Funky Chiquita

The word 'Funky' is hard to define but somehow we all know what it implies! 'Chiquita' in colloquial Spanish is a girl friend. Funkita the brand name, is a contraction of these two words and that seems entirely appropriate for this women's swimwear label. Freedom, fashion and fun are mantras for the team at Funkita whose mission, first and foremost, is to create form-fitting functional swimwear that is playful, energetic and dynamic in design.

Not content to work with traditional colour palettes and prints, Funkita draws on strong architectural and popular culture influences for print inspiration and places a huge emphasis on colour balance. At the drawing board, Funkita's designers look for inspiration in everything and create stories from "anywhere and everywhere".

In Focus Form & Functionality

With the same determined gusto they invest in colour, print and design elements, Funkita scours every square inch of the globe sourcing the perfect fabrication for their swimwear. Weeks of rigorous testing follows as the fabrics are subjected to harsh chemical treatments that will determine their durability. Funkita concedes many don't meet their exacting requirements but of those that pass, the sampling process then focuses on fitting different body shapes and sizes so that construction is just right.
