When Alexandra Cassanti isn’t busy surfing, she’s off making incredible wearable neoprene clothing. If you’ve ever worn a wetsuit then you know they’re comfortable as shit, but did you ever think of wearing a neoprene dress or leggings outside of the beach? Alexandra did and she’s been killing it ever since. Her new pieces from collection Summer 3, which include the perfect little black dress and some supremely hot bathing suits, are all going to probably sell out faster than she can make them.
All of Alexandra’s pieces seem kind of ideal for the not soon enough Winter. I mean, if this material is meant to keep you warm in the cold ocean, then maybe it’ll be good for snow too? Whatever, either way you’re gonna look fucking awesome in any of it no matter where you are.
If that wasn’t enough she also took the typical black plastic bodega bag which I find myself carrying around in lieu of my leather bags sometimes and cut it in smooth neoprene and pretty much made me want to toss all my other bags and just carry this simple but rad one in all their places.

Using a cloth bag doesn’t do anything for the environment if your just going to toss an old one whenever a new dazzling one is made dip shit….assholes like you is why we are all going to be 5 meters underwater in a few years.

Yeah Jen, go wear a fucking wetsuit around town, see how cool and comfy you’ll be.
Like I said before…

#2 looks like the perfect outfit to go visit/blow your meth dealer

So, what happens to that little black dress when you stand up straight? Will it even cover the fringe on your centerpiece? Also, the red bikini is really cute.

alexandra has skills, especially her bags (was a big fan of the pink eye tote)
07.29.09 at 1:38 pm
Oh yeah!!! I heard the little red bikini with the sewn-in skirt thing is all the rage this summer on runways worldwide!!!

“If you’ve ever worn a wetsuit then you know they’re comfortable as shit..”
no.

fucking twat this girl, Neoprene is thermal, she’ll fucking die of sweat.
God Jen sucks… my sack.
07.29.09 at 3:31 pm
YOU DIDN’T EVEN SPELL THE DESIGNERS NAME CORRECTLY. AND YOU DID IT TWICE. IT’S “CASSANITI.” sorry, these things DO MATTER. You might as well be speaking about a totally different person.
JEESH.

And if YOU’VE ever worn neoprene Jen, you’d know that wearing neoprene dry sucks, and was designed for surfing/scuba diving/etc, not wearing around town.
Nevermind the mention dry rot.
But then again my wetsuits are 1/4″ thick, hooray New England surfing.

disagree

Farting in a wetsuit is always fun. You can feel the bubble moving up to your neck.
Or pee, you can feel it moving to your ankles.
Wearing a wetsuit is not exactly comfortable, but women’s asses look great in them. They will totally flatten the largest of tits though.

i like the lady that writes these things, i dont couldnt give a flying fuck about any clothes or anything, but shes enthusiastic about stuff and likes things which i think is good?
girls that like things are good to have around?

ps. i bet i could beat you up

The Japanese are gonna go apeshit for this kind of stuff, man. The amount of porn coming out of Japan that focuses specifically on mid-80s one piece speedo swimsuits would make Dov Charney blush.

You must feel like Edward James Olmos (“What’s Cal-coolus”) writing about fashion to this audience.
07.29.09 at 11:10 pm
I actually want to buy and wear the red swimsuit. If only Coney Island waters weren’t so disgusting.
07.30.09 at 12:42 am
wetsuits aren’t comfortable at all, and you’ll never find one that fits you right all over.
Most importanly, neoprene smells awful.
07.30.09 at 2:11 am
WHO LETS THIS BITCH KEEP WRITING?
07.30.09 at 3:33 am
haha yeah there is the smell factor with a wetsuit..
07.30.09 at 4:10 am
female athletes are hot … since we have a black president, being an athelete is cool … being a fat rich white guy is totally 80s … this is the new era … white people can be atheletic too!
