Local & Responsible Production
- Brussels: design & distribution
- Italy & Spain: our fabrics, some made with SEAQUAL® recycled fibres
- Spain & Portugal: manufacturing, near Barcelona and Porto
- Small runs, made all year round: our swimsuits aren’t seasonal.
At ikonō, we design with women and the planet in mind.
Protecting both is the same mission.
