Dockhead's women's swimwear lineup is built on two principles: pattern that communicates something, and materials that respect the water you're swimming in. Here's the complete breakdown — every silhouette, every pattern, and why each combination works.
The Silhouettes
String Bikini
The string bikini is the classic. Adjustable, minimal coverage, maximum flexibility. All Dockhead string bikinis are made from recycled materials with a construction that moves well in the water and holds up to actual use — not just poolside photography. Starting at $49.95.
High-Waisted Bikini
The high-waisted bikini set covers more and shapes differently than the string — the high waist provides additional coverage and a silhouette that many swimmers prefer for active water use. Also made from recycled materials. Starting at $49.95.
One-Piece Swimsuit
The one-piece is the performance option — full coverage, secure fit, and available in select patterns for swimmers and water sports participants who need something that stays in place regardless of conditions. Starting at $59.95.
The Patterns
Floral
Classic and versatile. The Floral String Bikini, Floral High-Waisted Bikini, and Floral One-Piece are the complete Floral set. The most universally wearable pattern in the lineup.
Summer Fun
The bold choice. Summer Fun String Bikini, Summer Fun High-Waisted Bikini, and Summer Fun One-Piece. For the person who arrives at the dock and makes an announcement with the swimwear.
Sunflowers
Warm and golden. Sunflowers String Bikini and Sunflowers High-Waisted Bikini. Photographs exceptionally well in natural light — the golden tones against blue water are a combination that justifies the pattern on its own.
Coral Reef
Oceanic and earthy. Coral Reef String Bikini and Coral Reef High-Waisted Bikini. The pattern for the swimmer who wants something that looks like it belongs in the water rather than just near it.
Lemons
Crisp, fresh, and impossible to overlook. Lemons String Bikini and Lemons High-Waisted Bikini. The tart, bright option for anyone who wants the swimwear to speak first.
Abstract Pineapples
Tropical without committing. Abstract Pineapples String Bikini and Abstract Pineapples High-Waisted Bikini. The pattern that makes people do a double-take and ask where you got it.
The Recycled Materials Advantage
Every Dockhead women's swimwear piece is made from recycled materials. This is a production choice, not a marketing one. Recycled fabric reduces demand for virgin synthetic fibers — which are energy-intensive to produce and contribute to microplastic pollution in the waterways our customers are swimming in. Buying Dockhead women's swimwear is a more responsible choice than conventional synthetic swimwear for exactly the people who care most about the water.
And it's made to order through Printful — no overproduction, no excess inventory, no fast fashion waste cycle.
