Born in Newport Beach, CA

We Built This for Her

Because every girl deserves swimwear that fits her body, her style, and her age.

It Started on a Saturday in Newport Beach.

Growing up in Newport Beach means the ocean is part of your life. Beach days, swim lessons at the Wedge, surf camp in Corona del Mar. But when it came time to shop for a swimsuit, my daughter had outgrown everything in the girls' section. The patterns were too young, the cuts too small. So we walked over to juniors. Padded tops. Cheeky bottoms. String bikinis designed for someone twice her age.

She stood in the fitting room with a suit that technically fit her body but had nothing to do with who she actually was. I watched her face fall. Not because of her body — because the options told her she didn't exist.

That afternoon we drove down PCH with the windows down, and I couldn't stop thinking about it. That was the day CoCoLo started. Not as a business plan. As a question: why doesn't anyone make swimwear for the in-between?

We named it CoCoLo — inspired by the coastal colors of our hometown. The deep ocean blues of Crystal Cove, the sea glass greens of Little Corona, the sunset corals that light up the Newport pier every evening.

The Sizing Gap Nobody Talks About

There are roughly 10 million girls ages 8-12 in the United States. They're in that stretch where kids' sizing is getting tight but women's sizes are cut for adult body proportions. No brand owns this space. Mass brands treat it as an afterthought. Premium brands price above $50. Nobody is combining real fit, real style, and real value — until now.

What We Stand For

Made for the In-Between

We exist specifically for the age that gets overlooked. Not scaled-down adult. Not stretched-up kids’. Purpose-built for the body and mind of an 8-12-year-old girl.

Confidence Without Compromise

Designs that make tweens feel genuinely cool while giving parents zero reason to say no. We refuse the false choice between style and appropriateness.

Every Body Belongs

Inclusive sizing is not an afterthought. Extended sizes, mix-and-match sizing, and body-diverse representation are built into the core line from day one.

Built to Last (and Built to Matter)

Recycled fabrics, durable construction, responsible production. Quality that survives an entire season of chlorine, salt, and sun — made from materials that respect the planet these girls will inherit.

Her Choice

We give tweens agency. The mix-and-match system, the color palette, the overall aesthetic — it’s designed so the girl makes the decision and feels ownership over what she wears.
