HI! I’M LINDSAY.
I'm a designer, swimmer, and mother of two from California. After many years in the apparel industry as a developer and designer, I embarked on mission to redefine swimwear.
LINDSAY REGAN, Founder & CEO
I was inspired to create swimsuits for women after the experiences I had in swimwear postpartum. Trying on swimsuits can be an unpleasant experience, but I struggled even more with this after having children. I needed something that was secure and held me in all the right places, but not so covered-up that I sacrificed style. I couldn't find anything in the market that was quite right, so rather than fight against my body's evolution, I decided to design a collection of suits to work with an evolving body.
My mama’s styles are lined with powermesh - a powerful (and comfortable) four-way stretch fabric that supports your midsection. The exterior fabric is ECONYL®, a 100% regenerated nylon fiber obtained from fishnets and other nylon waste, that can be recycled infinitely. The silhouettes are designed to flatter your shape, stay-put when worn, and withstand the high impact hugs and tugs from your little ones.
And speaking of little ones, I am launching le larc KIDS in Summer 2020 featuring a collection of sustainable children’s swimwear with a distinct point of view. Wear-tested by the children in my community, le larc KIDS is made to move, splash, and play with your most active littles. Made from the same regenerated nylon ECONYL® fiber and high-quality components as the women’s collection, le larc KIDS incorporates the same sustainable concepts and design principles in all styles.
le larc swimwear is manufactured in America in small batches. I can’t wait for you to try one on.
xx, Lindsay
THE STYLE
The le larc aesthetic is understated and modern, but undeniably feminine. Geometric stylelines are incorporated with a rich color palette, and softness is paired with structure. le larc swimwear is made using high-quality, eco-friendly performance fabrics, which are engineered for longevity and shape retention. The collections put a modern woman's practical requirements on equal footing with fashion's demands: style must not outweigh function and feeling confident in our swimwear is the ultimate goal.
THE COMMITMENT
le larc has committed to developing le larc swimwear responsibly, using a high-performance fabric that is made with ECONYL®, a 100% regenerated nylon fibre obtained from post-consumer waste. le larc swimwear is now exclusively manufactured in California, where we are able to have personal relationships with every skilled artisan that helps create the product. le larc items maintain the highest quality standards to guarantee your investment in swimwear with longevity.
