Leather for the beach

05/06/2009

For those looking to make a real statement on the beach this summer, a new range of high-end swimwear featuring leather and Swarovski crystals could be just the thing.

Swimwear brand Rose Cha Atelier has launched a range of leather and chiffon suits, some with the crystals and some without, which are retailing at between $1,200 and $3,200. They are available as one-piece suits and bikinis.

According to reports, the limited-edition swimsuits, which cannot be used for swimming, are selling out almost as quickly as they enter the shops.
