Kikki-G Swimwear Featured in Forbes, Elle in Best Luxury Swimwear Brands of 2026 and more


As Seen In: ELLE, Forbes and More

Over the past few months, Kikki-G has been featured in a number of leading fashion publications — something that feels both incredibly exciting and, honestly, a little surreal.

One of the standout moments was being included in ELLE’s edit of the Best Swimwear Brands to Shop in 2026, where we were also named Best for Timeless Design. To see the brand recognised in that way, for something so central to what I set out to create, meant a great deal.

We were also featured in HELLO!’s round-up of the most flattering bikini brands this summer, included in SheerLuxe’s Gold Hot List: The Swimwear Edit, where Kikki-G was described as blending modern elegance with sustainable design and in Citizen Femme in their feature 15 Best Swimsuits to Buy Now

It has been equally special to see Kikki-G on the radar of Country & Town House and to be included in Forbes in a piece exploring luxury and sustainability.

It was indeed humbling for our Resort ‘26 collection to be described by HUMBLE Magazine as:

“An exercise in restraint that feels genuinely modern. It takes the brand’s core promise — timeless, flattering swimwear with sustainability at its centre — and sharpens it into something more cinematic. Think St Barth’s ease filtered through Parisian polish, Malibu sunlight, and the kind of wardrobe confidence that comes from pieces designed to be worn for years, not a single holiday.”

That idea — of creating something timeless, flattering, and designed to be worn for years — has always been at the heart of Kikki-G.

Why Kikki-G Is Gaining Attention

I started Kikki-G because I couldn’t find swimwear that felt quite right — pieces that balanced style, comfort, and longevity without feeling driven by trends.

As the swimwear market has become increasingly fast-paced and trend-led, I think there is a growing desire for something more considered. Pieces that feel elevated, effortless, and designed to last beyond a single season.

At Kikki-G, everything begins with a few core principles:

  • Timeless, non trend-led design
  • Flattering silhouettes that achieve a precise balance of coverage — never too much, never too little
  • Premium fabrics that combine softness with structure and support
  • An understated, elevated aesthetic inspired by St Barth’s

Inspired by St Barth’s

Living in St Barth’s had a huge influence on how I think about swimwear.

There’s a unique energy there — a mix of French nonchalance and a relaxed Caribbean lifestyle — where everything feels effortless, but nothing is accidental.

That influence runs through every piece:

  • Clean, minimal lines
  • Refined, flattering colour palettes
  • Swimwear designed to move seamlessly from beach to resort

The intention is always to create pieces that feel as natural to wear as they are considered in their design.

A Different Approach to Luxury Swimwear

I believe more and more women are moving away from trend-driven purchases and towards pieces they can rely on — swimwear that feels good, fits beautifully, and lasts.

Kikki-G is my answer to that.

Rather than following trends, the focus is on fit, fabric, and form — creating swimwear that offers both confidence and ease.
