What to know about DU CIEL
Bauhaus geometry, not lace romance
Founder Maria Sinkovskiy builds bras, briefs, bodysuits and one-piece swimsuits around geometric lines, with cut-outs, ruching and tab-slot fastenings recurring each season.
Skin-adjacent tones, transparent fabrics
The palette stays muted and close to skin, worked in stretch nylon jersey, mesh and sheer tulle rather than seasonal colour or print.
Mostly reachable through SSENSE
SSENSE is the label's main stockist and carries exclusive swimwear styles alongside the seasonal lingerie collections, which run through SS26.

Brand facts
DU CIEL is a Düsseldorf-based lingerie and swimwear label founded in 2019 by Kazakhstan-born designer Maria Sinkovskiy.

Cut-outs, ruching and tab-slot fastenings recur across seasons, and sizing is pitched at a wide range of body types.
