As seen in the recent Setai Miami fashion show, the swimsuits come in a variety of neutral shades and other colors, featuring multiple shapes to flatter a variety of different sizes. But the best part is that the swimsuits are not only beautiful, but are made of sustainable and recycled materials, such as Repreve Nylon and Eco Cell Foam, purchased from long term fabric suppliers as part of the company's Aqua Green initiative.
