OUR STORY
ABOUT GEORGIE G SWIM & CO
GEORGIE G SWIM & CO is an online store and in-person studio that specializes in custom-made premium handmade swimwear. We use the highest quality swimwear fabrics in the most unique prints and colours we can source. We are also constantly working towards minimizing our carbon footprint by providing a made-to-order business that reduces mass inventory ending up in landfills, eco-friendly fabric options, reusing fabric scraps to limit waste, and making reusable muslin cotton bags to package your suits in.
GEORGIE G was founded in 2018 by owner and creator Victoria Gregorio. When ordering custom suits from our Studio each piece is handmade to your measurements in the style, colour, and sizing of your choice. This gives us the ability to completely customize a swimsuit to your needs and your wants; you can truly build your dream swimsuit collection.
This Ontario-based brand is a reflection of the designer’s style and the niche needs of the Northern girl. Our goal is to make all women feel comfortable, confident, and sexy in their skin.
Our collections are designed with high cut bottoms with varying coverages and many different tops to choose from to cater to all body types. We have spent endless hours and nights sourcing and creating the highest quality and best fitting swimwear you can find.
We have come so far and we are extremely proud of the collections we’ve created and hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
MEET OUR TEAM
WHO IS GEORGIE G?
Raised in beautiful 4-seasons Burlington, Ontario, Victoria always had a dream of being an entrepreneur and being her own boss; her trouble was just searching for the first worthy business idea. When she was just shy of her twenties, she found herself frustrated with the choices and quality of swimwear in stores or online that fit different body types. But she soon realized she wasn’t the only one who had the same problem finding swimwear that fit and made her feel confident, so she vowed to create a solution.
And that’s when GEORGIE G SWIM & CO became her new baby! She started by doing product research, staying up late nights testing fabrics and designs, getting her friends to try on different styles to find the perfect fit. (Sometimes this could take up to 12 pattern drafts) When she found it, she began to invest money to find the perfect swimwear fabric and machines to create her dream collection.
She first started marketing her creations on Instagram while studying at the University of Guelph for Criminal Justice and Business. As she grew the brand with her new ideas, she built a tiny empire of women who loved to the variety that was offer and creating their own swimwear.
Victoria has now expanded by creating an online store, expanding her team and selling to retailers like Sunflowers and Sunshine in Sauble beach. This is with the intent to expand into more retail stores, so there access for everyone. She continues to pour her heart into the brand and is always thinking of the newest collections, events, and styles to add to her brand. She’s always building and creating new pieces every day and can’t wait to share her vision with you.
