Jessica Garcia (@by.regiina on Instagram and TikTok) is a fashion content creator from Switzerland, that co-founded @forusbyus_switzerland, a platform that supports black owned businesses and artists in Switzerland. In her own words, Jessica's style is a mix and match of women and menswear, and the results are an exquisite mix of contemporary and glamorous outfits. We asked Jessica what her thoughts are on styling modern swimwear, and she graced us with her insightful tips.
How would you describe your style?
I would describe my style as a mix and match of womenswear and menswear. For me fashion has 0 limit not even the gender.
How do you style your swimsuit for the beach? E.g. what cover-up do you wear with it, any beach accessories?
I would definitely go for long translucid dress. Plus, for the beach the only choice you have to keep it fashion it’s to focus on accessories: cool beach bag, stylish sunnies and jewellery.
Aside from a swimsuit, what is your beach essential?
Sunnies
Which accessories keep the street look elevated?
Outerwear are the most essential thing when it comes to keep your street looks elevated. You can have the most basic looks but with the perfect jacket/coat, everything looks better.
How would you style a swimsuit for the evening?
I would go for a long skirt with the top of the swimsuit, I opened shirt, cool shoes and jewellery.
What does the ocean mean to you?
Freedom.
