We are inspired by contemporary Australian style and a passion for excellence. Founded by Dale McCarthy, we are a majority female owned and run business based in Sydney. We create elegant, sophisticated swimwear & apparel using only the finest quality, sustainably produced fabrics and premium local craftsmanship.

Our swimwear is now recognized worldwide for its emphasis on pared-back, sleek silhouettes that use our three, technically advanced swim base-cloths that deliver superior performance to optimize look, fit, feel and longevity. 

We are proud to be stocked around the world by prestigious retailers including David Jones in Australia, Harrods in London, Harvey Nichols in the Middle East, Saks & Goop in the USA, Moda Operandi and Net-a-porter online.

We have an ongoing commitment to uncompromising quality, ethics and sustainability. Every fabric is consciously sourced for sustainable certification. Each piece is painstakingly fitted and refitted to perfect its cut. Each trim is hand selected or custom made. Each garment is expertly crafted in limited runs.

Our solemn wish is that when our customers wear BONDI BORN it brings them joy, through body confidence, an elevated sense of style and the knowledge that by buying BONDI BORN they are doing what's best for people and planet.

Our mission statement is “To empower and inspire the summer style of women all over the world, while never compromising on quality, people or planet.”

To that end, we have become certified as a B Corporation and we are Climate Neutral Certified.
