Despi Swimwear: One to Watch
Remember the girl from Ipanema? She’s Brazilian, beautiful and bikini-clad. And we finally found her at the Miami Swim Show in Miami Beach sporting a striking Despi, tunnel bandeau bikini top with an adorable boy short bikini bottom in tangerine and lavender print.
How can you not love this drop-dead gorgeous two piece? Designed by Despina Filios who makes her swimwear in Rio de Janeiro, Despi was recently named “the new face of beach fashion” by the Brazilian Press. And with stand-out swimsuits like this one, it’s hardly any wonder.
We were excited by what we saw. The Despi 2009 collection captures the spirit and soul of Brazil in its many pieces. We saw bold hues with playful polka dots, strong solids mixed with retro stripes and mod prints, carnival-themed colors with just enough glitter to glam it up, frilly tops and skirtinis and rectangular-shaped and oval hardware detail adorning bikini bottoms and tops.
