Twice a year, Camilla Franks heads off on a new global adventure to seek out inspiration for her next limited edition collection, immersing herself completely in each new place and in all its expressions: textiles, music, architecture, art, food, culture and daily life.
 
With over 40,000 images, countless hours of footage, and a heart full of stories from her global wanderings, Camilla returns to Sydney to start the design process with her collective of in-house artists and designers.

 

SUSTAINABLE SWIMWEAR
Nearly all our swimwear is lovingly handcrafted using Econyl®, a sustainable premium Italian textile, recycled from regenerated materials salvaged from our oceans. Its beauty lies in its ability to be recycled, remoulded and ultimately reused time and time again. An infinitely recyclable product that keeps our planet looking beautiful, while opening the door to a circular fashion sphere.

Our mens boardshorts are all made from a polyester that is made from post-consumer waste, PET bottles predominantly, a textile approved by the Global Recycled Standard. Our priority with synthetic fibres is that wherever possible we choose regenerated or recycled versions. Recycled nylon and polyester are well embedded into our kids, mens and womens swimwear.

NATURAL FIBRES
Natural fibres make up over 80% of our fibre usage. Silk will always be our main love, but there are many other beautiful fibres we love to explore. We measure and analyse our fabric and material usage to guide us to prioritise the fabrics that have the lowest impact on the planet and people.

We know that choosing organic cotton is a more sustainable solution, it is better on the soil, waterways and the farmers. We also love using linen, its breathable, durable, soft against the body, and prints beautifully. It is a natural renewable and biodegradable fibre we look forward to using more and more.
