For Teodora, the process of creating a sustainable swimsuit was more than working on a piece of fabric but a cause that elevates over creative expression. It is design, function, and impact.

Ana took to heart the development of low-footprint packaging. Devoted to the mission, she was able to source up-cycled linen derived from a tablecloth and re-purpose it into a beautiful and functional bag.

After life

Recycle the textile
Don't throw
New textile and new life
We need to close the loop and clean the karma of every piece that we buy. So after many sunny days and happy dances in your Not A Virgin swimsuit, we remind you to submit it for recycling or use our Circulate program with Thrift+ to give it a second life. Let’s build memories together, not mountains of clothes.
