Agua Bendita combines handmade elements with technological processes, resulting in very exclusive and unique pieces. Agua Bendita is a brand recognised internationally by their spectacular designs, avant-garde fabrics and high quality materials. Its playful concepts, colours and styles have made Agua Bendita a highly buzzed-about brand. The classic bikinis and one-piece suits are impossible to ignore thanks to the handmade embroidery, crochet detail, and finishes in visible and thick threads.
The 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue features Agua Bendita for the fourth consecutive year. In this occasion, 3 of our styles made the cut for this prestigious swimsuit edition Bendito Napoleon, Bendito Biscuit, and Bendita Fiesta. This makes Agua Bendita once again, one of the most desirable swimwear brands for editorial purposes in the fashion industry worldwide.
