Making Waves

Making Waves, part of the Maui Clothing Company family of stores, features “Hawai‘i’s largest collection of swimwear” offering eye-catching styles and designs for every shape and size. Stop by their store at Poipu Shopping Village to browse through hundreds of suits from designers such as La Blanca, Beach House, Maaji, Rip Curl, O’neill, Carve Designs and many more, including their own exclusive Maui WaterWear line featuring rashguards and swimwear for the entire family.

“We cater to women of all body types, from bikinis to one pieces, from sexy to modest, in a range of cup sizes and support,” says Valerie Campos, swimwear buyer for Maui Clothing Company. “Whatever she’s looking for in a swimsuit, we have that special piece that will make her feel confident and comfortable.

“My go-to brand for swimwear is Maaji,” she adds. “They have such a unique and wide selection of prints and silhouettes, and offer a multitude of ways to be worn, which adds so much value to the suit. Their pieces are reversible and many of their tops can be worn front or back, which can give you four different ways to style your look.” And nowadays with sustainability top of mind, Campos says the environmentally conscious company has planted over 90,000 trees in Columbia to offset the environmental impact of manufacturing and continues to look for ways to be a sustainable brand.

Making Waves also offers a selection of beach or poolside accessories such as beach bags, sunglasses, hats, cover ups, sun care products and slippers with the latest styles from Crocs, Reef, Sanuk, Ipanema and more.
