5 Black-Owned Swimsuit Brands You Should Know - Page 3

If you’re quiet enough, you can hear the swimsuits buried in your bottom drawer screaming to come out and play. Summer is here, so it’s time to get your protective styles together and head to your nearest vacation destination. Whether you’re staying local or hopping on a plane for some tropical R&R, having some fly swimwear in your arsenal is as important as packing your sunscreen.  Swimwear has come a long way. Gone are the days of bland one-piece suits that are hardly size-inclusive. Today, designers have prioritized style, comfort, and extended sizing to broaden their reach. And when you add a little melanin to the equation, you get a Black-owned swimsuit brand that caters to a woman’s curves and overall flavor.

Finding a brand that offers variety is key because not everyone is comfortable in a bikini. Sometimes, all you need is a one-piece swimsuit that lifts and conceals in all the right places. But if you’re of the class of women who take their swimwear as seriously as they do their brunch fit, these brands will pique your interest.
