I’ve been having a little fun playing virtual dress up this week. I feel like perhaps I missed my calling as a fashion designer. Okay, that’s a bit of a stretch, but I have truly enjoyed creating new looks with the NAYAD, design your own fitness apparel tool called the Visualizer.
NAYAD offers a line of multipurpose sportswear that is ideal for any activity, in or out of the water. You can design your own Fitness Tops, Sport Bras, Shorts, Bottoms and Leggings, any of which can be worn for swimming, running, biking, walking, sailing, surfing, yoga, standup paddle boarding, tennis, pilates and more! I don’t know which I am more excited about – the versatility of the sportswear of the Vizualizer tool which let’s you customize your look.
Nayad has created a special design tool called the Visualizer, which allows you to choose from a variety of patterns and colors to design your own apparel that best suits your style and personality. Nayad apparel is made by hand to your measurements, aesthetic and style preferences.
Using this tool, you can select the style of your top and bottom. I love that the options of aqua shorts and skirts are available, in addition to briefs. You can mix and match colors and prints, and can even choose the skin tone of your virtual model.
Here’s another one of my designs…
As you can see there are some very fun prints and colors to choose from. Each suit is made to measure, so you will need to pull out your measuring tape when placing your order. As a plus size woman who is not the same size on top and bottom, this is a fantastic feature of this line. In my younger years I would have gone for one of the briefs, but these days I gravitate towards the shorts, skirts, and yoga pants. I really appreciate that NAYAD is meeting the needs of all women, all ages, shapes and sizes. They’ve covered every little detail to make sure you get a perfect fit, even an offering of a two inch breast band for larger busted women who need additional support.
Yes, it’s a bathing suit but it’s way more than a bathing suit. These athletic swimsuits are said to be ideal for any activity, in or out of the water. By merging athletic and dancewear designs with fashionable, quick-drying spandex, Nayad has created a new category of amphibious apparel constructed specifically for the moving body.
Here are just a few key features…
Soft but firm support without the use of clasps, wires, buckles, knots or hardware of any kind
Fast Drying
Ideal for any high or low impact activity, in or out of the water
Select styles that will best accommodate your figure
Engineered to enhance mobility and boost physical confidence

If you’re a person that hates trying on bathing suits or is desperate for that “perfect fit”, this company is probably a great option for you. Also, if you need a suit that will take you right from swimming to yoga or working out in the gym, there are styles perfect for that and the fast dry fabric makes this very doable. I hope you will check out the NAYAD web site and Visualizer Tool for yourself, and let me know what you think.
