Over the last few years Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Supermodel Chrissy Teigen has graced many top swimsuit runways and ad campaigns. So when this sexy bombshell created a capsule swimsuit collection for diNeila Brazil, everyone knew she'd be taking her swimsuit expertise to a whole new level. The inspiration for the collection is the sunshine, the sea and the sand of St. Barths, and Chrissy's own exotic Thai heritage. Bright neons paired with flirty abstract bohemian prints show the power of femininity. The DiNeila Brazil line is known for its fabulous fit, and Chrissy's sexy touch lets every girl look like a supermodel.

Sports Illustrated supermodel Kate Upton designing swimwear collection for Beach Bunny

Modeling swimwear comes second nature to Sports Illustrated and Beach Bunny supermodel Kate Upton, so it was only a matter of time before she went behind the camera to create her own sexy designs. Kate Upton joins California based Beach Bunny to design suits that represent her fun and flirty personality. The first release of the label, “Kate Upton for Beach Bunny” is scheduled to launch on Beach Bunny Swimwear’s website and retail stores early 2012, however fans can get a sneak peak of her designs at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Swim this July as bikini clad Kate struts down the runway at the designer’s show.

Kate created two styles for her upcoming collection which includes sexy and modern cuts reflecting Beach Bunny's brand aesthetic fused with Kate’s vivacious personality.“Beach Bunny is my favorite swimsuit line out there and to be able to design for them is a dream come true,” says Kate. “I love all the embellishments and especially the lingerie details because they make you feel so sexy.”

Kate is no stranger to Beach Bunny. She first caught designer Angela Chittenden’s eye as a Guess girl and has since been the face of Beach Bunny’s many campaigns including the latest Beach Bunny Bride, an exclusive bridal swimwear collection and the label's new ready to wear line. Kate Upton exploded into the scene this year after she landed the coveted cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue with fellow Beach Bunny supermodel Irina Shayk. She was recently named Esquire’s Woman of the Year and has shot for countless publications. Kate has also worked with photographers Ellen Von Unwerth, Yu Tsai, Raphael Mazzucco, and Stewart Shining.

“We are thrilled about the design collaboration with Kate Upton and know this is a very exciting time for her career. She is sexy, yet confident and her fun loving and down to earth personality are traits that represent the Beach Bunny woman and brand as a whole.” I can’t wait to see how this year unfolds!” says Beach Bunny CEO and designer Angela Chittenden.

If Kate’s designs are any reflection of her thriving career, her suits are sure to cause a swimming sensation.

Lands' End Launches National Swimsuit Confidence Week

landsend confidence

Memorial Day weekend marks the start of summer fun and the swimsuit season for many. However, according to a recent survey conducted by Lands' End, some women actually sit on the sidelines of summer due to lack of swimsuit confidence. Almost three-quarters of those surveyed (74 percent) confess to missing out on water activities due to lack of swimsuit confidence, while 68 percent often refuse to even get up off the beach chair or towel. To help women boost swimsuit confidence and join in summer fun, Lands' End, together with hundreds of real women, will launch the first National Swimsuit Confidence Week May 23 – 27, 2011. The weeklong movement was created to celebrate women of all shapes and sizes as well as educate and inspire them to embrace their swimsuit beauty and have fun this summer.

Lands' End has partnered with Curvy Girl Guide (www.curvygirlguide.com), a collaborative website of 21 writers, to kick off the campaign. On May 23, 2011, the 21 Curvy Girl writers will inspire women across the country by posing and posting photos at www.facebook.com/landsend in their 2011 Lands' End swimsuit. All women are encouraged to join in the inspiring effort and are invited to include their photos on the Lands' End Facebook Fan Page.

As part of National Swimsuit Confidence Week, Lands' End and Curvy Girl Guide will take the campaign to Twitter, hosting a Swimsuit Confidence Power Hour. Each day, May 23 – 27, 2011, Twitter followers can join in at #landsend from noon until 1:00 p.m. CDT, where they will find swimsuit fit tips, inspiration from real women and swimsuit giveaways. "Our mission is to show women you don't have to look like a model to be confident," said Brittany Gibbons, founder, Curvy Girl Guide. "We want to inspire all women to be confident in their skin – and swimsuit – they are in, and we are thrilled to be a part of National Swimsuit Confidence Week with Lands' End."
