Take a Walk on the Wild Side
Woman-owned. Sustainable. Stylish. A triple threat in any industry. These characteristics serve as a description of the company Avid Swim- a luxury swimwear brand that is committed to designing sustainable and eco-friendly products. Their latest project titled “The Wild Escape” includes some of their most exciting and exotic styles to date.
Owner Gionna Nicole has mastered the combination of elegance and simplicity in her designs. Each piece is crafted with sustainable fabric, low impact dyes, heart, and soul. Avid Swim’s products are especially unique because of the effort being made during their production to reduce the carbon footprint. In addition, each piece is sold in a reusable bag in contribution to the effort of keeping plastic out of our oceans. The ability to mix and match different pieces also offers an extended lifestyle for every product.
Specifically, “The Wild Escape” collection allows customers to, as they say, take a walk on the wild side. Featuring classic animal prints such as leopard and zebra, leaf and floral inspired prints, these items are sure to give off a tropical summer vibe. These new designs are offered in classic bikini silhouettes such as triangle tops and string bottoms, as well as one pieces and cover ups. Similar to most items sold by Avid Swim, the items featured in The Wild Escape collection are interchangeable, offering a wide variety of combinations, making each one uniquely yours.
Avid Swim not only accomplishes luxury, sustainability, and being economically friendly, the brand also stands for inclusivity. The male and female models and ambassadors the brand has chosen to represent them are all uniquely beautiful, and do not exemplify just one single ethnicity or nationality. Different skin tones, different body shapes and curves, but all on behalf of one brand and one cohesive message.
If you’re looking for your new go-to swimwear spot, this is it. Avid Swim offers the whole package and then some.

At the rise of Covid-19 many of us first questioned the timeline of fashion week and would we see the regular calendar continue - the question weighed over many of us for months! It was refreshing to see design houses and designers across the globe take advantage of the uncertainty and plow into production mode - thus my interest in Jerri Reid New York - The Black Designer based in Brooklyn New York wow’d instagram with his latest collection paying homage to the Black Is King film which debuted earlier this year in July. I was taken aback at quick of a turn round the young designer produced and released his well crafted designs reflecting some of the films most memorable moments.
