Designed by women for women, Girls4Sport's Spring 06 swim and water wear for active females gracefully balances fashion and performance. More than ever, Girls4Sport embraces the "ideal" women of everyday life and the inspiration they embody.

Santa Cruz, CA (PRWEB) November 29, 2005 -- Designed by women for women, Girls4Sport’s Spring 06 swim and water wear for active females gracefully balances fashion and performance. More than ever, Girls4Sport embraces the “ideal” women of everyday life and the inspiration they embody. The Spring ’06 collection launched at the ASR tradeshow in San Diego, CA last month.

Fashion and performance
“Girls4Sport strives to provide a fit for ‘every body’. Nobody looks as good as a swimsuit model in a magazine, not even the swimsuit model in the magazine,” says Leanne Riem, creative director, Girls4Sport. “With digital enhancements and a host of other visual tricks, we tend to lose sight of all the glorious sizes and variations of the female form. We're happy to celebrate real women in their real lives, on the move.”

Spring 06 is more fashion inspired than ever before with new rashguard prints like the especially hip Koochi Pucci swirls and the fun Surf Ride-scapes. Board short prints take on diverse names like Pyro and Plumeria. Solid combinations mix and match with the prints in both the board shorts and rashguard sets. The Girls4Sport Spring/Summer 06 catalog shows all available colors.

“More than attractive colors and patterns, we've dug deeper into performance fit with a new drawstring bottom for extra ‘stay-on’ power and a sports tank/t-back rashguard top for all around water wear,” says Riem. The complete rashguard line includes: long and short sleeve, sleeveless, halter, and now the sports tank. Each top is paired with coordinating boy briefs, bikini bottoms, the new hipster bottoms, a string bikini option, and board shorts. All Girls4Sport swim and water wear tops have built-in shelf bras to provide light support and an extra modesty layer. Designed for “real” wear, each style has a tiny bit of extra length in the torso for coverage that won’t ride up.

SPF Protection
All Girls4Sport fabrics are SPF rated have been professional tested following the AATCC Test Method 183-200. Our board shorts and rashguard fabrics are rated at the maximum of SPF 65 and block at least 98% of UVA and UVB rays. Whether it's surfing, paddling, rowing, swimming, wakeboarding, snorkeling, SCUBA, jet skiing and anything else you can dream up in the water, Girls4Sport has active girls of all ages covered.

New to the line up
Girls4Sport has partnered with Aleeda Wetsuits in Huntington Beach, Calif. to create an exclusive fashion-inspired wetsuit line. Working from the top quality, made in the U.S.A. wetsuit designs from Aleeda, Girls4Sport has added the water-inspired Liquid Blue and spinning Spyro print to the 3/2 wetsuits. In addition, beach bags, beanies, visors, and baseball caps have been added to the Spring 06 line. Baseball caps tout an aloha print and the Surf Buddha Bag says ‘Surf Water Peace’ through a huggable surf Buddha design.

Real women
“We believe every woman is the ideal woman. Vitality isn’t a trend and being a healthy, active female is the best beauty secret we know,” says Kim Ruby, president, Girls4Sport. “Our G4S team riders range in age from 12 to 52 and showcase girls of all ages successfully balancing sport, work/education, family, and life. We believe inspiration and heroes come in many different forms, shapes and sizes.”
