As a San Diego resident for nearly 25 years, it always seems to be bathing suit season…even in the middle of February. So don’t act surprised when I write about a local, up-and-coming eco-friendly bathing suit designer in the dead of winter!
Nikster is a new bathing suit company that is not only conscious of a woman’s body, but also of the preservation of the environment. Founder and owner Nikki Sayavanh is a local San Diegan who created the company to offer nature-inspired bathing suit designs to flatter every woman and also to raise awareness about organic business practices and the preservation of sea life. Sayavanh’s sexy designs are accessorized with pearls, stones, shells, bamboo and other natural elements. The company uses recycled materials when possible and pursues business practices to lessen their carbon footprint. She’s best known for her Brazilian bathing suits and she’s had fashion shows in some of San Diego’s hottest night spots.
Because of Sayavanh’s global travels, she sees the bigger picture and designates a certain percentage of her sales to promote a more sustainable planet, protect sea life, keep local beaches clean and improve the life in the third world countries that they do business in. Nikster donates to:

Wow, this is a great article. What an odd coincidence, because my wife just bought a few bikinis from Nikster. Funny how i should run across it in the examiner. Any how, my wife is a huge fan of the Nikster bikini line. She seems to buy a few bikini's every summer and when I asked her why she bought so many of her most recent ones from Nikster, she replied... "Think of it as saving the planet honey". Oh lord!!! Aside from being eco friendly, Im just happy how hot my wife looks in her Nikster bikinis! I hope she saves a few bucks this summer and just sticks with the ones she just bought. She needs to not only be eco friendly, but pocket book friendly!
Good article Nadia. You're right,it is always bathing suit season around here and I love that the designer not only makes products in which to enjoy the natural resources, but contributes to the protection of. I will look up her designs. Bravo!
Yay for summer in the winter!
Thank you for all of your support!! We try to do our best, creating an eco-friendly green bikini (green bikinis) is a bit challenging but we love every part of it! Remember, with every purchase you're saving the planet.. one bikini at a time! Nikster "the sexier side of green".
I seriously LOVE my Nikster eco-bikini. Thank you for blogging about this great new line, Nadia!
