This chic, designer bikini is a change of view from the functional swimwear. The French brand was established in Paris 1989, and then introduced to Bali in 2004. Formerly known as Blue Glue, Thaikila offers some of the sexiest cuts and styles that will make your holiday photos pop. Even better, their bikinis are made from recycled bottles.
