Maya’s 3-Piece Capsule Formula

Start your day by throwing on a sheer linen shirt over the one-piece, unbuttoned, with a pair of oversized sunglasses. This effortless layering takes you from the cabana to a beachside brunch without missing a beat. As the sun climbs, ditch the shirt and let the suit shine on its own—it’s designed to be worn as a top, so pair it with a high-waisted sarong or a flowy maxi skirt for a lunch date.

As sunset approaches, swap the sandals for strappy leather slides and add a chunky gold necklace. Throw on a lightweight kimono or a cropped denim jacket, and you’re ready for a beach bar. The beauty of this one-piece is its chameleon-like quality—it transitions from swimwear to streetwear with a simple change of accessories. I always tell my clients: treat the suit as a bodysuit, and you’ve doubled your wardrobe.
