Our Story
The little things
The things we love as children stay with us. When I was little, I had a swimsuit I absolutely loved. I still remember exactly how it made me feel. That's me in the middle, wearing the swimsuit, so happy.
Years later, while searching for my daughter's first swimsuit, I realised I wasn't really searching for swimwear at all. I was searching for that same feeling. Beautiful, timeless pieces that felt a little harder to find - and impossible to forget.
That's how Suki began.

Built around family
Suki was created while I was pregnant with my youngest daughter, Sophia, with Lucie by my side. We launched just two weeks before Sophia was born, and the brand has grown alongside our family ever since.
It was built between nap times, after bedtime, and around family life, with amazing support from the people I love most.
Our pieces are named after my girls, and the children of the friends who've supported me from the very beginning. It makes me so happy knowing they'll always be part of Suki too.
Made with intention
Designed in New Zealand, every Suki print begins as a hand-painted watercolour by my incredibly talented best friend and artist, Ashley Ware.
From the artwork to the fabrics, every detail is considered with care. We produce in intentionally small batches, giving us the time to create pieces that feel truly special.
Because the things we remember from childhood are worth making beautifully.
