We are excited to present our latest swimwear collection, a limited-edition line that showcases the vibrant and playful artistry of Mathilda Månsson, a talented artist and creator from Sweden. Known for her love of design, food, and flowers, Mathilda brings a colorful and comical touch to her work, making life more beautiful one creation at a time. Her unique artistic style has now been beautifully translated into swimwear, capturing the essence of summer with every piece.

Meet the artist

Mathilda describes herself as an artist who thrives on the beauty found in everyday life. Her artistic style is characterized by its colorful and playful nature, with a hint of humor. She finds inspiration in the world around her, often drawing ideas from everyday situations. Whether it's a beautifully set table, a stylish outfit, or a particular mood she wants to capture, Mathilda blends shapes, materials, and colors in innovative ways to create her unique designs.

Discover the Designs

For our limited-edition swimwear collection, Mathilda has created two stunning designs, each hand-painted and inspired by the Mediterranean summer and the spirit of "la dolce vita".

Midsummer

The first print, Midsummer, evokes the beauty of a Mediterranean summer. Imagine beach umbrellas swaying in the breeze, hot sand underfoot, and the vibrant colors of flowers. This design captures the essence of those idyllic moments with a playful and colorful pattern that brings a sense of joy and relaxation. One of Mathilda's favorite details about this design is the visible brush strokes, which add a personal and artistic touch, making it truly wearable art. 

Voyage

The second design, "Crayfish Delight," or as we call it “Voyage” is inspired by the delightful and festive spirit of summer seafood feasts. The playful crayfish print brings a sense of fun and whimsy to the collection. Mathilda's hand-painted technique shines through, giving the pattern a unique and artistic feel. Her favorite piece from the collection is the swimsuit with the crayfish print, which she loves to wear both at the beach and styled with a pair of loose jeans for a casual yet chic look.

Bringing art to life

Seeing her prints come to life on swimwear has been an incredible experience for Mathilda. "It’s amazing, and I love how they turned out! I’m beyond excited to see people wearing them", she shares. The transformation of her artistic vision into tangible, stylish swimwear is a testament to the collaborative effort between Mathilda and our team.
