Reformation renews partnership with Fulgar and unveils the new SS25 Swimwear Collection
made with 100% Bio-Based EVO® yarn
Sustainable fashion brand Reformation is combining fashion and sustainability with the launch of its new Ref Swim collection, crafted using EVO® yarn. Designed to seamlessly fit into Reformation's aesthetic the new line features everything from minimalist bikinis to sporty one-pieces, all elevated with vintage-inspired details and nods to the brand’s most iconic pieces.
At the heart of this eco-conscious collection is EVO® yarn: a 100% bio-based material produced by Fulgar, a leading Italian innovator in the textile industry. Fulgar has long been committed to developing cutting-edge sustainable solutions that minimize environmental impact. EVO® is a polyamide made from renewable resources like castor beans—grown in arid regions without competing with food agriculture or requiring large amounts of water—and industrial corn not intended for human consumption. Beyond its green origins, EVO® offers the performance of the best polyamides: it's lightweight, stretchy, breathable, and quick-drying. It’s also naturally bacteriostatic and thermoregulating—ideal properties for swimwear.
“As a California based brand, swimwear is a natural complement to our existing product mix, but it’s a particularly challenging category to get right from a sustainability standpoint given its typically heavy reliance on synthetics. We’re super proud of the progress we’ve made in partnership with Fulgar, and will continue to evolve our product strategy to create the lowest impact swimwear possible.”, says Kathleen Talbot, Chief Sustainability Officer & VP of Operations.
This latest launch reinforces Reformation’s mission to bring sustainable fashion to everyone. The company’s environmental commitment is grounded in ambitious but clear goals: to become Climate Positive by 2025 and fully Circular by 2030. Since 2015, Reformation products have been Climate Neutral, and in 2021, the brand earned Climate Neutral certification. Choosing Fulgar’s EVO® yarn for the new swim line is a natural step aligned with these values.
“We’re proud to once again collaborate with Reformation on this collection,” says Daniela Antunes, Marketing Manager at Fulgar. “Seeing our EVO® used in such a meaningful project confirms the value of our sustainable research and represents a significant step forward for a more circular and responsible fashion industry—even in the swimwear segment.”
Ref Swim, made with Fulgar’s EVO® yarn, is available at TheReformation.com and select Reformation stores, in sizes XS through XL.
