Dallas Gets Mint Swim 2015 Preview
Words by: Milana Alchemista
This past weekend, local heavyweight boutiques B’donnas and Jacque M teamed up with PartyChaser.com and Basketball wives star Draya Michele’s Mint Swim to host a fashion show as the culminating event for the inaugural “Pink Pumps & Paparazzi” Girlfriends Getaway event.
Michele shared with COSIGN that the new Mint Swim Summer 2015 collection will feature a largely expanded plus size and children’s line. “I wanted to cater to everyone I listen to the feedback my customers give me and there were a lot of customers who wanted bigger sizes and there were a lot of customers who wanted things for their daughters. There was a big request for “mommy and me” suits. I just thought, why stop at just regular sized bathing suits why not every size bathing suit.”
Judging from the show this past Sunday, the new line promises to mix in your old favorites (read: the flattering Fiona suit seen on Instagram pages everywhere) with some new pieces that you will absolutely need to add to your collection.

The Fiona is the hands down favorite and all time standout. Extra points for original design and universally flattering fit.
The fashion show this past Sunday also featured brand new suits that we can’t wait to get our hands on for the upcoming season.
Michele says that you can also expect something completely new from her other fashion line, Fine Ass Girls. “There is a whole new FAG line there will be dresses and swimsuits. I’ve added some more affordable pieces and some swimsuits which is a totally new thing I just wanted to see if I could try it out and see how the swimsuits are selling. They (Fine Ass Girls and Mintswim) are definitely a different target audience F.A.G is definitely a younger brand for your everyday girl. I just design with that in mind.”
Needless to say, we #cosign the Mint Swim summer 2015 line. You’re sure to see these little bikinis on beaches everywhere this summer.
