An accomplished designer educated in New England, Karla Colletto cut her teeth creating custom pieces from sportswear to bridal gowns. After enlisting the equally apparel-savvy Lisa Rovan as a business partner, the Karla Colletto company quickly focused in on the then-quiet world of swimwear. Using unique fabrics, whimsical cut-outs and unexpected details, Karla Colletto reinvented the market, carving out a revolutionary niche for their stunning, original suit
At the heart of each Karla Colletto suit are luxurious Italian microfibers in rich colors and striking patterns, treated to a roster of imaginative details. Customized accents utilize a variety of textures and shapes, adding dimension, contrast and a surprising glimpse of skin. Manufacturing each collection in-house ensures the intricate dressmaker-like quality that lends these pieces their highly-developed sense of style.
Celebrated for both functional support and sensual fit, Karla Colletto's work has been featured in publications as diverse as Cosmopolitan, Elle, InStyle, Sports Illustrated and Shape, as well as on "the Oprah Winfrey Show."
