Bio-mimetic sun protection inspired by hippopotamus biology
Join the Eclipse ✦You're at the beach and notice your swimsuit's rose-petal pattern slowly darkening from soft pink to deep crimson across your shoulders and back. You glance down and instantly see exactly where you've had too much sun exposure. No app needed, no ugly wristband—just elegant, lifesaving visual feedback built right into what you're already wearing. You cover up exactly where needed, avoiding the burn you would have gotten.
Inspired by hippos' natural UV-blocking compounds, our fabric creates eclipse-like light patterns that visualize UV exposure in real-time.
Integrated petal-like sensors unfurl and change color based on accumulated sun dose—replacing ugly trackers with beautiful beach fashion.
Direct-to-consumer at $180-$250. Positioned between Vuori and luxury swim labels. For women aged 28-45 who love the beach.
