Miko is an ancient term meaning “female shaman” or “female prophecy” and is synonymous with femininity, strength, and beauty. MIKOH SWIMWEAR, created by Oleema and Kalani Miller, is at the cutting edge of gypset style. It is the perfect combination of statement colors and prints inspired by travel, luxurious fabrics, and perfect fitting pieces. Every piece is seamless and hardware-free and can be mixed and matched with all other pieces–ideal for easy on the fly style decisions.
The Miller sisters created the 2013 Paradise Found Collection with the intention of inviting their customers to find a new kind of paradise– one that comes from the feelings of joy, beauty, and release.
This Uluwatu Top commits to the sporty lifestyle with its detailed T-shaped racerback and simple triangle look in the front. As with all of Mikoh Swimwear’s products, this piece can be matched with any of their bottoms. Mikoh recommends pairing this with the cheeky Lahaina Bottom.
Previously featured in the 2011 collection, this Xavier One Piece has been updated with 2013 colors. This suit has a beautiful woven detail on the back that will capture the eye of even the most seasoned traveler.
This St. Barths top and Bondi Bottom are a part of the basics line and are perfect for someone seeking a simple look. The bandeau is perfect for the beach babe wanting to avoid obvious tan lines, while at the same time wanting something chic to add to her swimwear collection. This specific piece is an updated version of the 2011 Reunion Top.
The Laguna One Piece has skinny banded detailing and ties both at the neck and at the back. The wide slits at the side are sexy, but not too revealing. I personally love the fuschia–it gives this suit a little more va va voom.
The Monaco Top is another bandeau, with a beautiful knotted design in the front and cutouts on the sides for added detail. The sisters recommend wearing this top underneath a backless dress as a coverup or an open back singlet. The knotted detailing keeps the suit stabilized so it will not fall off or need readjusting. The Todos Santos Bottom has cutout knot detailing at the sides and has a sexy short fit on the bottom.
Finally, the Kirra Top and Dreamland Bottom (also featured as the main image) are the perfect gypset style pieces and are guaranteed by the designers themselves to be a 2013 favorite. The top has an updated delicate knot detail added to the strings in the front. The bottoms have a “skimpy” fit with long flowy strings that give the suit a whimsical feel.
