It’s common knowledge that when it comes to swimwear, Brazilians excel at it, and Pittanga is one brand that exemplifies this. The label recently launched a collection intended to embody the essence of an eternal Brazilian summer. Established by Juliana Nalú, this independent label is entirely manufactured in Rio de Janeiro, taking creative cues from local flora and fauna, beach life, and the founder’s passion for bossa nova melodies.
The brand originated from Nalú’s personal mission to discover swimwear that is of high caliber and possesses comfortable profiles that transcend seasonal styles. With a strong focus on premium manufacturing, the production process underwent rigorous quality control, resulting in the designer abandoning two initial production runs to guarantee that the end products conformed to her structural norms.
Inspired by her mother’s favorite Brazilian fruit, the brand incorporates genuine local craftsmanship into every piece. Beyond simply providing beach style, the label is committed to supporting its community. A portion of the proceeds from each garment sold is directly donated to Favela Seeds, a philanthropic organization that supports educational and recreational activities for children and youth residing in Rio’s favelas.
