Sunseekers – Spring-Summer swimwear

Bathing beauty never goes out of fashion. With year-round sunshine, Australians are early adopters when it comes to new styles, cuts and daring to bare.

IIXIIST is the celebrity-loved brand with a customer list that includes the Kardashians and the Jenners, the Hadids, Mrs Bieber and many more. The brand was an innovator in e-commerce as one of the first Aussie labels to launch via Instagram. According to Designer and Director, Rebeca Klodinsky, she wanted to reconnect with people and inject some humanity back into the business of big-time-fashion. Klodinsky started IIXIIST (formally known as Frankii Swim) at her local markets when she was 23 before quicky transforming it to a global powerhouse earning over $7 million a year and gracing the pages of the world’s leading fashion magazines and blogs. iixiist.com

Matteau (a combination of ‘matt’ (not shiny) and ‘eau’, the French word for water) designs fashion that is humble and without artifice, “timeless, with purpose”.
