    paper Swimwear x Neroli swim

    Neroli is the delicate essence of orange blossom.
    It carries me back to childhood summers in the south of France, where time slowed and fruit ripened under a generous sun. Warm air, salt on skin, and light that lingered until evening.

    Our swimwear is born from that feeling, effortless, sun-kissed, and timeless.

    Pieces designed to feel like a long summer day you never want to end.

    uniE621 Lingerie collection FW26
    Inspired by the kind of romance that feels a little mischievous. It’s playful and feminine, but never too sweet. Think silky ribbons against bare skin, vintage details reimagined with confidence, and lingerie that feels like a secret you keep just for yourself. There’s a nostalgic warmth to it, late summer evenings, vinyl playing low, candlelight flickering across satin and lace. Lips stained red, undone hair, that quiet moment before you leave the room. It’s intimate, effortless, and slightly rebellious. Old-school romance, modern attitude.
    uniE621 Swimwear collection
    Spring/Summer 26 explores a nostalgic take on femininity through rich retro florals and sun-warmed earth tones. Deep chocolate browns, creamy ivories and muted terracotta hues create a palette that feels both vintage and modern. Inspired by poolside glamour and 70s silhouettes, the collection balances delicate floral prints with clean, sculpted shapes. graphicdesigner designer
    uniE621 Flower Print design
    These prints feature a retro-romantic floral aesthetic, ranging from painterly brown blooms on warm beige and a dense vintage floral repeat to soft blush tonal silhouettes and a bold poppy pattern in pink, red, and green, creating an overall Mediterranean vintage resort feel.
