Miami-based swimwear brand DivinoSeas is being called out over their pricey 'ROSA' bikini that they claim is inspired by the civil rights icon.

Miami-based swimwear brand DivinoSeas is being called out over their pricey "ROSA" bikini that they claim is inspired by civil rights icon Rosa Parks.

Parks, a civil rights icon who, in 1955, refused to give up her bus seat to a white man and sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott protesting segregated seating on public transportation.


Pauli Mia, lead singer of the American band Twin Princess, spotted the bikini description and shared screenshots on X, writing:

"Can I show you guys something?"

You can see the bikini top in question below.

The product description is also a tone-deaf piece of art:

"Inspired by the woman whose righteous rebellion against apartheid style segregation in the United States sparked the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s. In honor of Rosa Parks, DivinoSeas has included this artesian inspired salute to haute couture in the domain of luxury swimwear."
"ROSA is meticulously designed with divinity in the details. Every element in the constellation of her composition contributes to the sets’ seductive yet stately gravitas. Available in sea salt and light pink."

You can see it below.

People quickly dragged the company—and the comments were hilarious.

Oddly, the swimwear company also sells a bikini top inspired by former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, who is credited as the first modern First Lady and later served as a United States Delegate to the United Nations General Assembly, designing the landmark the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

You can see its top below.

The product description for this equally cringey item states that Roosevelt "controversially condemned fascist dictatorships at a politically inopportune time" and that the "uniquely textured Legacy Line item likewise goes against the grain of the zeitgeist while embracing the truth through body positivity via comfort and quality."

Whether it's his Iran War, his continuing saga with the Epstein files, his utter failure to keep any of his campaign promises that they banked on helping them, or the abject incompetence of his hand-picked personnel, some members of MAGA are distancing themselves from the cult.

Trump Ripped For Somehow Making His 'Happy Mother's Day' Post All About Himself Without Any Mention Of Melania

President Donald Trump was criticized after he "honored" mothers on Mother's Day by attacking Democrats in a self-absorbed post on Truth Social, never mentioning his wife, First Lady Melania, who is the mother of his youngest son Barron.

Instead of acknowledging her and mothers around the country, Trump gloated about the economy and accused critics of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome," targeting Democrats and Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve Chair he's been trying to push out of his administration.

Zach Galifianakis Expertly Lays Into Comedians Who Refuse To 'Challenge' Trump When He's A Guest On Their Podcasts

Actor and comedian Zach Galifianakis called out comedians who have had President Donald Trump on their podcasts and didn't "challenge" him, noting that they've effectively abdicated their role by not making jokes at Trump's expense or pushing back against things he says.

Galifianakis made that argument during a recent episode of Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend, where host Conan O'Brien remarked that few, if any, people have challenged a sitting president the way Galifianakis did when he interviewed then-President Barack Obama in 2014 on his satirical series Between Two Ferns.
