Bantu Swimwear Boldly Takes A Mission Where It’s Scarce Been Before!

imageBrowsing about the summer 2010 Bantu swimwear collection, it’s easy to fall in love with the bright, fun pieces and look right past their true cause. As fashionable as it is, the Bantu collection and philosophy bats not an ignorant, but a conscientious eye at the third-world state of their beloved continent to illuminate it in the social spotlight. Now that Africa has a heightened sense of popularity drawn about it for hosting the 2010 FIFA World Cup, Bantu gives us one more great reason to turn our minds to the seasoned land of the Sahara. The attractive beachwear is really a campaign to attract tourism to Africa’s coastal beauty. Bantu, also an African language, people, and culture, uses its namesake to help define Africa (which has been stripped of many of its natural resources throughout the course of history) through it’s own form of haute couture. Instead of the traditional tailoring of clothing you’d find other places, Bantu bases its beachwear with culturally-African wax cloth, allowing them to really beat a rhythm that rings their nationalism loud and clear. Check out this slideshow for some steamy, socially-advocating Bantu swimwear samples!
