MAIO Swim by Monica Wise

Introducing MAIO Swim by Monica Wise: a new designer swimwear brand from the woman behindL Space Swimwear! MAIO's debut 2013 collection showcases an impressive lineup of one-pieces and high-waist bikinis, perfect for today's chic sophisticate. If you love L Space's signature look and luxurious feel, but have been searching for something a bit more modest, MAIO Swim has your name written all over it!

Designer Monica Wise has always had a passion for one-piece swimsuits, and when she noticed that the market was void of stylish, high-quality maillots, she knew she just had to fill it. In the swimwear industry, your typical one-piece styles tend to fall at either end of the spectrum-they're either matronly and unflattering or super skimpy and overly sexy. Designed for the 30-45 female demographic, MAIO Swim by Monica Wise successfully bridges the gap with its modest yet stylish one-piece swimsuits with a chic, sophisticated twist.

The debut new line is designed for the L*SPACE girl who has outgrown those skimpy, low-rise cuts. "She's grown up, and I wanted to grow with her," says designer Monica Wise. And with just one look at MAIO Swim, you can definitely see the similarities between the two lines. Above all, MAIO Swim is ultra-feminine and modern with a splash of vintage, paying homage to the classic Esther Williams films of the 1950s. The design team implements classic tailoring paired with customized accents and detailing. Think textured fabrics, corset-inspired details, subtle hardware, ruched detailing and more. In terms of silhouette, the modest swimwear line features sophisticated cuts matched with sophisticated prints and color palettes. Think retro-inspired suits, structured strapless maillots and high-waist bikinis. Without a doubt, MAIO Swim by Monica Wise is changing the way women everywhere think about modest swimwear.
