BONDI BORN

Sydney-based BONDI BORN epitomizes sun-soaked elegance with upscale swimwear and minimalist womenswear. Since 2015, founder Dale McCarthy and creative director Karla Clarke have embedded sustainable values into their production processes. Local seamstresses work with ethically sourced fabrics to craft the brand’s refined warm-weather collections—all made for-and-by women. Three technical in-house textiles—Sculpteur™, Singuleur®, and Embodee™—provide comfort and support in long-lasting garments with minimal environmental impact. Monochrome bikinis, one-pieces, and Japanese linen dresses and separates are rendered in timeless cuts with flattering hems. Enduring color palettes transcend seasonal trends: muted hues contrast with accent colors that evoke summer beachside sunsets. Inspired by its warm-weathered home base, BONDI BORN designs sustainable summer-centric apparel with sophisticated charm.
