Desa Potato Head's new swimwear collection is inspired by Balinese philosophy

Desa Potato Head has unveiled its latest swimwear collection, that continues to showcase their commitment to sustainable style.

Made up of eco-friendly materials like recycled polyester and EcoVero, ensuring a light, breathable fit perfect for tropical climates.

With designs for both men and women, the collection includes pieces infused with Balinese philosophy and vibrant, unique prints that mirror Potato Head’s multifaceted brand identity.

This line-up features items like a rash guard with a front quarter zip, designed for surfing and sun protection, adorned with a pattern representing fire—one of the core elements in Balinese Hinduism.

Items like a one-piece swimsuit with a V-neck front and low-cut back plus a bikini set sport both a fire-inspired and monogram pattern that represents the philosophy of duality, or Rwa Bhineda, balancing light and dark.

There are also swimshorts and rash guards designed for surf and sun protection that carry both bold patterns, blending functionality with meaning.
