Social media users are sounding as a Florida-based swimsuit company sells out of a bikini named after Rosa Parks. The brand also sells suits to 'honor' other notable figures.

Users on social media are sounding off about a swimsuit brand selling a string bikini to 'honor' American civil rights activist Rosa Parks. Divinoseas, a clothing label based in Miami, Florida, listed the two-piece bikini along with a description that says the piece was 'inspired by the woman whose righteous rebellion against apartheid style segregation in the United States sparked the civil rights movement of the 1960s.' The description also mentions Parks' name.

The ruched bikini bottoms have been marked down from $72 to $36. '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,' the bikini's product description says. The bathing suit top is currently sold out in all sizes while the bottoms are only available in size large, according to the company's website.

On its website, Divinoseas' mission says it 'creates employment opportunities to women with low resources in Guatemala, whose skilled embroidery work gives special meaning to our labels which say: ‘handmade.’' 'Our mission is to help as many people as possible; so that they may fulfill their dreams—and experience G-D’s love.
