| Asha Couture
French American designer Asha DeMarco is the creative force behind the ASHA COUTURE and ASHA DEMARCO collections. Raised in Santa Barbara, Asha spent nine months of the year wearing swimwear on the sunny beaches of Southern California. Daughter of French automobile designer Alain Clénet, creator of the Clénet roadster, Asha has designer genes. Her father and his contemporaries; designers, filmmakers and artists fostered Asha's early interest in the arts, which developed into a love of fashion design and ultimately lead to the launch of ASHA COUTURE in 2003.
Asha's European style is attributed to the influence of her French family and Italian husband. This European culture is reflected in the design of each collection. A diving enthusiast, Asha also draws inspiration from "time spent in the ocean, discovering some of the most beautiful colors and prints in nature."
It is Asha's attention to detail and the manufacturing quality that drew us to her line in 2008.

Ana Romano
Two words can best describe Ana Romano's collection - elegant sophistication.
Her new styles are rich in colors but yet subtle in sophisticated styling. One must ask how can solid colors compete with the myriad of colorful embroidery and embellishments flooding the market? But yet she has magically created a line rich in simplicity and confidence. Even though they are swimsuits, one can imagine comfortably wearing her suits from poolside to a night at the opera house.
This was a top seller in 2007 and we are happy to have them back for 2008.
