Swim season is in high gear, which in the world of retail often means that the summer sales are front and center. For buyers, the Spring 17 season is in full bloom. Last week was Salon Mode City in Lyon, France and today, The Miami Swim Show takes off. I was going to attend, but I’ve got terrific eyes on site with my colleague, Kimberly Berger, owner of Lion’s Lair in Islamorada, Florida. Life here has detained me and so, I decided to leave the hands on work to Kim. I was going to tag along with her anyway. In this vein, I haven’t seen much of the Spring 17 preview pieces yet. So, when Curvy Kate enlightened me about their new Peachy Pairs reversible swim briefs, I was intrigued. Finally, a multi- mix and match swim brief that gives a woman two choices in one. The ability to expand a beach wardrobe without a mega investment makes this Brazilian short an easy alternative for sizes 8-20. Curvy Kate Swimwear has realized a 53% growth in sales over the past year. I can see why.
