Being blessed with some of the most idyllic coats in the world, we take our swimwear seriously Down Under.
And with the summer season well upon us, our minds—and shopping carts—are once again overflowing with ideas for beachwear. But instead of flicking through of-the-moment trends and reaching for impractical fits that will expire in our drawers in the seasons to come, this year we’re looking to take a capsule approach to our swimwear, investing in pieces that we’ll love forever.
Luckily, our favourite dress label Shona Joy is making a splash with a foray into swimwear—and the designs are as refined and flattering as the designer’s formal and ready-to-wear.
After taking the leap into bridal back in 2019, the brand is now diving into swimwear.
From selling hand-painted designs at Bondi Beach to being a household name two decades on, Shona Joy creates modern pieces designed to transcend the trend cycle and last for years to come.
And now the brand that has become a go-to for all occassionwear is catering for our swimwear needs, too.
With a colour palette derived from travels around the world, Shona Joy’s Resort collection, Tropico, epitomises the Australian sensibility with its understated elegance. Boasting complimentary cut-outs and romantic florals in hues that are easy to mix-and-match, the range is made for keeps.
Not only does the range tick all of our aesthetic boxes, but each piece is responsibly designed in ECONYL® nylon, made from waste that would otherwise pollute the Earth.
The pieces we’re shopping? The Manhatten Cross Front Bandeau Top and matching Negroni Square Sarong are instant loves, along with the Daiquiri Lace-front Onepiece and Caipiroska High-Rise Ruched Bottoms.
