Wallpaper - Bathing Beauties I

Created by Silvia Vassileva, our Bathing Beauties I wallpaper brings a playful 1920s seaside scene to life with expressive, painterly character. The composition captures two women in vintage swimsuits on a sandy shore, one seated on a bright turquoise beach ball while the other kneels beneath a bold red-striped parasol. Soft pastel brushwork in beige, ocean blue, and warm white builds an airy coastal background with a painterly texture reminiscent of oil paint. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made to measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We love this design for spaces where you want to introduce a touch of nostalgic leisure. Because the figurative composition tells a distinct story, it works wonderfully as a feature wall in a bathroom, dressing room, or poolhouse. Giving the mural wallpapers an open, relatively uninterrupted wall allows the beach scene and its open sky to set a relaxed, sunny tone. In a summer house or guest room, placing the design behind a bed or seating area brings warmth and character without overwhelming the layout.

Styling it

To keep the nostalgic, coastal mood grounded, we suggest pairing this design with simple painted furniture or light, weathered wood tones that complement the beach setting.

• Choose seating or storage in soft neutral tones, like off-white or light painted finishes, so the figurative scene remains the central focus.
• Incorporate natural woven materials, such as a braided jute rug or rattan accessories, to echo the sandy coastal texture in the artwork.
• Keep surrounding hardware understated with matte black or aged brass fixtures that lean into the subtle Art Deco feel without competing with the colorful swimsuits.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper centers around a warm palette of sandy beige, sky blue, soft white, vibrant turquoise, and touches of parasol red. To create a balanced look, we recommend drawing from the lighter background tones for adjacent walls, such as warm off-white, light linen, or a gentle sand beige. If you prefer a bolder contrast, deeper navy blue or a subtle terracotta accent on trim, cushions, or cabinetry will pick up the warm swimsuit and parasol accents naturally.
