Why I Created This Brand

After having a melanoma removed in my thirties, I take sun protection seriously.

But in protecting my skin, I was tired of choosing between sun safety or style. Coverage or confidence. Practical or cool.

Why were we only being offered tight, clingy, triathlon-esque tops - or worse, frumpy cuts with floral prints that felt dated and Mumsy?

I wanted something that looked as cool as my favourite streetwear. Something I could wear from the beach to coffee. On a paddle board or at school pick up. From ocean swims to resort holidays.

So I built it. Now we're redefining what sun protection looks like.

Relaxed. Fun. Elevated. Thoughtfully made.

Premium Fabrics. Australian rated UPF50+. Sustainable production. Australian made.

We don't compromise on quality or style.

I designed our garments for women like me - women who love the sun, but refuse to sacrifice their style to protect themselves.

We choose quality over clutter. We want feel good, versatile pieces.

Thank you for being here and supporting my mission to make sun protection fashion forward and fun.

Warmly,
