Selena Gomez is now a swimsuit designer. She has collaborated with her friend Theresa Mingus and her business partner Morgan Brutocao on a new swimsuit line for their company, La'Mariette. Per a press release, the line, which launched today, 'is all about inclusivity, body positivity and celebrating the fact that all bodies are beautiful.'
It includes six styles, two tops, two bottoms, a one piece, and a sarong all in the 'Aura' print.
Gomez posted a photo of herself posing in one of the suits.
She wrote: 'So grateful that I get the opportunity to celebrate my friends’ endeavours. My collaboration with @lamariette is out today!
'What I love about this brand is that it celebrates women who who love their bodies unconditionally giving themselves the grace they deserve. Hope you love it as much as I do ♥️'
'The Aura print is inspired by Selena, her aura shines through in everything she does and we want everyone else to feel that sort of transformative feeling of being their most authentic self,' Brutocao said in the press release. 'Selena’s confidence is unmatched and being able to design a print with her which embodies that is so rewarding.'
This is not the first time Gomez has been associated with La'Mariette. Last summer, she shared a photo of herself wearing a blue suit from the swimwear company with the following caption:
'When I got my kidney transplant, I remember it being very difficult at first showing my scar. I didn’t want it to be in photos, so I wore things that would cover it up. Now, more than ever, I feel confident in who I am and what I went through...and I’m proud of that. T - Congratulations on what you’re doing for women, launching @lamariette whose message is just that...all bodies are beautiful.'
In September, she posed in another floral swimsuit from the line.
'This print for me feels like a memory,' Mingus wrote about the two piece. 'I get that same wash of nostalgia every time I wear it, it reminds me of a day trip Selena and I took when I was considering rebranding my company—we drove down to Newport and spent all day on a boat, laughing and wandering in and out of some incredible vintage stores.'
The new line from Gomez ranges from £35.97-£87.37 and is sold exclusively on la'mariette.com (which does ship to the UK).
