Beachwear Trends for S/S 2012 from

There are different themes for the various times of the day: in spas or health centres, in the pool, during competitions, and a glamorous look for confidence and maximum comfort at a party or a drink before dinner on the beach.

Chlorine: This theme features the SUPERFAST COLORS treatment that ensures the colours will stand up to frequent washing for extended periods and prevents them from rubbing off when damp clothes are left next to each other for a long time in conditions which are not ideal, such as in bags after sporting activities and trips to the swimming pool or the beach. Sensitive® Life is designed for use in swimming pools and competitions, meaning that resistance to chlorine is important. It is light and ultra-thin, giving excellent elasticity, maximum comfort and quick drying times. Thanks to Sensitive® Power, a technical fabric with superior containment capacities, it boosts performances in races and is resistant to the corrosive effects of chlorine and the loss of elasticity, even after many hours of exposure to pool water.

Wind: This theme sees the presentation of a groundbreaking denim look with Sensitive® Drill, which offers a coloured jeans effect with a number of changes of hue. Sensitive® Classic, Sensitive® Life and Sensitive® Power are three sporting fabrics for outdoor activities such as sailing, surfing and kite surfing. These water sports require ultra-light, comfortable and breathable clothes that dry quickly. They have no seams or hems, are colourful and are enhanced with contrasting profiles.

Essence: Sensitive® Seric with its exclusive shimmering silk effect, Sensitive® Classic and Sensitive® Life with its exceptional durability are the stars of the cruise world. A passion for the sea, fashion and the high life come together with maximum comfort and elegance in a spa environment, allowing wearers to fully enjoy and benefit from the sensations offered by the experience. Prints and solid hues create textures and colour effects on the surface.

Sand: Sensitive® Classic and Sensitive® Plus are ultra-fine, breathable and extremely lightweight. This theme is for people who enjoy games and sport alongside the sea or lake, and those who simply want the utmost comfort as they take in the sun. It is the most vibrant and youthful of the textiles in the range.

Moon: For a dinner, a moonlight cocktail on the coast or a beach party. This elegant, sophisticated option comes with various textures, animal skin designs and ethnic patterns produced with new ECO PRINT technology, which interacts with solid colours to create ton-sur-ton or contrasting effects using a coloured pigment. There is a broad selection of tone-on-tone stripes, such as alternating dark and light yellow. Depending on the type of use, it spans from light pastel colours to darker and deeper hues such as charcoal grey and black.

Sensitive® Colour Therapy presents an exceptional array of hues from the Classic line in which 80 solid colours are organized in chromatic order. Especially for designers and creative talents, this pocket-sized modular kit can satisfy all designing requirements, updated with latest fashions.
