Summary: Many wouldn't expect rhinestones and metals to be added to swimsuits for glamour but that is exactly what Gottex did for it's Spring 2011 collection. Creating a fusion of technlogy and luxury, the collection accentunated the female form, using fabrics develeoped especially for showing off the figure without too much reveal.
