ethical sustainable swimwear

hi angels

Introduction: BBcierva is a eco swimwear brand that uses ECONYL, a recycled nylon from discarded fishing nets.

The story: I started BBcierva in 2020 after realising most swimwear companies outsource their labour & factories to countries with cheaper costs and labour and do not use sustainable materials. I looked around and couldn’t find a brand that resonated with me that was made locally ,eco friendly and affordable so I created BBcierva. BB was inspired by a multitude of influences. Common themes that support bb are sustainability, nature, spirituality, space and science.

The collections feature designs that are hand crafted for the perfect fit, and colours that will inspire positivity. Each bikini is handmade by me in the UK and each season captures a theme of colours, that relate to specific ideas. The first season features shades of blue and were named after the the lost city/continent of Atlantis, Lemuria and the flying island Laputa.

Sustainability 💧🌍

8 million tonnes of waste are discarded in our oceans & 640 thousand tons of fishing nets are abandoned at the bottom of the ocean EVERY YEAR.

BBcierva is committed to working with high end recycled fabrics made from ECONYL: a 100% regenerated nylon yarn derived from discarded fishing nets and other textile waste. This fabric can be recycled infinitely without losing quality, supporting a circular fashion industry. Using regenerated nylon also helps to clean the seas where entanglement in abandoned nets causes the deaths of many thousands of whales, dolphins and other marine life every year.

Packaging:

BB is also dedicated to recycled and biodegradable packaging. Each step of packaging the bikinis has been carefully chosen to ensure sustainability. More details are on the website if you wish to look further.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!! <3
