Sustainable Bikini Brands – The Ultimate List
Finding the perfect sustainable bikini can be a challenge. Up until recently, there weren’t many companies that focused on using recycled materials, offsetting their carbon emissions or sustainability in general. Luckily, things are slowly changing so for those hoping to avoid fast fashion and invest in high-quality sustainable bikini brands, you’re in the right place! Below I’ve listed 17 of my fave companies so you’re can pick up a sustainable bikini for your next trip.
Lulu the Label
This Australian Swimwear label has got exactly what you’re looking for! They’ve got bright colours, as well as neutrals like brown and black to cover all bases. Aside from the design, their fabrics are recycled, the garment bag and shipping materials are compostable. They produce small quantities to avoid waste, so everything is limited edition!

You Swim
You Swim might be the first swimwear that’s SEVEN sizes in one! Yeah, you heard me right. While the fabric they use isn’t recycled, it’s sourced in the UK and made to be long-lasting to avoid the landfills and last you for years to come. The packaging is plastic free and their colour selection is amazing. I think the ‘fern’ coloured kini is my fave!
