About Alma Da Vela

Imagined in France, the brand is designed for active life, combining aesthetics, technicality and durability. Guided by a spirit of travel and a deep attachment to nature, it naturally turned to Brazil, the birthplace of the bikini and a land of renowned know-how. Alma da Vela, or the "Soul of the Sail" in French, embodies a passion for the ocean, for the wind, for sailing. Designed to accompany every movement, they follow the body in board sports while offering elegantly cut shapes that flatter the silhouette. The chosen fabrics combine technical performance, comfort and durability, to withstand salt, sun and waves while remaining supple and light. Our swimsuits are made from Amni Soul Eco® fibers, the world’s first biodegradable polyamide, created here in Brazil. This fabric can break down naturally in less than 5 years under landfill conditions, which considerably reduces its impact on the planet. Choosing this fabric is to combine aesthetics, technicality and ecological awareness, for swimsuits as beautiful as they are responsible. Each swimsuit is handmade in Brazil, in a small-scale workshop where artisanal know-how blends with the gentle rhythm of tropical daily life. Here, nothing is produced on an assembly line: each piece is cut, assembled and finished by hand, with attention to detail and respect for the human pace.Read their story
