What's your Favorite Vacation Spot?
Puerto Rico. It's where I regroup.
What are Trends you noticed in Swimwear?
I am noticing fantastic mesh details which is great because I love to
incorporate mesh every season. Underwire bikini tops, feminine details
like fringe and bows. Also color, Bright bold color is were to go.
Do you have any style muses or icons that inspires you?
My pop icons are Tina Chow, Grace Jones, Cindy Crawford, and every
super model of the 1990's. I'm inspired by strong confident woman, the
powerful woman in my family and my gorgeous friends who love
to live in bikinis.
What's next for the RICA Swimwear brand?
I want to continue to make amazing swimsuits and
cover ups for seasons to come. We want to expand across the board and
move into accessories.
We want to make huge Rica sunglasses you can spot from a mile away.

What for this collection Inspiration?
I'm obsessed with fashion photography. Helmut Newton, Herb Ritts and
Deborah Turbeville were the ones I looked up to this season. I played
with rich colors like deep magentas and lush jewel tones that perfectly
define the collection. Strong, sexy and sophisticated. pic credit: Gastrochic.com
