By 2050, our seas may contain more garbage than fish. 8 million tons of waste end up in our seas every single year. 640 thousand tons of fishing nets are abandoned at the bottom of the ocean. We use 700 plastic bags a year per person. Less than 1% is recycled. Finding solutions for a more sustainable world should always be one of our main priorities, and we can do so by choosing responsible and ethical fashion brands. In this article, we decided to talk specifically about sea fashion. Here are 5 sustainable swimsuits brands you need to check out to help clean up the oceans!

Abby Rose is an independent Australian swimwear label. With its timeless look, this brand wants to be comfortably versatile and feminine at the same time.

Ocean Zen is another brand of cute and stylish swimwear created using sustainable, recycled and extremely soft fabrics. One strict rule of thumb at OceanZen is that no plastic packaging will be used in the transportation of garments, nor branded packaging to customers. And once the garment is ready, they pack it in compostable packaging, and ship using a 100% carbon-neutral delivery service. Moreover, they use the wasted fabric and off-cuts to make scrunchies!
Let’s talk about Julienne, an eco-friendly, UV protective, and highly resistant to chlorine, suntan creams, and oils, swimwear brand! The creators fully integrated sustainability into their strategy. Their Swimwear is made using Econ regenerated nylon made from abandoned fishing nets and Repreve made from recycled plastic bottles.
