Let customers speak for us
This is us
We are Tiina and Yvi, two mothers and passionate surfers who founded MAIN Design. Our small Swiss fashion company was born out of the need to find functional and stylish surf bikinis that we were missing. So we started to develop our own designs. MAIN Design stands for sustainable surf and swimwear, especially for the environmentally conscious surfer and mother. Each product is developed with love and care from idea to completion to offer you feel-good swimwear and accessories that make you happy. Our commitment to the environment doesn't stop with our products. With every online sale we donate 1% to Healthy Seas to protect our oceans. Together we create a better future – for ourselves and our children.
Surf Bikinis and Swimsuits for Active Women
Our surf bikinis and swimsuits are specially designed to stay put during movement in the water. Unlike conventional swimwear, they offer secure support, functional cuts, and high wearing comfort – even when surfing, swimming, or stand-up paddling.
Thanks to well-thought-out designs, elastic materials, and sturdy constructions, the pieces stay in place even when you're on the move. At the same time, we prioritize a minimalist, modern design and sustainable materials.
MAIN Design combines functionality with aesthetics – for women who want to move freely in the water without having to worry about their bikini.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
