Inspired By

A little more than 140 miles from LA rests an art-nouveau oasis on the desert floor of California’s Coachella Valley. It is here that classic architecture meets poolside chic in a landscape that is pleasantly rough around the edges. The music of an era stitched in time and the quiet cool of Palm Springs intertwined to inspire the new “Some Like it Haute” Collection from Tyler Rose Swimwear.

The “Some Like it Haute” 2012 Collection is wild and flirty, paying homage to a lifestyle embodied by those living in Palm Desert without sacrificing the trademark flair that you’ve come to expect from Nichole Carroll and TRS. Bold triangles and daring bandeaus are staples this season, with suits like “I Put a Spell on You” and “Fever” earning their names from songs of the era that the designer listened to while creating these couture works of art.

This year’s collection instantly evokes the panache of 60s pool culture; because Palm Springs is where it swings. Back when going on holiday meant something. When tans were earned, not purchased. When cocktail hour was mandatory and bikinis were dangerous. The vibrant colors and sexy silhouettes of this season’s collection demand attention, telling all who see them that the bikini ain’t back because it never went anywhere.

These suits – and the women in them – are glamorous and fierce. They pull no punches and take no prisoners. They’re not for the faint of heart and they are not to be taken lightly. Put one on and go cause a stir, you know you want to.

Be daring. Create your own bikini wardrobe. You can buy a swimsuit and tell someone about it, or you can wear Tyler Rose Swimwear and not have to say a word.
