Koru Swimwear offers women with a sense of environmental responsibility, sustainable fashion-forward trends in swimwear, apparel and accessories. Designers, Julie Brockmeyer Stine and April Slater, wanted to incorporate eco-friendly fabrics and responsible textile manufacturing processes to swimwear for both sport and leisure. Julie Brockmeyer Stine drew inspiration from her New Zealand roots to create the Koru Swimwear brand. Because New Zealand is considered to be one of the most environmentally responsible countries on the planet, everything that goes into the production of this line is with an eco-minded approach - from the recycled hangtags, to the recycled fabric made from items such as discarded carpet fluff and fishing nets, to the printing process without the use of water. Koru Swimwear sells retail online and to wholesale retailers.
