No six packs and thigh gaps here, we are all about the curves.The name Artesands is originally derived from sand (the beach) and artisans (skilled workmanship).  

Our philosophy is to enhance where desired and support where required, as we all know our bodies, the areas that need that little bit of support and the others we like to show off.

Artesands is a brand that is 110% behind the design of perfectly fitting swimsuits for your curves. Fitted on ‘true to size’ curvy women not fashion models, you will notice this difference when you see different shaped curvy women trying on our styles. We are the brand that is ahead of the curve when it comes to loving your curves! 

At Artesands we understand that every woman’s body is uniquely different and that we all don’t fit into a standard body size mould. We all have curves but not all our curves are in the same places, so it’s really important to know our own individual bodies and take our measurements correctly to find the perfect curve fit or plus size swimsuit to perfectly fit our unique and individual curvy bodies.

To find your perfectly sculpted Artesands curve fit or plus size swimsuit we suggest you measure 6 different points on your body.

These women weren’t wanting to conform to what society at large deemed to be ‘the perfect figure’. On the contrary, they wanted to embrace their curves and show them off, but the limited and dated shapes and fabrics on the market, were not fashionable, comfortable or supportive.

And with that, Artesands was born. A brand that not only offered beautiful, well-made swimwear for curvy bodies, but literally trailblazed a shift in attitudes in the swimwear retail industry, setting the ball in motion for a considerable change in the design approach to catering for all body shapes and sizes.

As its name suggests, Artesands is a blend between the words ‘artisans’ – skilled workmanship, ‘art and ‘sand’ – representing the beach, summing up their design philosophy and doing away with the notion that larger women don’t swim. But a clever name wasn’t enough for us here at Artesands; we were determined to break down stereotypes about so-called ‘plus size’ women and help women, and society, to embrace the curve!

Our motto: “No six packs and thigh gaps here – we are all about the curve” proves their point. Put simply, Artesands is a brand dedicated to the design of perfectly fitting swimsuits for curves.

To prove our intention and authenticity, we fit their designs on ‘true to size’ curvy women, not traditional fashion models, ensuring the swimwear offers support where required while showing curves in their best light.

We are ahead of the curve when it comes to curves.
