The girl behind the brand

Hi! My name is Hanako and I’m the owner, designer, seamstress, and CEO of Mizuchi Swimwear LLC. 11 years ago, Mizuchi Swimwear was born from the desire to own designer bikinis that I couldn’t afford at the time. Since I already knew how to sew and crochet, I taught myself to replicate a very popular design by a famous (and expensive) brand and my love for making swimwear took off!

Throughout the years, I have made sustainability my number one priority for my brand. I am a tree hugger, nature-lover, ocean fanatic. Therefore, I couldn’t be just another company contributing to global warming and ocean pollution. That’s why I love focusing on handmade, small batch, made-to-order styles of production. There’s no waste, no pollution, no unethical work environments, just plain and simple handmade creation like the olden days!

I’ve been making and selling my handmade swimwear for more than a decade now and I hope I get to do it for many more! Thank you to all my amazing customers who keep coming back for more of my bikinis, I am forever grateful.
