The collection is sized from XS to Xl and includes a single-cutaway Demi maillot with a crossed halter neck, as well as bikini sets in the Bambi and Kauai styles, high-leg bottom with ruched design for and high-waisted briefs.
Elkaim revitalized the swim shapes with a range of whimsical designs, including cow, Figaro, and money-emblazoned suits, as well as scribbled “Crayola” floral, aqua Hawaiian, and painterly “hot take” designs, as well as solid black, white, and Fuschia solid hues. Each print is also featured on new matching ready-to-wear fashions.
