“O’Neill has taken key sportswear trends and incorporated them into swim: menswear plaids, buffalo checks, nautical influences, ruffles, and acid wash balance out the masculine and feminine.”
What to expect:
“O’Neill’s target customer remains the same: the beach-loving girl who appreciates the colorful, free-spirited lifestyle they represent. But the design direction is even more fashion-forward than before; it’s more unique and interesting, and maintains a more consistent brand story across the entire collection – from colorways and patterns to key details. Price points will remain the same for the most part.”
Who will be designing the line now?
“Our in-house design team under the supervision of our swim creative consultant, Maria Barnes, will design the line. She is a veteran in this industry, and her experience has been invaluable.”
