Collection: URCHIN Womens Swimwear

Claim the sun, master the water, and own your silhouette. The URCHIN and DARK URCHIN Women’s Swimwear Collection is an elite fusion of high-performance utility and vibrant counter-culture aesthetic—offering an exclusive range of premium bikini sets, separates, active rash guards, and sleek one-piece swimsuits engineered for those who refuse to follow the herd.

My deep, intuitive understanding of how swimwear must drape, conform, and contour the moving female form was forged through decades at the peak of the fashion and athletic industries. Having trained as a Sculptor at art college, I mastered the three-dimensional weight and balance of form, which led me to practice intensive life drawing at the prestigious Royal Academy in London. This gave me direct, classical training in the raw reality of human anatomy, structural proportion, and physical movement.

Later, working globally as an International Fashion Model and training as a Professional Photographer, I spent years on or directing shoots on coastal sets. I know exactly how fabric catches the light, how a silhouette drapes across a figure, and how to create unforgettable looks that command a space from every angle.

This collection is a fluid, boundaryless conversation between the shadow and the light, allowing you to curate your presence on the shoreline or by the pool:

•Urchin Swimwear: Imbued with our core philosophy of metta (loving-kindness) and inspired by the serene, sun-drenched coastal landscapes and free-spirited bohemian textures of Ibiza. Think vibrant, sun-soaked prints and hand-painted warmth built for endless summer days.

•Dark Urchin Swimwear: For when you want to bring an uncompromising alternative edge to the water. Rooted in the moody, nocturnal counter-culture history of Soho’s underground punk, goth, and psychobilly movements, this line delivers dark glamour, striking iconography, and a razor-thin subversive bite straight to the beach.

Engineered by a Surfer: Built for the ElementsThis collection is hardwired into a lifetime of high-performance action across the changing elements. I have spent my life pushing my body to its absolute limits—from catching raw coastal breaks surfing in the 1990s, to charging down mountain faces skiing and snowboarding, right up to teaching Yoga, Tai Chi, and Wing Chun Kung Fu globally for three decades. I know exactly how a garment must perform when crashing through surf or moving under intense heat.

Because every body is a unique work of art, our bikinis are sold as separates so you can select your perfect, individual sizing for tops and bottoms.

•The Cross-Over Tribe:

Mix and match your look with our unisex board shorts and swim trunks—shared directly with our Men's athletic line—and layer on our vintage-style Ibiza Sun Splash tees or heavy mid-century shirts for the ultimate effortless, after-beach sunset look.

Authentic Hand-Crafted Artistry: 100% AI-FreeUnlike modern mass-produced fast fashion generated by sterile algorithms, every intricate print, radiant motif, and dark subversive layout carries real human memory. Hand-drawn with ink, hand-painted with raw intent, or physically hand-tie-dyed freehand in my studio, the artwork is digitized directly from the physical source. Strictly AI-free—now, and forever. Crafted via mindful print-on-demand production using premium, durable materials to minimize mass-market textile waste.
