Plumeria was inspired by the idea that I saw a gap in the marketplace for swimwear brands that not only showcased models of different sizes, but had pieces that were affordable, made ethically and sustainably, and also had the ability to be customized based on sizing. I was inspired by the West Coast and it's beauty during a REALLY cold winter season on the east coast. 

Plumeria is a genus of flowers that typically grow in warmer, more tropical climates. I chose the word Plumeria as the company name to link the beauty of floral elements with the beauty of inclusivity, especially when it comes to different body shapes and sizes.
