Jayda Cheaves Apologizes For Seemingly Stolen Swimsuit Design

Earlier this week, Jayda Cheaves took to Instagram to show off a new Waydamin swimsuit, posing in the bright orange flower-inspired bikini. Almost immediately, X user @Chelseaaaah_ accused her of stealing the design from the small Black woman-owned swimwear company Eaunoir Swim. She also pointed out that Jayda was paid to model the brand’s Flower Bomb design in 2020.

“It’s a shame that my friend worked so had for business for years just for JAYDA WAYDA TO STEAL HER WHOLE S*** after she was PAID to wear and post my friend’s bikini!!! WEIRDO FLEX,” she wrote. “You really see stuff like this happen all the time with influencers stealing designs from black owned businesses but this is hitting different. My friend @imonlycai literally makes each swimsuit BY HAND and here go Jayda stealing it and sending it to CHINA for production!!”

Jayda Cheaves Admits Eaunoir Swim’s Design Was On Her Mood Board

In response, Cheaves took to her Instagram Story, revealing that she had taken inspiration from the design. “Oh it’s NO shade. The girl I promoted back in 2020 was on the mood board for this summer’s swim,” she wrote. “That’s what fashion is about remaking and recreating. It’s no shade at all. I never take offense when I’m on somebody’s mood board, it’s how it go.” Her response didn’t go over well with fans, and she went on to DM Eaunoir Swim on Instagram to apologize and reveal she wouldn’t be selling the bikinis.

“I definitely understand how this made you feel because I’ve been a victim of things like this before & I’d hate to not go about this the right way without taking the accountability as a Black female business owner as well,” she explained. “Maybe one day we can collaborate on something even hotter. Xoxo, sorry again.” What do you think of Jayda Wayda apologizing for seemingly stealing a swimsuit design?

Rihanna Files Trademark For Swimwear

Rihanna has filed a trademark to be used in connection with sunglasses & swimwear. The chosen wordmark in the filing is “RIRI.” The motion also describes the swimwear line as being for a brand that includes coats, neckwear, belts, and shoes.

The move comes as the latest expansion for the singer who trademarked the brand name “Fenty Kids” back in January. At the time, that motion noted the sale of “infant wear, swimwear, hats, underwear, footwear, leggings, socks.” That choice came after Rihanna welcomed her own child into the world with A$AP Rocky. Speaking with Elle for an interview, earlier this month, she admitted that motherhood has inspired her work. “Becoming a mother has only added to the inspiration in my life. I’ve had to find the balance between an efficient routine that maximizes precious ‘me’ time and full glam, because I really enjoy that colorful creative process,” she told the outlet.

Rihanna previously hinted at expanding Savage X Fenty to include a kids line in November 2022. “We didn’t get there yet but it’s something that I might do. We’ll see,” she told Vogue. “I would have so much fun with that. Anything in miniature is just so cute.”

As for music, there have been rumors about Rihanna releasing a new album at some point this year and possibly touring in promotion of it. Her partner, A$AP Rocky, confirmed that Rihanna has been working on new music during an interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1 in January. “Yeah, I’m super excited,” he said of Rihanna’s Super Bowl Halftime performance. “This is as huge. This is incredible. I’m so glad that my lady’s back making music again and whatnot, and getting back out there.” Rihanna has kept quieter about her plans for another album.
