Most people would agree that unique style sense belongs to the eye of the beholder. But for the fresh, flirty and fashion-forward gal, unique style belongs to the eyes of Scarlett Chorvat and Alison Renner, creative designers of SHIMMI Swimwear.This inventive duo construct suits for the type of women who exude confidence, radiate sex appeal without going over the top, and for women who can sit poolside at an A-List party one day and for a surf lesson with her best friend the next. SHIMMI is swimwear, yes, but a lifestyle, too. It’s for the barefoot hippie, the Louboutin-clad power stylista, and the girl who thinks it’s only fair that she can be both. Scarlett and Alison have artistically designed their collection with cutting edge style, modernism and comfort. An appreciation for sexy chanteuse Jane Birkin, the French Mediterranean and rock & roll are just some of the influences that inspire their collections. The collections consist of unique, lightweight fabrics, playful patterns and vibrant colors that compliment all skin tones, with silhouettes that reveal your body instead of covering up. Beautiful fabrics are innovatively cut and designed to fit the everyday woman and the girl who isn’t afraid to be the center of attention. Raised in the Midwest and now living in Los Angeles, both Scarlett and Alison left their hometowns to pursue successful modeling careers in New York and Paris. Combined, they have worked with notable photographers including Helmut Newton, Francesco Scavullo, Mario Testino, Walter Chin and Terry Richardson to name a few. Both have graced the covers of magazines, as well as the campaigns and editorials inside of them. Their whirlwind backgrounds, plus their natural sense of adventure and creativity, allow Scarlett and Alison to embrace their passion for fashion, music, art and laughter. Their free spirits and down to earth vibes are reflected in their business and their collection – sexy swimwear that’s ready for anything. Together, they will continue to create swimwear for the girl that has everything going on and is always looking for the “perfect suit” to keep up.
