Each pattern begins as an original hand-painted artwork by artist Ashley Ware and is created exclusively for Suki.
Ashley is an incredibly talented artist and also happens to be my best friend. She created Suki's branding and visual identity and has been part of this dream since day one. The aesthetic, the colours, the tiny details and the feeling behind the brand are things we've obsessed over together from the very beginning.
From tiny cherries and little hearts to playful florals, her artwork captures the feeling we're always chasing at Suki - childhood, nostalgia and long days by the water. The kinds of details children fall in love with and families remember years later.
Every pattern is developed slowly and intentionally to feel distinctly Suki: playful, timeless and a little nostalgic.
Because the smallest details are often the ones we remember most.
Every Suki print starts life as a painting.
What begins as brushstrokes on paper is carefully developed into a pattern designed to become part of a collection. Tiny details are adjusted, colours are perfected and every element is considered until it feels just right.
It's a slower, more hands-on process, but one that makes every print feel unmistakably Suki.
Here is Ashley painting our Suki 'Little Raspberry' pattern for Drop 2 - coming soon!
Every print begins as an original watercolour artwork created exclusively for Suki.
Produced in limited quantities,
rather than mass-produced collections.
Classic motifs, thoughtful details and colours designed to stand the test of time.
Patterns are often the first thing children notice.
A favourite colour. Tiny cherries. Little hearts. Little olives. The details that make them reach for the same swimsuit again and again.
We believe those details deserve just as much thought as the fabric, fit and finish. That's why every pattern is created exclusively for Suki and developed with longevity in mind.
