We’re going back to back Sauvage Swimwear here at Bikini of the Week. But while last week saw us look at one of last year’s quiet achievers, the sexy black bikini Chains, this week we’re looking at a hot new swimsuit number from the 2009 Sauvage Swimwear range, Chocolate Suede.
Chocolate Suede: the name alone is sexy. But it’s the sight of this bikini that will truly have you drooling. Similarly to Chains, Chocolate Suede comes decked in metal detailing, but here the look is hot and heavy with thick, gold link chains. Luckily, the quality of the detailing, as with all Sauvage swimsuits, is premium, so while the chains are durable and sturdy, they’re also lightweight and comfortable - a must for any bikini. In fact, the detailing on the bikini bottoms also includes an additional piece of material, added for comfort and support.
For me, the gold link chain detailing spells sophistication - with a touch of rock ‘n’ roll flair! Beach Bunny Swimwear is very good at this look, but with Chocolate Suede, Sauvage Swimwear is certainly giving them a run for their swimsuit money! This season, we’re going to be seeing a lot of chocolate browns - not just from Sauvage, but from all the major boutique designer swimwear labels. The Chocolate Suede by Sauvage however, would have to be the quintessential example. I might have said this simply because I love the Sauvage version. However, having already seen many, if not all, of the other designer swimwear collections, I mean it definitively.
More than a chocolate brown, the Chocolate Suede is toned and textured, giving the bikini fabric character and body. Also, at a distance, the visual appeal of the bikini is different to what it is up close, again adding character and unique charm to the swimsuit.
Another added benefit of the brown bikini is its ability to look clean longer and its difficulty to stain. I for one tend to dirty my clothes easily and while I’m an absolute fan of white bikinis, it’s refreshing not to have to worry about it so much.
The Chocolate Suede bikini by Sauavge comes in a halter style top that includes removable pads for extra support and string ties at the neck and back. The pads are useful also for a more flattering look at the bust. The bikini bottoms are low rise at the front, but provide moderate coverage at the front. Personally, I love the degree of coverage you’ll find in most Sauvage bikinis - not too little, but also, not too much.
Chocolate Suede is pretty much hot off the factory floor, as are all the new designer swimsuits by Sauvage. But whether you’re after a beautiful number from last year’s swimwear season, or ready for something new from this year’s range, Sauvage is always a safe yet seriously stunning option.
Well we certainly do and we are sure you will to! Azura Swimwear is proud to announce that we will be soon be stocking this year’s beautiful designer swimwear collection from Nicolita swimwear.
This is the first time Azura Swimwear will have stocked Nicolita swimwear, as well as being the first new designer swimwear range that we have introduced since we launched early this year. So undoubtedly, this is an exciting time for us here! We’ve had our eye on Nicolita for some time now, but when we caught up with the Nicolita girls after this year’s designer swimwear tradeshows and saw their incredible 2009 swimwear range, we just couldn’t pass up the offer to sell them here at Azura Swimwear.
We’ll be going through the 2009 Nicolita swimwear range with you step-by-step (I, for one, want to savour the opportunity to wax poetic over their gorgeous designer swimsuits!) when they arrive. But for a quick look and for those who aren’t familiar with this incredible designer swimwear label, Nicolita Swimwear harks from California, USA and is the creation of talented swimwear designer Nicole Sainz. Sainz’s heritage, a mix of Cuban-American, is all to clear in her latin-infused swimwear range with designer swimsuits that are incredibly sexy, yet oh so womanly - in only the way the Latinas and Mediterraneans can do it! Even the bikini names are exotic with inspiring names like Limonada, Tuscan Treat and Ciao Bella… certainly paints a vivid and beautiful picture doesn’t it!
We take the greatest care in selecting which designer swimwear labels make it into our store and with Nicolita, we have no doubt that she’ll be right at home here at Azura. The 2009 Nicolita Swimwear range will be arriving at Azura Swimwear shortly, so make sure to stay tuned. Of course, if you’re a subscriber, we’ll be sending you an email as soon as they get in. If you’re not a subscriber, but would like to join our mailing list, simply click here and fill in your details.
Until then, we wait as patiently as you for the sexy Nicolita to arrive… Not long now!
It seems we’re always excited here at Azura Swimwear. And really, who can blame us? We’re surrounded by gorgeous swimsuits year round and get the chance to connect with customers from around the world on a daily basis. But this week, we’re particularly excited! And with very good reason. Azura Swimwear is proud to introduce the new season Sauvage Swimwear collection, just released onto the swimwear market.
We got our first glimpse of the 2009 Sauvage Swimwear range earlier in the year when Sauvage swimwear designer Elizabeth Southwood previewed the range for fashion editors and swimwear buyers (such as ourselves) at different fashion shows and trade exhibitions across the country. But it is only now that these sexy designer swimsuits have become available to the public and Azura Swimwear is proud to be one of the first to have them in stock, bringing them direct to you so you can get your hands (and your bodies!) into these beautiful new swimsuit designs as soon as possible.
The 2009 Sauvage Swimwear collection, needless to say, is simply incredible. Year in year out, Southwood never fails to produce designer swimwear collections that stun and amaze and this year is definitely no different.
We don’t have favorites here at Azura Swimwear - we only carry brands that we love - so it’s not fair to say that Sauvage Swimwear is our favorite swimwear range. But, there really is something unique and special about Sauvage that sets it apart from the crowd.
Perhaps it is the beautiful detailing you’ll find on all of the Sauvage swimsuits - the 2009 Sauvage bikini Indian Princess is a prime example of this, studded in oriental inspired jewels. If you think this swimsuit looks good in the picture, wait till you see it in real life.
Or perhaps it is the ease with which Sauvage swimsuits fuses elegance with a point of difference - if you’re not familiar with Sauvage, check out one of this year’s most beautiful Sauvage swimsuits, Caviar, a stunning example of elegance paired with mystery, or the Chocolate Suede bikini, a sophisticated two piece swimsuit bringing together class and ease.
Personally, I love the raw scream of the jungle you’ll find in so many of Sauvage’s swimsuits - the swimsuits are sexy, but the inspiration is taken from the wild, giving them a particular kind of appeal. In fact, did you know that the word ‘sauvage’ actually mean wild in French? In the 2009 Sauvage Swimwear collection, the best example of this jungle beat is the Snake Skin bikini. Made from a gorgeous snakeskin print, taken straight from the wild, and lined with gold sequin trim, this designer swimsuit it pretty hard to beat.
As always here at Azura Swimwear, we only select the best of the best - the best swimwear designers and their best designer swimsuits. This year is no different, and as we start to introduce the 2009 women’s swimwear collections of our other designers (and get ready, we’ll be introducing some amazing new designers shortly), rest assured your happy shopping experience is in our expert hands.
So if Sauvage Swimwear seems up your alley, then don’t wait -start shopping now!
It’s that time of year again - designer swimwear sale season! Yes, that’s right. Before we say goodbye to summer and usher in the next year’s range to come, there’s definitely one more season to get excited about… sale season.
So just a quick note to let you know that Azura Swimwear will be welcoming the season in style and offering you discount designer swimwear at 25% off the original price. In fact, each and every swimsuit in our designer swimwear collection will have a designer swimwear sale price tag, and all at up to 25% off.
Designer swimwear sale time is perfect for picking up a couple of extra swimsuits to add to your collection, particularly those with timeless appeal. Our recommendations for this year’s collection would be the Jade Mountain 2 and Cobalt Crystal by Sauvage Swimwear, Spellbound by Beach Bunny Swimwear and the Kenya by Red Carter - each of these designer swimsuits have a unique quality and indefinable elegance that will see them lasting through the years.
Signature cut swimsuits are also great to grab a hold of during sale season - these women’s swimsuits never go out of style and many of the swimwear designers continue them season upon season. Buy them now and you’ll enjoy a timeless designer swimsuit for a discount designer swimwear price.
But designer swimwear sale season also offers the chance to pick up that swimsuit you’d been eyeing off all season, but for some reason or another, never got the chance to buy. Before your swimsuit walks out the door forever, here’s your last opportunity to make it yours, and even better, at just a fraction of the cost.
So with that we leave you to enjoy designer swimwear sale season… who ever said that the end of summer was sad?!
After an amazing three days (well, we must admit we stayed on for a couple more days… it was Vegas after all!) checking out next year’s incredible lineup of designer swimsuits, we’re glad to be back home where it’s quiet and we can reflect upon all the beautiful new fashion swimsuits we saw.
Undeniably, attending these designer swimwear tradeshows each year, such as MAGIC, CURVE NV and PROJECT, is a lot of fun. But to us, it’s a lot more than just fun and games. More than anything, attending these swimwear tradeshows gives the team here at Azura Swimwear the opportunity to touch base with the industry - whether liasing with swimwear designers and their sales reps, or seeing what’s going on in the world of fashion on a whole.
While we definitely keep up with other industry members throughout the year, it’s great to meet face to face, and catch up in person with the people you deal with on the phone on a near daily basis.
Seeing all the designers and their new swimwear collections in one place is also of incredible value. (more…)
