5 out of 5 starsI’m in love with my swimsuit! I also got the scrunched Brazilian bottoms to match. My items shipped out super fast as well. They both fit like a dream, most comfortable swimsuit I’ve ever owned. Love that it’s organic, would love to get another in a different color. Would recommend to anyone looking for quality organic~wear!

5 out of 5 starsSuper cute And very comfortable. Love wearing this. Once wet it is a bit see through but it’s white with no liner so that is to be expected.

5 out of 5 starsThese are incredibly comfortable and very well made. Yesterday I wore them to a park by the beach not sure if me and my kids would be swimming or not after we played and I forgot they weren’t underwear they were so comfy. They fit perfectly when dry but when wet they stretch out a bit so I might try a smaller size next time. I am 39in full hip measurement, I got a large.

5 out of 5 starsVery Soft! Gets a little bigger when wet and takes a little longer to dry, but well worth the trade for how comfortable and natural the fabric feels. It has a wholesome and sexy aesthetic.

5 out of 5 starsMy beautiful new swim suit arrived and I am beyond happy. It looks and feels like it was custom made for me! By far the most flattering and most comfortable suit I have ever worn, and I have been an ocean baby all of my life, so that is really saying something. The craftsmanship, attention to detail, and quality construction are outstanding. Organic and natural materials make this bikini truly special. It is so satisfying to know that each time I enjoy swimming in the sea and wild streams I am not bringing plastic micro fibers into the ecosystem. Thank you!

Sara's vintage suitcase filled with bikinis on the beach.
Sewin' The Dream on Maui
In 2010, Sara quit her architecture job in Colorado and moved to Maui to start her own handmade clothing company. Sara desired to be her own boss, have a positive influence on the fashion industry, live in tropical paradise and have the freedom to travel both for fabric and inspiration!
With a background in drafting, sustainable building, a lifetime of hobby sewing and one job back in the day for a designer named Angela Keslar (who was actually on Project Runway!), Sara learned how to make her own patterns and generally figure things out as she went with the aid of books and the internet. The swimwear as a focus was unplanned, but unfolded naturally being on Maui.
Everything at INDIE ATTIRE is handmade by Sara with extraordinary attention to detail. These clothes are built to last and worth the investment. INDIE ATTIRE swimwear will outlast other suits due to the double layer of swimwear fabric, no cheap mesh lining! This not only provides extreme durability, it also insures extra support and comfort. Due to construction techniques and superior materials, you simply cannot find a suit made like these anywhere else in the world.
All fabric except the spandex for the swimwear is sustainably sourced and includes: hemp, hemp/silk blends and upcycled fabrics of all sorts.
