Fashion News Fall '10: Spa Covers Go Poofy

Fashion Lightening Strikes The Hot Tub Cover Industry

True to the counter culture of design essence, flat foam is out and fluffy form and function is in on all the best spas this year.

Backyard Fashionistas are raving about the Washington based label that went “far beyond conventional blasé gray and boring brown” for fall 2010 and embraced the “Full depth of color palette” in the private showings in computer monitors across the country.

“I’m always pushing our aesthetic more into to the bold,  full color edge of  spa cover fashion,” explained Geoff Slygur, who designs the collection.  “But I wanted to explore the limits of combinations of tones that compliment the garden setting of the spa as well as celebrate the focus that the hot tub deserves.”

Geoff said that the spa demands to be thought of in romantic terms, and the expression of that emotion over tradition was the reason for the new collection.

“The typical brown and gray spa covers are just so 1950, so boring. It is time to show off your personal therapy station,” says Geoff.  “Quit treating that health club in a box like another place to stack crap!”

The SpaCap.com label dares to embrace bold colors and combinations available in designer outdoor fabrics.  

“Why settle for brown, when you can have Heather Beige, Capri blue, Gingko green or Tuscan?” Geoff continues, “We’re in the space age, your hot tub should be visible to the Google Earth satellite!”

The dome shaped hot tub covers combine fashion as well as function according both great insulation, long lasting usability and vintage curves.  The result, Barbarella meets Mars Mission.  

Spa Covers new hipster-chic look sets conventional flat foam on the trash heap.  Today’s “in crowd” hot tubs are sporting a rogue style.
