Launched in early 2015 by Rupert Tapper and Fiona Ryn, BOWER is a luxury ethical and sustainable British swimwear brand whose aim is to create design-led swimwear with a focus on the now with a nod to the past, influenced by their childhood spent by the sea at Sydney’s Fairy Bower. With components sourced from Italy and France, the final product is constructed at a small, specialized factory in Italy. Their swimwear is created from fabrics produced with ECONYL® yarn and is 100% vegan. They only produce to order, in order to minimize dead stock and wastage, and source all components from European factories that ensure safe and fair working environments for their employees.
