Oneone Swimwear

When Olga and Santiago Velez met in college, they were both pursuing law degrees. But it didn't take long for them to realize that their true passion lay in the world of fashion. And so, armed with their degrees and their determination, they set out to create a swimwear brand that would be accessible to everyone, while still offering the highest quality and the most beautiful designs. Named after the Samoan word for sand, Oneone is all about the union of two individual pieces to create one iconic style. And in the case of Olga and Santiago, it's also about the union of two people who share a vision and a commitment to excellence. Together, they used their combined savings to design their first collection and shoot their first campaign in the Bahamas, and the rest is history. Today, the label employs over 300 female heads of household in a privately-owned factory in Medellin, Colombia, and is known for its skillful use of colors, youthful designs, and commitment to sustainability.
