Swimsuit Innovation: Plus Sizes by Junonia Lead the Trend to Chlorine Resistant Fabrics

It’s that time of year when women get back into the pool! Aqua classes are heating up in YMCAs and clubs across America. Aqua sports continue to grow in popularity, as people discover the benefits of pumping up a heart rate without excess body heat or joint pain. Add to that the fun, social, and motivating aspects of these classes, and the formula for long-term, feel-good success is clear.

Plus size women are especially drawn to these classes, and are reporting their enthusiasm. Click here to see blog article.

However, to fully engage in aqua sports, plus size women told Junonia they needed two things. A swimsuit that fits, supports, and provides the coverage she wants, AND a swimsuit that lasts in the pool. Junonia has accomplished this for the plus size woman by introducing their AquaSport® collection of long-lasting chlorine resistant suits.

AquaSport® suits feature a special all-poly fabric that does not rely on spandex for stretch. Its stretch is mechanical, coming from the actual nature of the knit itself. While not as controlling as high-spandex suits, for the regular swimmer or aqua exerciser looking for a suit that will last well beyond the typical six-month or less lifespan of a spandex suit, this is the answer! Junonia features a great fit and design that give plus size women the conservative coverage that she likes for her regular workout. From tankini top to pool short, athletic X-back to skirted style, Junonia has plus size swimwear covered and ready for the pool. Long-lasting AquaSport® is popularly priced from $69.95 to $119.95.

Junonia is the premier catalog and online provider of active and casual clothing for the woman who wears an XL (14-16) to 6X (38/40). Exclusively focused on this woman, Junonia provides the best-in-class clothing from swimwear and skiwear, to casual for the plus size woman.
