Surania, a Spanish online company offers a unique service in buying your swimwear, it can be made to custom measurements, and you can choose your own fabric for each part of the swimsuit from the selection they have on offer on their website.

I let my children help choose from the array of patterned fabrics available to ensure it was something they liked.  For Mister B, we chose classic style swim shorts with an elasticated waist and pocket on the back.  We chose a blue palm tree design all over, although you could have a different design on the waistband and on the pocket.  These fit him well and he was very pleased with them, they appear to be a good cut and something he looks forward to wearing.

For girls there is a much wider choice with a choice of swimsuits or bikinis.  Miss M chose a swimsuit, of which there are six designs, each with different straps, bows and frills etc.  The design she chose has a bow in the centre which you could select a different fabric  for.  We chose a pink paisley style pattern for the main body and plain pink for the bow.

Miss M liked her swimsuit although we did find it fitted quite snug and she does prefer a more looser fit in clothes, but you could get that by ordering a slightly larger size.  You have two options for buying the right size.  You can either enter in your child’s height and age for a simple fit (which we did) or for a more accurate fit, you can take more detailed measurements to include waist, hips etc.The children are happy with their swimsuit designs and I’m happy with the quality, the swimsuit is double layered and all the stitching seems strong.  Obviously being custom designed, this swimwear does cost more than your regular high street purchases, but I bet you won’t bump into anyone else in the same design as you wearing one of these.  If you want something a little bit different, then Surania is worth trying.  Just bear in mind though, that the clothing is made in Spain, and it does take a few weeks for your swimwear to be made up and delivered.

All reviews are my own and my family’s opinions and we received the swimwear in order to write the review.
