TRENDS

Our second Lounge Intimate sub-trend is called Relaxed Beachside – versatile swimwear fabrics for home relaxation and beach outings

Relaxed Beachside

Bed-to-beach wear refers to versatile clothing that can seamlessly transition from lounging at home to swimming at the beach. These pieces are designed to be comfortable and stylish enough for relaxation, and functional for beachwear. In essence, it’s clothing that offers both comfort for home relaxation along with the style and performance for beach outings.

Our recommended yarns, fabrics and applications for Relaxed Beachside include: 

Key Yarns

• regen™ BIO Spandex/Elastane: spandex partly made with renewable resources. 
• regen™ Spandex/Elastane: 100% recycled, RCS-certified spandex made from the reclaimed waste from our manufacturing process. 
• regen™ Ocean Nylon: GRS-certified, 100% recycled post-consumer nylon made from discarded fishing nets.
• regen™ Aqua-x Nylon: 100% recycled nylon with cooling action.
• CREORA® Highclo Spandex/Elastane: developed for superior chlorine resistance and high-power, CREORA® Highclo offers greater durability than conventional elastane commonly used in swimwear. Its superior compression preserves the garment’s shape and fit – even in high heat – prolonging the life of swimwear for every adventure in the water. 
• CREORA® Fresh Spandex/Elastane: a deodorizing functional spandex that neutralizes the source of perspiration & foot odor. Its deodorizing performance is built into the yarn, so it will never washout.
• CREORA® Coolwave Nylon: super-cooling action nylon that delivers long-lasting cooling and approximately 1.5 times faster moisture absorption compared to conventional nylon.

The bed-to-beach collection is thoughtfully crafted for seamless transitions from the comfort of home to beach activities.
