Ethical beachwear is not a passing trend, but a shift in how we relate to our
bodies and to the places where we experience summer. Today, more women
are seeking sustainable swimwear that respects the skin, the environment,
and the natural rhythm of things. Choosing a swimsuit does not simply mean
selecting a design or a color. It means choosing what makes you feel well,
supported, and present in your own skin.

This is where the philosophy of Festa Foresta becomes clear. The brand was
born from the desire to create beachwear that offers comfort, authenticity,
and ease, allowing the body to move naturally without having to adapt or
perform. A swimsuit is not a costume to become someone else: it is a second
skin that accompanies and follows you.

Sustainable swimwear: natural and regenerated materials
The first step in recognizing a truly sustainable swimsuit is to look at the
materials. Sustainability is not a claim; it is something you can feel and verify.
Festa Foresta swimwear is made with ECONYL, a regenerated yarn derived
from recovered fishing nets and industrial waste. Choosing regenerated fibers
instead of producing new plastic reduces waste and supports a circular model
of production.
But sustainability is not only about environmental impact. It also concerns
how the fabric feels on the body. A sustainable swimsuit should be:

• soft
• breathable
• long-lasting
• respectful of the skin’s sensitivity

When the fabric is right, it does not need to prove anything. It simply feels
good. Sustainability is, first of all, a sensation.

Italian artisanal production and transparent supply chain
Sustainability also depends on how a swimsuit is made. A swimsuit cannot
be ethical if the production conditions behind it are not.
For this reason, Festa Foresta works with small Italian workshops, mainly
located in the Marche and Lombardy regions. These are places where
craftsmanship is still a living practice, carried forward by experienced hands
and thoughtful processes.
Here, every swimsuit passes through real time and real attention. Quality is
not an industrial outcome—it is a relationship between materials, knowledge,
and care.
An artisanal swimsuit is not a product of mass repetition. It is something with
presence, meant to last, to be worn, to accompany.

Comfort, fit and listening to the body
The truest way to understand whether a swimsuit is right for you is simple:
wear it and listen.
The body communicates immediately. If something feels tight, restrictive, or
requires you to hold yourself differently, it is not the swimsuit that needs
adjusting—it is the relationship between the swimsuit and your body that is
unbalanced.
When the fit is right, it is almost invisible.
You move and forget you are wearing it.
You breathe normally.
Nothing needs constant adjusting.
This is the difference between a swimsuit that looks good and one that feels
good.
Ethical beachwear starts from the body and its right to exist as it is—not as it
should be.

Choosing a sustainable swimsuit as an act of care
Choosing sustainable swimwear is not a sacrifice. It is a form of care—for
your skin, for your body’s comfort, for the environment, and for the people
who make what you wear.

It is care for the time it takes to create something well-made.
Care for what lasts.
Care for gentleness.
A Festa Foresta swimsuit is not designed for a single season. It is designed
to accompany — across summers, across changes, across ways of seeing
oneself that become more patient and more quiet.
Ethical beachwear does not ask you to appear.
It invites you to inhabit yourself, fully and softly.
