The Philippines is a tropical island nation located in the heart of Southeast Asia. On all four sides, it is bordered by water: the Pacific Ocean to the north and east, South China Sea (or soon-to-be West Philippine Sea) to the west, and the Sulu and Celebes Sea to the south. With its year-round warm weather, 7,107 islands and thus, endless coastlines, what else can be a better way to spend time in this country than go lounging at the beach? And for fashion enthusiasts in the Philippines, lounging at the beach can only be made better by stylish bikinis!

Soak Swimwear, the brainchild of two young Filipinas with a shared love for fashion and the sea, offers the latest fashion trends for beach-loving style mavens (both young and young once!) to wear. The brand, which was created in 2007, features swimsuits in a variety of designs, from teeny tiny triangle bikinis to conservative yet elegant maillots, and from cute, ruffled bandeaus to chic, sophisticated pleated suits.
This brand has been featured in numerous style and fashion magazines, including Cosmopolitan Philippines, Mega Magazine, Rogue, Seventeen, Preview and Asian Traveller. In some cases, big name stars in show biz such as Marian Rivera, Angel Locsin and Anne Curtis have graced the covers of these magazines wearing Soak!

Various celebrities have also been spotted wearing Soak Swimwear’s standout designs: sisters Megan and Lauren Young, Andi Eigenmann, radio jock Andi9, Solenn Heussaff, Heart Evangelista and FHM hottie Sam Pinto have all worn Soak swimsuits to their beach escapades.
Of course, Soak’s appeal isn’t limited to celebrities and stars — even ordinary ladies can become extraordinary with the brand’s trendy yet versatile designs. In fact, Soak Swimwear’s Facebook page features albums dedicated to the ladies of Soak. What’s even more noteworthy is that Soak ladies don’talways go solo: sometimes even whole groups of friends can be spotted wearing the brand!
So what makes Soak Swimwear a highly coveted swimsuit brand among women in the Philippines? Well, for starters, there are the brand’s gorgeous designs. Soak’s designers have actually stated (in their About Page) that they strive to create “bikinis that will bring a sense of laid back elegance and sexy playfulness” — and judging from the way Filipina beach lovers have embraced the brand, it seems as if they have accomplished this goal.
However, a second part of that statement says that the designers aim to create these bikinis “without sacrificing price and quality”. If you are wondering whether Soak has come anywhere near achieving these objectives, take a look at their prices: bikinis from Soak cost anywhere from P1,550 to P1,850 — a feat of economics, considering how exquisite their designs are!

However, the lovely prices are not just the only reason ladies choose Soak as their go-to source for all things beachwear. The brand also boasts of high-quality craftsmanship as well. This is the reason both beach enthusiasts and show biz stars choose to dress-up in Soak — whether it’s salt- and chlorine-laden water or the glare of bright studio lights, Soak ladies know that their suits can stand up to the challenge.
With so many amazing qualities, it’s no surprise Soak has been tapped by many distributors, both locally and abroad. The brand already has branches in Cabana and Powerplant Mall in Makati. SM Ayala and SM Cebu are also distributors of this brand of bikini. Soak designers believe that the brand is well-prepared for widespread distribution, and as they have stated in their website, having numerous retailers calling to ask to distribute the brand has only motivated the them to “create even more stylish, sophisticated designs and push the quality of its swimwear to the next level.”
