Hello Honeys!
Mahalo Swim has been a dream in the making for as long as I can remember. For years I would go in to my bikini basket and I never truly fell in love with any of them and just knew that I wanted to someday design my very own - and now we are here. The name is derived from Hawaiian language, meaning "thankyou". Hawaii has always held a special place in my heart since being a little girl. I have always been a water baby, exploring beaches and chasing clear water, only now I can do it all wearing my very own designs.
I started Mahalo not only because it was my dream, but to be able to design unique swimwear that was different to mainstream designs in the present industry. So with this, I spent months perfecting the dream styles, sketches, measurements and details. I worked closely with my textile designer to create a stunning print that complimented the styles seamlessly.
Sourcing the right fabrics was also a major point for me, but also ensuring that it was sustainable. I found the perfect fabric that was made from recycled materials such as fishing nets, whilst remaining premium luxe quality. From here, it was just a matter of handing my heart and soul over to my gorgeous team of manufacturers in Bali, Indonesia, where they brought my dream to life. I am so lucky to already be able to have a great team of textile designers, graphic designers, creatives, manufacturers and of course - everyone who has supported me day in and day out since the beginning.
Mahalo Swim focuses on creating stunning designs for your tropical days, whilst being inclusive of body diversity and remaining sustainable. Every body is a bikini body and every body is equal. At Mahalo, we want to make sure you believe that and feel that when wearing our swim. In terms of sustainability, not only are our fabrics made from recycled materials but so is our packaging. The great thing about our packaging is that a donation from our order is contributed to reforestation as well as when you make a purchase with us, we personally donate to Worldwide Ocean Conservation.
Mahalo is an exclusive brand with limited collections and prints. This is a sustainable manufacturing process to ensure minimal wastage, which also means you get to love each design/print/collection so much more!
We are so happy to finally be available for you all to wear and we can not wait to show you what is to come. Thank you all for the support so far, we appreciate every little bit.
Oceans of love,
MAHALO SWIM X
