Medina Swimwear

In response to the fashion industry’s impact on global ecology, Lourdes Medina launched her eponymous ethical and eco-conscious brand, Medina Swimwear. Integrating sustainable solutions into each step of the creative process, the womenswear label crafts its swimsuits entirely from ECONYL®, a regenerated polyamide fiber made from post-consumer materials removed from global waterways. Committed to a vision that extends beyond luxury swimsuits, Medina Swimwear donates a percentage of each collection’s sales to nonprofit organizations dedicated to protecting the oceans. Despite the more restricted range of sustainable resources, Medina Swimwear delivers a plethora of innovative suit styles from triangle bikinis and sporty surf tops pieced together in bold color blocks to vintage-inspired one-piece maillots with smocked panels and criss-crossing pin-buckle straps. Combining low-impact practices with luxurious design, Medina Swimwear takes a stylish step towards global conservation.
