Top swimsuit fashion tips today? For her new Fall collection, it was a shimmery gold Lurex, which she spliced with black-and-white stripes on a pair of high-rise bottoms. Once the fabrics and designs are finalized, the swimsuits are produced in small batches in New Jersey, which means less waste, less energy, and less leftover stock. Since she obviously can’t reproduce the fabrics, each style is a limited edition; once it’s gone, it’s really gone. Giejo’s wallet-friendly prices, which range from $99 for bottoms to $195 for a maillot, make it easier to stock up on a new print every summer. Sabharwal recently launched a collaboration with Madewell and has several exciting projects in the works, including new technology that will allow her to experiment with printing on solid vintage fabrics. For women who want comfortable, sexy swimsuits with a sustainable backstory, Giejo is bound to become a go-to. You can shop the current collection now at shopgiejo.com.

You just can’t. So, because we’re firm believers that when you look good, you feel good (and if there’s anywhere you need to feel good, it’s the gym), we’ve put together five super cute and functional outfits, each geared toward a different activity. Click through to see it all, and get that activewear collection started—you’ll be surprised how motivated you’ll feel to break a sweat.
What is your personal favorite giejo style? It depends on what mood I’m in – if I want to really stand out, I would wear the butterfly bandeau with the high-waist bottom. If I’m feeling more sweet, I would wear the mid boy’s brief and the floral bra top. That is what I love about this collection: There’s such a variety of looks one can achieve from just a couple of pieces that no matter who you are that day, you can dress with confidence! What is the price range? Where will it be sold? The collection ranges from $76-$88 for bottoms and $96-$108 for tops and will be available at Dagny & Barstow as well as Creatures of Comfort in the city, Dear Fieldbinder in Brooklyn, Madison in California at their LA, Malibu and Beverly Hills locations, and Tenet in South Hampton, as well as my e-commerce site shopgiejo.com.
