Saturday Swimwear, a female-owned brand in Oregon, is dedicated to crafting high-quality, eco-friendly swimwear. Originally handmade by the owner and designer, I played a crucial role in scaling production by sourcing and establishing a production partner aligned with the brand's values of sustainability, Made in USA, and supporting female owned busineses. The new production studio, also female-owned and operated, reflects the brand's ethos. To launch this production relationship, I led development efforts, overseeing design, pattern making, samples, fit-testing and costing. Today, the brand continues to work directly with the established production studio and has successfully produced multiple collections together.
