Underwire Swim Dress

Norma Kamali’s signature stretch jersey is repurposed here into a structural swim silhouette, featuring molded underwire cups and a sharp, pleated skirt overlay that hits just below the hip. The pull-on style mimics the architecture of a 1950s bustier, trading traditional swimwear drag for a poised, evening-wear sensibility.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The garment is composed of 95% polyester and 5% elastane, both of which are petroleum-based synthetic fibers. These materials offer minimal breathability and pose a risk for chemical leaching and microplastic shedding when exposed to moisture and heat against the skin.
