Why Wave Babe
Designed for women who want timeless, flattering swimwear that feels expensive, without the mark-ups.
The Feel — Confidence You Don’t Have to Think About
It’s hard to explain the feel until you’ve experienced it. That moment when you walk onto the beach or dive into the pool and realize — you’re not adjusting, you’re not wondering how you look, you’re just enjoying the moment. That’s what Wave Babe was built around: creating swimwear that makes you feel completely at ease in your skin. When I design, I think about movement. I think about salt in your hair, walking barefoot after the ocean, the confidence that comes from being present in your body instead of performing in it. Our pieces are meant to support that kind of freedom. Soft where they need to be, sculpting where it counts, and staying put so you can focus on having fun, not adjusting. We wanted “effortless confidence” to be more than a tagline. It had to be engineered into every stitch. That’s why our fabrics feel plush but secure, our straps don’t slide, and our cuts balance coverage with shape. Because when something fits right, you show up differently. Over the years, women have written to us saying things like: “I finally stopped dreading putting on a bikini.” “I forgot I was wearing one — and that’s never happened before.” That’s the energy behind Wave Babe. No overthinking. No pressure to look a certain way. Just the feeling of freedom— sun on your skin, sand under your feet, and swimwear that moves with you, not against you. Luxury isn’t just in how something looks — it’s in how it makes you feel. That feeling of alluring confidence is the real reason we do what we do. Shop The Feel →
Learn moreThe Fabric — What Luxury Really Feels Like (Without the Markup)
It started with a fabric. Not a trend or a color, but a feeling I couldn’t find anywhere: soft enough to live in, dense enough to sculpt, and confidence-giving the second it touched your skin. I called it Dreamy Soft Matte, and it became the start of Wave Babe. I wanted a fabric that worked like your favorite set — the one you wear to yoga or pilates — and then kept going straight to the beach. Versatility and movement. No adjusting. No see-through moments. The first time we sampled it, I knew: buttery to the touch, thick in the right way, and naturally lifting without padding. The kind of “is this magic?” fit that makes you stand a little taller. We double-line our suits so they stay opaque and smooth — even wet. That density isn’t about bulk; it’s about confidence. The fabric hugs where you want support, softens where you want comfort, and never shouts for attention. It just does its job so you can enjoy the day. I design every cut myself, but we bring it to life with a manufacturing team in China that works to the same standards as the high-end designers you already know. “Made in China” is a material reality of modern luxury, and in our case, it’s a strength. Their skills come from generations focused on textiles. They send process updates, fit notes, even little videos from the floor when something turns out beautifully. It’s collaborative, precise, and joyful— and you can feel that in the final piece. Pretty quickly, women started telling us the same thing: “I’ve never felt so confident in a bikini.” “This fabric is like magic — it just…sucks you in.” That’s when I knew Dreamy Soft Matte wasn’t just a base cloth — it was our signature. After a few seasons, we started playing with surface and light. Shimmer for golden hour. Crinkle for stretch, texture, and ease. Shine Luxe and Glossy Satin when you want the suit to catch the sun and feel a little extra. Same Wave Babe fit, different moods — because style should shift with the day, the trip, the playlist. The constant is the standard: sculpting, double-lined, never see-through, made to move with you. Luxury doesn’t need a markup to feel expensive. It needs intention — the right fabric, the right cut, and the right hands making it. That’s the Wave Babe fabric story: considered, wearable, quietly elevated. Shop The Fabric →
Learn moreThe Fit — Because Confidence Starts With How It Feels On Your Body
When I started Wave Babe, I was tired of the same problems every woman talked about but no one actually solved:Designer swimwear that looked beautiful on a model but came with an impossible price tag, and on the other end, cheap fast fashion that never fit right.Loose straps. Paper-thin fabric. Awkward seams. Cuts that didn’t stay in place.I needed to fill this gap. By creating better than designer swimwear and offer them at an obtainable price point.My approach began with one question: How can we make women feel as good in their bikini as they do in their favorite yoga set?That’s why every Wave Babe design begins with versatility.Ties that loosen or lift. Straps that stay exactly where they should. Shapes that sculpt softly around the body instead of cutting in or hanging off.The patterns were first designed for women like me— small band, larger cup, curves that need the structure and smoothing.We refine every piece until it moves like second skin: supportive, comfortable, and effortless.Luxury shouldn’t mean fragile, and comfort doesn't have to mean covered up.As founder and designer, I sketch each cut myself, from the neckline depth to the angle and width of every strap. Every detail is intentional. Not just to stand out from the rest, but to also fit beautifully.That’s what sets our suits apart from mass swimwear.They aren’t made for one body type— they’re designed to adapt, flatter, and feel expensive in motion. The result: a bikini you never have to think about. You walk out, adjust nothing, and feel like yourself.That’s what “The Fit” means to us— confidence that doesn’t need a mirror check.

I have been shopping Wave Babe for about a year now and cannot even begin to express how much I love the fit and fabrics of these suits. There are so many great options and ways to mix match! Plus the price point is great and the quality is outstanding. I always get compliments on my wave babe suits when I wear them!
Blair | S
The most gorgeous colored suit I’ve ever owned!! The material and fit was absolutely perfect and so flattering on!!
Stephanie | L
This bathing suit top is gorgeous. I got the brown shimmery color and I cannot wait to wear it. The inside is soft so the shimmer won't bother the skin. I'm 5'5, 127 lbs, and ordered a L. I normally wear a M but these run a bit small so def size up.
Emma | M
Let me just start by saying that Wave Babe Swimwear is not only cutest, but also the most flattering and most comfortable bikini I have ever purchased! I am so in loveeeee. I needed to size exchange two items and was so amazed at how painless and easy the exchange process was. Customer service was so amazing and quick with their responses. I am forever a permanent patron to Wave Babe! I cannot express how amazing they and their product is!
