Dive into Sweaty Betty's SS13 collection and �nd an underwater world inspired by glowing sea anemones, intensely coloured tropical �sh and coral. Influences of the wild beaches of Montauk, the Hamptons and Tarifa take the collection on to land and introduce more of a surf vibe. Find laser cutting, antique washes and scalloped trims in the new ballet-inspired dance collection. Made contemporary with large graphics and washed back fluoros.

Sweaty Betty and English National Ballet have joined forces to create the ultimate dance collection. To the pointe When Sweaty Betty designer, Julia, came up with the idea of making a special edition printed tee featuring an illustration of a ballerina's feet en pointe, ENB immediately let us know the importance of using one of their own dancers for true authenticity. We learnt, when it comes to ballet dancers, you really can tell who's feet are who's just by looking at them in the simplest of positions en pointe. The bone structure and exceptionally high arches as a result of all that pointe work are a real give away. And so the En Pointe T-Shirt was made – a genuine, perfectly professional and personal homage to the outstanding skills of the ENB dancers.

Riley, until recently was a county sprint star, running 100, 200 and 400m sprints in record time. Committed to sport and with a passion for working out, it is no surprise that the Sweaty Betty campaign shoot was Riley's favourite ever job. No standing still and pouting but hard core working out all day long. The fact that it was based in Ibiza this season was also no bad thing!

As an extension of Sweaty Betty's latest collaboration with English National Ballet, the SS13 photoshoot was graced with principal dancer, Begona Cao, who modelled the Dance Statement line. Begona joined English National Ballet in 1997 and is now recognised as one of the brightest stars in ballet today. Begona performed in The Snow Queen, Giselle and The Nutcracker at the London Coliseum at Christmas.

Team GB volleyballer, Zara Dampney joined us in Ibiza to shoot our Spring Summer ‘13 Workout, Run and Beach lines. As her rigorous training demands working out in all of these disciplines, she was the perfect candidate to test out and showcase the collection. Zara is now back into training and hoping to head to Rio, for Olympic action in 2016.

The Mission: Swimwear that can withstand any test in the water.

Fit kit that's tried and tested by professionals has never been truer than in relation to Sweaty Betty's SS13 Swimwear Collection.

Not only was every piece modelled by professional Athlete Zara Dampney, before they even landed on shoot in the Balearics, each swimsuit had been put through its paces in the pool. Racking up over 900 lengths in testing time, our swimwear trailers ranged from weekend surf addicts and daily water babies to our very own triathlete in training, Sweaty Betty Founder Tamara.
