The emerging retailer OOKIOH hopes to make [recycled swimwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/versatile-sustainable-swimwear) more accessible and stylish after having dropped its first beach-ready line, that's comprised of [bikinis and two-pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-swim-collection) that have been constructed from 80% recycled material.

The swimwear brand believes that clothes one wears in the pool should “be a reflection of how you dress on land. Because 90% of women don’t do stilettos by the pool, we created a line of swimwear that makes you feel like you, only waterproof.” The end result, is a nostalgic line that features numerous silhouettes and plenty of [vibrant colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/country-club), presenting consumers with the opportunity to mix-and-match and to find something unique to their personal aesthetic.

The entire collection is priced under $100.
