August Society is a Singapore-based sustainable swimwear brand for strong, active, globetrotting women. Ethically produced in Bali from top-quality recycled fabrics and XtraLife Lycra®, their swimsuits feature timeless styles, mix and match, reversible and multi-wear flexibility and are built to last so that you can pack less and experience more. Approximately 10–20 million tons of plastic end up in the oceans each year. The polyester and nylon used in swimwear are actually types of plastic, derived from non-renewable petroleum. Their fabrics are made from recycled waste plastic that would have ended up in a landfill, or worse, the ocean.

The attractive line of men’s and women’s swimwear housed at August Society is not just about looking fantastic — it’s about feeling great about what you wear too! This Singapore-based label converts ocean-polluting plastic waste (fabric scraps, bottles, ghost nets) into stylish swimsuits, which are also crafted with in-built UPF 50+ sun protection and run-resistant Lycra Xtralife. Sticking close to their slow fashion philosophy, each piece has been intentionally designed to be reversible. Whether you go funky with tropical prints one day and solid classic hues the next — purchases from AS are sure to become long-lasting, trusty staples for your closet!
