'The suit I fell hardest for, though, is a one-piece from the Australian label Ephemera, founded by Saint Laurent alum Nicole Banning.'

'After three years in Paris, Banning has a distinctly European design ethos that is mirrored in the finished product.'

'The Ephemera collections are focused on beautifully and precisely cut bikinis and one pieces, in either single, bold colours – or interesting colourways.'

‘These are pieces designed to be cherished forever.’

'Banning approaches swimwear with a ready-to-wear point of view and executes her minimalist designs to the same standards as high-end clothing. The resulting suits feel like the sorts of items one can wear — and look fresh and stylish in — for years.'

'Nicole Banning was walking the cobbled streets of Paris and longing for the beaches of her hometown of Sydney when she first dreamt up the idea for Ephemera: a minimalist swimwear brand with a focus on great fit and quality material.'

Ephemera turns ‘the notion of a 'boring' one piece on its head, with chic cut-outs and intricate design details that flatter in all the right places.’

'The suit I fell hardest for, though, is a one-piece from the Australian label Ephemera, founded by Saint Laurent alum Nicole Banning.'

'The Australian label reimagines silhouettes of decades past with elegantly modern touches, resulting in timeless-feeling designs you’ll keep forever. '
