La Blanca Swimwear

Rod Beattie, the designer of the fabulous La Blanca collection of swimwear is a California native and graduated from Otis Parsons College of Design.  He first began his career as a designer for several contemporary sportswear houses before switching over to swimwear back in 1988.  Beattie keeps his reputation impeccable by continuing to "wow" the world with his trend savvy designs that are sophisticated, stylish, but also ensure an extremely comfortable fit. 

When any of the pieces are created, they are done so by using the best fabric available and the knitting of the item is only done by machine to ensure little to no visibility of hem lines.  Instead of making the same piece that has been done in the past he chooses to experiment with different leg lines, modern colors, and different strap combinations.  He serves as a design critic, mentoring students on a semester long assignment that culminates in an annual fashion show.  He credits this as what keeps him pushing through to new territory and his styles very innovative and new and when in need of more inspiration he heads down Mexico, a favorite getaway spot for Beattie to relax and gain new ideas.  This line is one of those you can always count on for "that" suit that will exude sexiness while still fitting very comfortably.
