This adult-sized swim poncho is a joyful, hand-painted original inspired by a bright, underwater world. The front features playful coral shapes, colourful fish, and a vivid orange lobster, all painted in bold expressive strokes over a sea-blue base. Every motif has been created freehand in our Dingle studio, giving the piece a charming, illustrated quality that feels fun, uplifting and full of coastal character.
The back transforms into a completely different surprise — a panel of vertical rainbow stripes in sunshine yellow, tomato red, sky blue, lilac, green and deep navy. Soft, velvety textures and saturated colour make the whole piece an instant mood-booster.
Made entirely from repurposed cotton towels recovered from the hotel sector, the poncho is thick, warm and wonderfully absorbent — ideal after sea swims, cold-water dips, surfing sessions or beach days. The oversized hood, wide sleeves and roomy front pocket add practicality and comfort, while the hand-painted artwork makes this a true one-off that can never be repeated.
Finished by hand and proudly bearing our LilyMais Dingle label, this piece represents our circular ethos: transforming waste textiles into wearable art that’s bright, bold and full of personality.
