ESTEREL — ESTEREL swimwear — is a Riviera brand at esterelswimwear.com. The name comes from the Estérel massif on the Côte d’Azur: red volcanic rock between Cannes and Saint-Raphaël that drops into the Mediterranean. We design hardware-free, tagless swim in Italian technical fabric for women who summer year-round.
An independent brand
ESTEREL is its own house — not affiliated with Faithfull the Brand or any Faithfull product once named “Esterel.”
What we make
Drop 002 is a focused edit of one-pieces, bikini tops, and bikini bottoms in three colourways — Nero (black), Crema (off-white), and Limone (butter yellow). Silhouettes take their names from Riviera places: Cap-Ferrat, Portofino, Èze, Antibes, Martinez, Agay. Shop the edit: Riviera Swim · Euro Summer · Second Summer Drop.
Fabric and construction
Every piece is cut from premium Italian technical fabric — matte, sculpting, chlorine- and saltwater-resistant, sustainably produced. Fully double-lined in every colourway, hardware-free (no rings, clasps, or bars), and tagless. Constructed in a dedicated swim studio in Bali. More on The Craft.
Fit and sizes
Four sizes, XS–L, weighted toward XS and S. Cuts run about a half size slim versus many ready-to-wear charts; between sizes, size up. Full measurements: Size Guide.
Price band
Current Drop 002 pricing (USD): bikini tops from $95, bikini bottoms from $75, one-pieces from $185–$195. No discount codes.
Pre-order and shipping
Drop 002 is made to order / pre-order. We email a ship window with your order confirmation — we don’t publish fixed calendar ship dates on product pages. After dispatch, typical transit is about 5–8 business days to the US and Europe (longer elsewhere). See Shipping & Returns.

14 days from delivery. Unworn, unwashed, hygiene liner intact. Pieces are tagless by design — tags are not required. Details: Shipping & Returns.
Riviera spine, Euro summer discovery
Riviera is the brand spine — place names, Italian fabric, hardware-free craft. Euro summer and European summer are simply how some people find the same wardrobe: not a separate product line.
