About the Designer
Popina Swimwear (formerly Poppi Swim & Sport) is inspired by the past and the great women who wore them. Born from a vacation to the Mexican Riviera, one of the first swim suit styles was created because I could not find a fashionable swimsuit that fit and flattered. I have always had a passion for styling of the past (40’s and 50’s in particular) and the swimwear was no exception. Reaching back to those eras, I created styles with the influence of days gone by but with the modern convenience of today’s fabric innovations and bathing suit construction. What’s great about Popina Swimwear is that you can be active or just relax on the beach in style. You will find Popina Swimwear somewhere between the Copacabana of the 40’s and Ipanema today.
