Swimsuit Cover Ups and Beach Wraps

It covers the front and the back equally, goes on over a wet swimsuit in one movement, and dries fast. Then it keeps working long after you leave the water.

  • Impossible to get the size wrong

    One size, and it drapes from the shoulders instead of fitting the body. Nothing to measure, and nothing awkward to ask before you buy one for someone else.

  • One piece, five different looks

    Move the seam and the same scarf reads as a soft cowl, an asymmetric drape or a clean poncho. Loop it at the neck or leave it open on the shoulders and it is a scarf and a shawl too. A printed sheet showing all five comes with every order.

  • It works after the water too

    Over jeans for dinner, over shoulders when the evening turns, folded into a bag the rest of the time. A cover up that only covers up spends the holiday in the suitcase.

Why a poncho beats a sarong here

One movement and it is on

It goes over your head and stays there. No wet tie to fight with, no wrap that has to be held closed with one hand for the rest of the afternoon.

It covers the back as well as the front

Sarongs and open kaftans do not. This is a single panel with closed sides, so the coverage is equal the whole way round.

It goes on over a wet swimsuit

One size, so nothing pulls or sticks on the way down. And because it is a viscose and acrylic blend rather than a heavy knit, it dries quickly instead of holding the damp all afternoon.

Which piece gives the most coverage

The Lightweight Stripe. There is no separate plus size anywhere in the range, because everything is one size, but that piece is cut noticeably larger than the rest, which is what makes it the most covering option and the wrong choice for petite frames.

Rinse it the same day

Hand wash or machine wash cold on a delicate cycle, then lay flat to dry. Get the chlorine or the salt out before it dries in and the color will hold.

It is not only a cover up

The same piece is a plane layer, an evening layer and a festival layer. Moving the seam is what makes one garment do all of it.
