Billabong Big Wave Bikini Design Contest: Get In On The Design Action

Early this month, The Billabong Big Wave Bikini Design Contest went live on www.myLYCRA.com allowing any U.S. consumer to design a swimsuit by clicking and dragging their choice of fabric onto one of a variety of swimsuit styles. Website users can now vote on their favorite looks and those favorites will then be narrowed down to 20 that will be reviewed by a panel that includes Gabeira. The winning look will be sold as part of the summer 2011 Billabong collection and be called Maya Gabeira Signature Swimsuit designed with Xtra Life LYCRA fiber.

Fans of Gabeira can also look forward to the athlete talking about her favorite designs via an online streaming video.

Can you imagine designing a suit that Gabeira and countless others would subsequently wear?
