Redefining Swimwear: The Science Behind Confidence
In today’s fashion landscape, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by fleeting trends and impossible beauty standards. But at Sun Patrol Swimwear, we believe true style isn’t about fitting in, it’s about standing out, authentically and confidently.
Our mission goes beyond bikinis. We’re here to redefine what it means to feel good in your swimwear. We create pieces that empower women to feel confident, sexy, and strong...no matter their shape, size, or stage of life. Because at the heart of it, we believe that you don’t wear the bikini, the bikini wears you.
Designing for Anybody and Any Body
From the start, our vision has been clear: swimwear should never make you feel intimidated or uncomfortable. That’s why every Sun Patrol piece is designed with a deep commitment to fit, comfort, and elegance. We conduct extensive fit testing on real, diverse bodies, not just industry models, because we believe that real women deserve real representation.
Our collections merge glamour with function, luxurious enough to turn heads, yet comfortable enough to actually live in. Whether you're walking the shoreline, lounging by the pool, or simply enjoying your own skin, our swimwear is made to enhance how you feel, not just how you look.
Inspired by the Sea, Designed from the Soul
Sun Patrol’s founder, Kerri Hayes, was born on the Mediterranean island of Malta—an oasis of golden beaches, crystal waters, and vibrant sunsets. Her roots and travels have deeply shaped the aesthetic of the brand: tropical pastels, ocean blues, and silhouettes that echo the effortless rhythm of the sea.
Each piece tells a story, of island days, sunlit escapes, and the beauty of feeling at home in your body.
Fashion with a Future: Our Sustainability Commitment
As creators, we carry a responsibility, not only to our customers but to the planet we call home. Sun Patrol Swimwear proudly uses recyclable fabrics and environmentally conscious manufacturing techniques to ensure our footprint is as elegant as our designs.
Sustainability isn’t a buzzword, it’s a promise. A promise to protect the earth’s natural beauty, so generations to come can enjoy the same golden sands and clear waters that inspired our first collection.
More Than a Brand We Are On A Mission
At Sun Patrol, we believe body confidence isn't about how you look, it's about how you feel. And that feeling comes from knowing you’re supported by a brand rooted in values:
-
Community: Celebrating elegance, grace, and strength in women everywhere
-
Passion: Elevating women through thoughtful design and honest storytelling
-
Accountability: Standing by our product and our customers with care

-

We’re not just designing swimwear. We’re building a culture of confidence, sustainability, and grace.
