The Linda Reversible Wetsuit is Vivida’s pioneering women’s waterwear hybrid: a long-sleeve swimsuit, rashguard and lightweight shorty wetsuit in one. Made with flexible 2mm neoprene, it gives you more warmth, coverage and security than regular swimwear while still feeling flexible and feminine in the water.
Fully reversible, the Linda gives you two looks in one suit: Vivida’s signature Map of Dreams print on one side and sleek Graphite Grey on the other. To learn more about how this one-of-a-kind design came to life, read the story behind the first reversible zipped wetsuit in the world.
It is both. The Linda works like a long sleeve swimsuit because it has a flattering one-piece shape, medium bottom coverage and a stay-put fit. It also works like a shorty wetsuit because it is made from flexible 2mm neoprene wetsuit material, helping add insulation for surfing, swimming, kitesurfing, paddleboarding and wild swimming.

The Linda is lighter, more elegant and more versatile than a traditional full wetsuit. Made from flexible 2mm neoprene, it gives you added warmth, coverage and confidence for swimming, surfing, freediving, paddleboarding and kitesurfing, while still feeling feminine, flattering and easy to move in.
Its fully reversible design also means you get two distinct looks in one: a bold Map of Dreams artwork side and a minimal Graphite Grey side. The design took years of refinement because both sides needed to feel finished, comfortable and beautiful — not like one side was simply the “inside”.

Yes — the Linda has been celebrated as one of the best shorty wetsuits for women because it brings together warmth, flexibility, feminine shaping, reversibility and standout Vivida design. It is made for women who want a wetsuit that performs in the water but still feels elegant, expressive and beautiful to wear.
The Linda has been recognised by The Telegraph as “Best Shorty Women’s Wetsuit”, making it a strong choice for women looking for a stylish, flexible and more elevated shorty wetsuit for swimming, surfing and watersports.
Unlike basic shorty wetsuits, the Linda is designed for real movement across surf, swim, kite, paddle and travel — giving you coverage and light insulation without feeling bulky or restrictive. For a deeper dive, read our Linda Ladies Wetsuit review.

The First Reversible Zipped Wetsuit In the World
The Linda Wetsuit is the first reversible zipped wetsuit in the world.
We wanted to create a responsibly made wetsuit that gives you 2 suits in 1, saving you space in your bag and money in your wallet.
With curiosity and determination, we set out to create something different. A functional work of art that brings together technical performance, creativity, and beauty.
At Vivida, we believe in bridging technical performance with creativity, beauty with utility, and innovation with soul. The Linda Wetsuit embodies this philosophy, delivering two suits in one—effortlessly blending sustainability, luxury, and adventure.
One side features our signature Map of Dreams print—an artistic expression of the Vivida community, philsophy and lifestyle. Flip it inside out for a sleek, duotone graphite grey, offering understated elegance when the moment calls for it.
Innovative. Practical. Beautifully crafted.
One wetsuit, twice the possibilities.
