Vitamin A Swimwear Leah One Piece - Graphite Metallic

Graphite is the metallic that doesn't shout. A deep gunmetal with a low, liquid sheen that catches light on the water and goes almost matte in shade — the Vitamin A Leah One Piece in Graphite Metallic has the drama of a metallic without the costume. This is the suit for the last boat back, when the sun is behind the rocks and everything reads a little more like evening than afternoon.

The Details

Fit & Sizing

Take your normal size. Metallic-finish knits typically run slightly firmer than the matte or ribbed versions of the same style — expect a smoothing, held fit.

• Between sizes: Size up. Metallic finishes have less give.
• Long torso: Adjustable straps provide working range at the shoulder.
• Bust: Unlined, unstructured. Best on an A–C cup.
• On metallics generally: The sheen reads brighter in photographs than in person. In natural light this is closer to a dark pewter than a silver.

Sustainability Details

Vitamin A produces in California and builds its collections around recycled and bio-based textiles rather than virgin synthetics — a materially different manufacturing posture from most swim at this price.

This suit is new with tags, curated rather than newly manufactured. Nothing entered production to fill this order. A metallic finish is also, practically, a longevity argument: it is a piece people keep and re-wear across years rather than cycle out with a season's print.

Care Instructions

• Rinse in cold fresh water immediately after every wear — metallic finishes are the most sensitive to chlorine.
• Hand wash cold with mild detergent only. Never machine wash.
• Press water out gently. Do not wring — creasing can dull the finish.
• Dry flat in shade, never in a dryer.
• Let sunscreen and oils absorb fully before dressing.
• Store flat rather than folded to protect the sheen.
• Avoid hot tubs entirely.

Who It's For

Anyone who wants one suit that carries from the water into a bar without changing. Anyone drawn to a neutral metallic over a bright one. Long torsos. Anyone building an evening-capable swim wardrobe.

Who It's Not For

Anyone needing bust support or underwire. Anyone who swims laps in chlorine daily — metallics do not survive that. Anyone who wants full thigh coverage.
