SwimLab x WGSN presents the 2025 Selected Brands
Palmeri
Designer- Ashley Arce
Palmeri is a sustainable swimwear brand formed from a deep love for the ocean, movement, and the lifestyle that surrounds it. Founded by a surfer, free diver, and lifelong island dweller with years spent playing competitive sand volleyball, Palmeri was created out of a desire for swimwear that could move seamlessly from surf to sea to resort, combining function, comfort, and style. Designed in Texas and handmade in Colombia, each piece reflects a thoughtful balance of performance and ease. Palmeri offers two distinct fits: one for active lifestyles that stay put during every wave, spike, or dive, and one for those who want supportive swimwear without a too-tight feel.
Lola Baia
Designers- Georgia and Daisy
Lola Baia is a British luxury swimwear brand blending sexy nostalgia, sustainability, and timeless style. Inspired by the iconic glamour of the 1960s, our bikinis and signature swim skirts are designed for the modern muse - flattering, feminine, and effortlessly chic. Ethically made in Portugal using 100% sustainable fabrics, each piece is released in limited drops and crafted with quality, versatility, and individuality in mind.
