About

Mantis Swimwear is lovingly designed and made in Australia.

We are passionate about opening up new options in swimwear for women of every size to get back into the water and enjoy every moment.

Kacy the founder and designer of Mantis swimwear had always wanted more options than were available as a curvy woman. The available board shorts and rash guards never quite fit or felt comfortable, so Kacy started making her own. A huge sewing enthusiast Kacy started designing her swimwear for a family holiday and after years of using them and still nothing else available on the market like them decided that it was time to start a shop and make them available to others like her. 

The business went live online in December 2021 from her home in the Hills District of Sydney and has had many beautiful customers equally relieved and overjoyed to find an option that felt great at last.

Kacy has since moved to the beautiful Sunshine Coast in Queensland to be able to spend more time by the ocean with her young family and continues to design and dream up new options for curvy women of all sizes.
