Deakin and Blue create simple designs made to flatter the female body, regardless of shape or size. Their cuts are supportive and sporty enough to swim a marathon in, but stylish enough to pack for a holiday in the sun. Don’t forget to check their tag either! Deakin and Blue have teamed up with Breast Cancer Awareness Charity, CoppaFeel!, to remind women of the signs and symptoms of Breast Cancer with every swimsuit tag!

Flattering Style with a Sustainable Edge
The Deakin and Blue collection is made entirely from ECONYL® - a 100% regenerated nylon fibre made from fishnets and other nylon waste. The high-quality fabric is twice as resistant to chlorine, sun cream and oil than standard Lycra®, so you know these items are made to last.
“As a brand we feel a responsibility to help women feel fantastic about their bodies and we believe the language we use is really important in that process.” -Rosie Cook, Founder

Why We Love Them
Cycled
Deakin and Blue swimwear uses a sustainable techno-fabric made with ECONYL®, which is a 100% regenerated fibre made from used consumer materials such as old fishing nets. In a circular economy waste is not wasted. Instead used materials such as fishing nets can begin a new lease of life as a swimsuit. Fabric made from ECONYL® yarn is twice as resistant to UV rays, chlorine and sea water as standard Lycra®.
Eco-Conscious
Deakin and Blue only works with OEKO-TEX® certified production and supply partners that share their values for ethical and sustainable production. Their London production partner recycles and reuses any unused fabric to limit their textile waste and the fabrics used by Deakin and Blue are made from recycled and regenerated consumer waste, such as fishing nets. Deakin and Blue have also proactively removed plastic from every stage of their production and packaging offering.This reduces pollution whilst also limiting the demand for virgin materials.
Made In Europe
Deakin and Blue is proud to manufacture in London at a production facility that shares their values for sustainable and ethical production.
