Our Story

Kawakawa is a boutique swimwear brand created to celebrate women, nature, and the rituals of self-care.

Inspired by the sacred Kawakawa leaf from Aotearoa — known for its healing energy, our bikinis are designed for women who value confidence, beauty, comfort, and a lifestyle connected to nature and well-being.

At Kawakawa, we believe in slow rituals that remind you to come back to yourself. In celebrating the wild, the soft, and the strong, all at once.

Each piece is a symbol of freedom. A ritual you wear. A reminder that you belong to nature, to yourself, and to our community.

 

Our Mission

Our mission is to create more than bikinis — we craft a lifestyle that empowers women, celebrates femininity , inspires confidence, and a deeper sense of self-love.

 

Our Values

  • Empower Woman: encouraging self-love, confidence, and freedom in every stage of life.
  • Balance & Femininity: blending softness with strength, comfort with style, ritual with freedom.
  • Community & Connection: building a safe space where women feel supported and celebrated.
  • Sustainability: choosing quality and conscious practices that respect our planet.
  • Inspire Confidence: creating designs that make women feel beautiful and strong in their own skin.

Here, we believe in moon baths, ocean swims, and slow rituals.

By bringing our brand into your space, you offer clients a natural extension of their beauty rituals — from waxing and spray tanning to choosing the perfect fit.
