Affordable, Ethical Bikinis Designed and Made in Los Angeles

Introducing Jess and Her New Swimwear Line

Jess is an up-and-coming swimwear designer based in Los Angeles. She has a passion for creating high quality, comfortable bikinis and one-piece suits. Her new swimwear line features unique cuts and vibrant colors that are perfect for the beach or pool.

Jess's Inspiration for Starting Her Own Swimwear Brand

Jess has always loved swimming and the beach lifestyle associated with Southern California. She grew up going to the beach regularly and was always on the hunt for cute, flattering swimsuits. However, she struggled to find bathing suits that fit her body type properly. This sparked the idea to launch her own swimwear line catered towards women of all shapes and sizes.

After studying fashion design in school and working for a few major swimsuit companies, Jess had the skills and experience necessary to go off on her own. She wanted to create a line of quality bikinis and one-piece bathing suits made ethically right in Los Angeles. Her goal was to make stylish, comfortable swimwear that empowers women to feel confident at an affordable price point.

Sourcing Ethical Materials and Manufacturing Locally

From the start, it was important to Jess to source ethical, environmentally friendly fabrics for her suits. The vast majority of her materials and trims are either upcycled or made from recycled content. This reduces waste and minimizes the overall carbon footprint of the manufacturing process.

Jess also strongly believes in transparency throughout the supply chain and providing fair wages to workers. That's why all Jess swimwear pieces are sewn locally right in Los Angeles. Jess works closely alongside her small team of expert sewers and pattern makers to bring her designs to life. Many employees have worked in the LA garment industry for decades and take great pride in their craftsmanship.

Signature Styles in Jess's Swimwear Line

The Jess swimwear line features both classic silhouettes and trendy cuts perfect for the beach or poolside. Best sellers include the scoop neck bikini top and high waisted bottoms. These suits are designed to be flattering, provide comfortable coverage, and make women feel amazing wearing them.

Vibrant colors and unique prints are another signature style element of Jess's collection. Expect to see bright sherbet hues, marbled color blocking, and lively floral patterns. The prints are either custom designed in-house or ethically sourced from textile partners. Jess also utilizes upcycled fabric scraps to create unexpected color pairings and design details.

Modeling the Suits in Sunny Los Angeles

To showcase her suits in an authentic way, Jess models all the designs herself outdoors in iconic Los Angeles locations. The swimwear line is meant to embody the laidback, beachy vibe that LA is so well-known for worldwide. Shooting in natural sunlight also allows the colors and prints to shine.

Some recognizable backdrop spots have included Venice Beach, Runyon Canyon, and Griffith Observatory. Jess also hosts seasonal photoshoots rooftop at the Jess swimwear downtown LA garment district headquarters. These #thatsLA images spotlight both the suits and creators behind them in a uniquely California way.
