, I saw the most expensive one-piece cut-out suit I have ever seen in the Philippines. I know bikinis are sold internationally well over $150. Especially designer brands like Juicy Couture, Liz Claiborne, etc. but this particular design (see picture above) cost, well, above P10,000. The gold detail is unbelievably amazing, the pads are well placed, and my raving goes on and on. But darn, P10,000 for a one-piece cut-out? Boohoo.

Thank God not all their swimwear are priced like that! The price you can get your matching bikini (still a little expensive but soooo worth it) on the average is, I'd say, around P5000.

Visit their store now so you'd know just why its pricey. I bet you're gonna purchase your pair.
