PLOVE x NILA: When the INNER FLOW collection softens into Nordic shades
After a short break from the blog, I’m back with some news that I’m absolutely thrilled about. I’ve joined forces with my beloved shop NILA to create an exclusive limited-edition swimwear collection that gives INNER FLOW a whole new, earthier feel. Two worlds, united by a shared appreciation for calm, movement and color. That’s exactly how I’d describe this new collaboration, which gave rise to the exclusive INNER FLOW: Nordic Edition.
The original INNER FLOW concept is inspired by the movement of a hand across paper and the movement of a body in water—from a single line, a single stroke, a single moment of focus. For NILA, this visual language grew quieter and more refined in my mind, enveloped in colors that evoke the depths of fjords, the patterns of lichens, the taste of licorice and the cool beauty of forest berries.
The exclusive edition features two styles: the FJORD one-piece swimsuit and the VEKSTA two-piece swimsuit.
FJORD is all about simplicity that needs no fanfare. A clean cut, considered lines and colors that feel calm without fading into the background. It’s swimwear for women who appreciate quiet, order and things that work without unnecessary fuss.
VEKSTA brings the same timeless elegance to a two-piece silhouette. A sporty yet elegant top and high-waisted bottoms leave room for movement and peace of mind. For swimming, long afternoons by the water and those moments when you don’t want to think about anything—just be where you are.
This collection is special to me also because it’s the very first range in which I’ve worked with my own original artwork. In the past, I used designs by other artists, but this time the distinctive style grew directly from my own lines and strokes.
“What I enjoyed most about this collaboration was being able to reinterpret the INNER FLOW collection in a different tone. Instead of vibrant summer, there’s calm, depth and Nordic restraint. These are colors that don’t shout, but stay with you. And that’s where their strength lies.”
Joining forces with NILA felt completely natural to me—our two brands share the same commitment to quality, local Czech production and materials made to stand the test of time. That’s why I chose sustainable regenerated nylon fiber Econyl®. for this edition, too.
The result is a limited edition for women who aren’t looking for a swimsuit for just one season, but for a cut that lets them breathe and a design that doesn’t demand attention at first glance.
Where can you find the swimwear?
As this is an exclusive collaboration, the entire limited edition is available only in NILA stores and on the NILA online store.
