The collection draws from vintage swimwear and archival references, shaping a lineup that connects past silhouettes with current styling. Classic forms anchor the range, including the Mina Boy Shorts, Hana Top, and the double-layered Astrid Top. Hand-crafted elements appear through select crochet designs. The International Angel dress and the Gabriella cover-up introduce texture and a lighter construction suited for warmer settings. These pieces extend the collection beyond swimwear, creating options that move between beach settings and everyday wear.
Jennie frames the project through personal references and daily use. She describes the collection as built around “summer moments,” focusing on simplicity, playfulness, and wearability. Her approach centers on garments that feel natural to reach for, designed to support confidence without overstatement. She also introduces the idea of “swim-to-street,” shaping pieces that function across different contexts and extend beyond the beach.
Francesca Aiello, founder of Frankies Bikinis, positions the collaboration as a natural step for the brand. She describes the process as working with a figure who shapes culture on a global scale, bringing that perspective into the Frankies framework.
The collection expands beyond swimwear into a broader range of apparel. The lineup includes shorts, mini dresses, hoodies, and tops alongside bikini sets and one-pieces. Material and detail play a key role in defining the collection. The brand incorporates archival-inspired beading, silver hardware, and custom logos across selected pieces.
The campaign presents the collection through a seaside setting in Hawaii, photographed by Alessio Albi. The setting supports the collection’s focus on relaxed movement between beachwear and daily dressing. Frankies Bikinis schedules the release for April 2 at 9 a.m. PST through its official website.
