Kiyonna™ Takes the Plunge with the Retro Inspired Swim 2011 Plus Size Collection

Anaheim, CA – June 14, 2011 – Marilyn would be jealous.  Drawing inspiration from the red lips and victory rolls of the sultry pinup age, plus size clothing design house Kiyonna Clothing™ introduces a Summer 2011 Swimwear Collection exuding the simple sexiness of the bombshell era. 

The glamorous collection, complete with versatile suits and cover-ups, capitalizes on the power of suggestion.  The pieces embrace modest and playful retro styles.  Like one of Marilyn’s quiet eye-bats, the simple artistry of design is subtly seductive. 

As part of Kiyonna’s™ control freak technology, smooth inner power-mesh lining provides comfortable support and control.  Stand out favorite, the Ava Convertible Suit, so named after the iconic Ava Gardner, offers convertible straps allowing the swimsuit to be worn in various ways.  Equally versatile is the Catalina Cover-Up which can be worn as a skirt or a mini-dress.  Offered in deep and sultry tones and playful polka-dot patterns, these pieces offer a classy and sexy dive into summer.  Ooh la la!

In an age where uncomfortable ties, buckles, and doo-dads are expected to achieve sexiness on the sand, Kiyonna™ embraces the mentality that less is more.  The Kiyonna™ woman should not have to sacrifice style for good coverage in a swimsuit," says Merrilees Leighton, Kiyonna’s™ lead stylist and co-creative product developer.  The collection is an exciting marriage between functionality and timeless style inspired by universal fashion icons of the 40's and 50's.  Channel Marilyn and take the plunge by checking out the Swimwear collection which can be purchased online at www.kiyonna.com and through select boutiques worldwide.  Stay updated with the latest Kiyonna news on the company’s Facebook page, at http://www.facebook.com/plus.size.kiyonna.clothing.
