ABOUT
Rhua Studio – a premium swim and resort-wear label designed in Paris and made in Portugal. It embodies minimalism, confidence, and style, capturing the essence of seductive European summers. Each bikini is crafted from the finest Italian lycra, featuring flattering cuts and bold colors. These timeless designs are destined to become summertime staples season after season.
The essence of Rhua Studio is rooted in the concept of ‘perfecting the classics’. It’s a fusion of minimalism, sensuality, and understated luxury that never compromises on a fit that feels like a second skin. From stylish bikinis to trendy cover-ups, the brand always pays the utmost attention to detail, ensuring each piece flatters and enhances the beauty of every woman.
At the heart of this brand's vision is the belief that swimwear should reveal, not conceal, the unique beauty of every woman. I realized early on in my fashion journey that it’s the person who enhances the garment, not the other way around - believes the founder. This perspective is especially powerful when designing swimwear - a category of clothing that demands simplicity and a respect for the natural form. At Rhua Studio bikinis are crafted with clean, minimal lines and thoughtfully tailored fits that work in harmony with the body, allowing each piece to highlight and elevate the wearer’s natural beauty without overpowering it. The goal is not merely to create beautiful swimwear but to design pieces that honor the body, celebrating its form and individuality, so that the bikini becomes just a frame for the woman within.
This philosophy extends to the mission: to provide the most accurate sizing experience possible.
I recognize the frustration and challenges faced by women with petite busts when searching for swimwear that fits perfectly and provides minimal tan-friendly coverage. That's why I am committed to offering a range of sizes and cuts specifically tailored to cater to smaller busts, ensuring every woman can find her ideal fit without compromise. At Rhua Studio, ‘xs’ actually means ‘extra small’ - says the founder about her first launch.
The brand is committed to delivering quality products and promoting sustainability by choosing to partner solely with certified European suppliers. At Rhua Studio, every piece is crafted in Portugal using carefully chosen recycled Italian fabrics made of 100% regenerated nylon fibers from pre- and post-consumer waste materials. Oeko-Tex certified fabric is not only sustainable but also resistant to pilling and tearing, highly elastic, and maintains its shape unaltered even after extended usage and multiple washes, making it an excellent choice for beachwear collections.
