A dive into innovation, performance, and sustainability with
the Vitalife line

At the heart of this collection is Vitalife, a revolutionary fabric that combines high performance with a profound commitment to sustainability. Its uniqueness lies in the use of an innovative LYCRA® elastomer composed of 70% plant-based materials, primarily corn, a renewable resource harvested annually.

The new fibre offers a concrete and sustainable alternative to traditional fossil raw materials, while guaranteeing the same performance as the original LYCRA® and proven resistance to degradation caused by chlorine, UV rays, and sun creams.

The collection is aimed primarily at those who do not compromise between style and performance, with a particular focus on sustainability. The swimsuits are offered in three distinct models, designed to enhance every silhouette and perfectly adapt to the needs of every woman:

• Single shoulder: for a femininity expressed with elegance.

• O back: a comfortable and trendy design for those seeking a modern look.

• Swim pro-back: ideal for swimmers facing intense training, without sacrificing style.

The color palette is an ode to nature, with ethereal and pastel shades that evoke lightness and elegance, mixed with intense and dusty colors, an echo of earthly strength. Deep blues, on the other hand, recall the hidden life of the ocean, creating a harmonious dialogue between the aquatic and terrestrial worlds.

Each model is available in three color variations, in a mix of shades that combines earth tones and pastel hues: Morocco-Valencia, Film-Stone blu, and Caviar-Valencia.

“Since I was little, I had to deal with asthma, a condition that limited my breathing and my freedom. To overcome this challenge, I started practicing swimming and, later, freediving. Water was not just a sport for me, but real therapy and salvation. Immersing myself transformed my relationship with breathing, allowing my respiratory problems to progressively improve until they almost disappeared. But water also became the stage for a continuous challenge with myself, a challenge that pushed me beyond my limits and allowed me to achieve many world records. It is proof that what seems like a weakness can become our greatest strength.

Today, I am honored and profoundly happy to have become an ambassador for the ‘Vitalife’ swimwear line, because the values embodied in these designs are also my own. The dedication to protecting nature and in particular the care and respect for water are the same ones I firmly believe in. I love how their colors vibrate and are inspired by the Earth's palette, with shades ranging from the deep sea to the horizon, ideally uniting the sky and the water. For me, Vitalife’. is a manifesto that celebrates life, the environment, and well-being. They are values that I will carry with me in every dive”.
