There are swimsuits. And then there’s Maiswim — a Portuguese label founded by two best friends who simply wanted a better option. One that looked good and worked during your period.
Their pieces feature a 4-layer leak-proof technology that lets you swim, surf, or sunbathe for up to 8 hours with full confidence. And yes — they’re sleek, flattering, and beautifully designed.
Created by Sara Salvador and Tânia Santos Silva, Maiswim focuses on high function without sacrificing femininity. The cuts are curve-hugging and elevated — far from the bulky, utilitarian feel most period-proof pieces carry.
Everything is made in Portugal, using Econyl® — a regenerated fabric made from ocean waste like discarded fishing nets. It’s soft, sustainable, and part of the brand’s mission to empower women to feel confident in their bodies, every single day.
Available online and at El Corte Inglés in Lisbon and Porto, Maiswim is expanding soon — but always staying true to their purpose: giving women swimwear that understands them.
