Reversible swimsuit: the complete guide to everything you need to know

" Two styles, one swimsuit: the promise of reversible. "

The reversible swimsuit has become a clear favorite in recent seasons for those who like to vary their styles without multiplying their purchases. But concretely, how does it work, and why choose a reversible model rather than a classic swimsuit? We explain everything.

What is a reversible swimsuit?

As its name suggests, a reversible swimsuit can be worn on both sides: each piece thus offers two different colors or finishes in one single garment. At PINUA, each model comes in three color duos — "Arrosa & Baso", "Argi & Zeru" and "Izar & Duna" — inspired by the Atlantic coast and Basque culture.

Why choose a reversible swimsuit?

Two looks, one piece. It's the equivalent of two swimsuits for the price of one, taking up half the space in your suitcase.

More responsible fashion. Fewer pieces produced and purchased, for a more sustainable beach wardrobe.

True style freedom. Want a subtle look in the morning and a more colorful one in the afternoon? Just flip the swimsuit inside out.

How to wear your reversible swimsuit well?

No strict rules: your mood of the day decides. The plain side for a refined look during the week, the colorful side for a more assertive outing. Our Ferret and Pyla tops are particularly well suited to this play of style layering.

How to care for a reversible swimsuit?

To preserve both sides longer: hand wash in cold water, never tumble dry, and lay flat to dry. Our OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified Italian fabrics are resistant to chlorine and sunscreens, but careful maintenance further prolongs their vibrancy.
