A true standout in any resort wardrobe, the Caralina Crochet Dress is where artisanal craftsmanship meets sultry sophistication. Handmade in Medellín, Colombia, it’s crafted from a soft metallic crochet that shimmers subtly with every movement creating a glow that feels effortless, feminine, and undeniably radiant.
The open-back design is the showstopper: a delicate spine of hand-strung, pearl-like stones cascading down the center. This signature detail draws the eye, balancing the clean silhouette with ethereal artistry. Slim, barely-there straps wrap at the waist to sculpt your figure while maintaining a sleek, elevated finish.
Perfect for tropical nights, yacht days, or beachside cocktails, Caralina is that rare piece that’s bold, refined, and impossible to forget. Layer it over your favourite Sandy Bottom bikini, or wear it solo for a look that commands the room without saying a word.
Let’s get one thing straight: we’re not a fast-fashion brand and we’re not interested in pretending to be. We don’t do disposable trends or pieces that lose their spark after a season. We choose a slower, intentional path. One that honours artistry, empowers the women who craft each piece, and delivers swimwear designed to outlast the moment and elevate every getaway.
Each piece is crafted by women artisans worldwide, combining craftsmanship with confidence-inspiring designs.
We curate unique, small-batch swimwear designed to stand out. Why settle for ordinary?
We focus on quality with ultra-soft fabrics, flattering fits, and durable designs that last season after season.
I grew up on the shores of St. Lucia, where the water is warm, the days are long, and the women are strong. That island spirit shaped me. It gave me an eye for beauty, a love for bold colour, and a deep respect for women who do it all with grace.
Sandy Bottom started with a simple idea: what if I could create something that honoured the women I grew up around and the woman I was becoming?
When my daughter left for university, I decided to show her something important: that reinvention doesn’t have an age limit. That it’s never too late to build something from scratch. That betting on yourself is always worth it.
But this brand isn’t just about me. It’s about women everywhere. The artisans from Colombia to Italy, Bali to Brazil who hand make every piece with skill, heart, and tradition. The women keeping generations of craftsmanship alive while shaping futures of their own.. And the customers who choose slow fashion over fast trends, and impact over impulse.
Every Sandy Bottom piece is carefully curated and helps support real women with real stories. Women earning fair wages. Women preserving culture and craft. Women lifting each other up.
This isn’t fast fashion. This is swimwear with soul. This is resort wear with resonance. This is style with a purpose.
This is an international sisterhood.
