Full Coverage Bottoms Made for Movement
The Zola bottoms are designed with a flattering high-waisted fit and full-coverage shortie style, giving you the comfort and security to move through your day with ease. Whether you're chasing kids through the sand, playing beach volleyball, or going for a seaside walk, these bottoms stay put while keeping you comfortable.

Endless Color Blocking Possibilities
One of the standout features of the Zola Swim Set is its color blocked design. This gives you endless opportunities to get creative with your fabric choices.
Mix solids with prints, pair bold colors with neutrals, or combine tropical florals with sporty stripes. Whether you love a minimalist monochrome look or bright playful combinations, Zola lets you create a swimsuit that feels completely your own.
It’s also a fantastic project for using up swim fabric scraps while creating something truly custom.
