Around the pool, at the beach, on a boat… on a wakeboard, surfboard or a paddle boat… right here or on an island across the world, it’s fun to have a ton of swimsuits! But more importantly, we love having swimwear that doesn’t let us down at the slightest hint of a wave!
To brighten up your hot days and nights, we would like to introduce a young local talent who is designing swimwear that fits you like a glove and that’s not made in China, but right here, at a factory in Montreal!
JUNE SWIMWEAR, DESIGNED BY JULIE MORIN-DUMAIS
ONE WITH YOUR BODY
Have you heard of the bootykini? It’s not a string, not a tanga and not a shorty… it’s a bottom that sits on your hips and that stylishly allows a cheeky glimpse of your cutest backside assets! Designed by Julie Morin-Dumais, a hot young swimwear designer, the bootykini and her simple and sporty two-piece suits from the June Swimwear collection literally stick to your body -- and are making a splash in the fashion world! Launched in 2010, June Swimwear got a head start with the help of a Mayor’s Foundation grant that allowed for the purchase of adequate equipment, and draws from an impressive array of seasoned mentors.
June Swimwear proposes really cool interchangeable pieces. We recommend the “X-back” top for all surfing or nautical sport fans. It offers extreme support without sacrificing sexiness. And for those who aren’t really in the market for a sporty suit, June also offers versatile swimwear that’s sure to turn heads. Beach attitude, surf, travel, escape, freedom and simplicity are all words intricately linked to June Swimwear’s DNA, a smaller brand with no big-brand envy.
