Sun Protection, Without Compromise

Sunsitiva was founded on the belief that women shouldn’t have to choose between stylish swimwear and serious sun protection. Our mission is to create elegant, confidence-boosting swimwear with built-in UPF 50+ protection, that's actually covering the most sensitive areas and not just talks about it.

Meet the Founder

Born and raised in Austria, Maren now calls London home. Her journey with Sunsitiva started from a personal need—finding fashionable swimwear that truly protects the skin. After struggling to find pieces that combined elegance with effective sun protection, she decided to create her own. What began as a solution for herself quickly turned into a passion when she realized how many women today are mindful of their skin’s health and love the idea of sun-protective swimwear.

Crafted for Style, Comfort & Protection

Every Sunsitiva piece is made with premium, Italian-crafted, UPF 50+ certified fabrics, ensuring long-lasting UV protection that won’t wash out. We work with an expert artisan swimwear manufacturer in Bali - an island known for its world-class swimwear craftsmanship - to ensure each design is as comfortable and flattering as it is protective.

Sustainable & Thoughtful Design

We believe in fashion that’s kind to the planet. That’s why our swimwear is made from high-quality recycled materials, including regenerated ocean waste. By choosing Sunsitiva, you’re not only protecting your skin but also making a positive impact on the environment.

Loved by Women Who Care About Their Skin

Our swimwear is designed for women who are sun-conscious, those with sensitive skin, and anyone who wants to reduce the risk of UV-related skin damage—without sacrificing style. Sunsitiva is also trusted by those who have experienced skin cancer or other sun-related conditions and want extra protection without feeling limited in their fashion choices.

Join the Sunsitiva Movement

For too long, the beauty standard glorified sunbathing and deep tans—often at the cost of our skin’s health. It’s time for a shift. Sunsitiva is here to redefine how we enjoy the sun: with confidence, style, and smart protection. Our mission is to empower women to embrace the sun responsibly—celebrating its warmth while respecting its power.

Sun safety isn’t about hiding from the sun; it’s about enjoying it wisely. With Sunsitiva, you can look amazing while making a conscious choice to protect your skin. Let’s leave the days of frying in the sun behind and set a new trend—one where beauty and skin health go hand in hand.
