Nettle’s Tale is a swim wear brand that launched in 2014 with the vision to create swimwear that fit everyone’s body. With a hugely successful Kickstarter campaign, seven years later the brand has expanded to apparel wear with the same original vision: to create sustainable, slow-fashion pieces that were made for the everyday person. Their swim suits are comfortable, cute, and actually made to support your body. The brand’s sizing ranges from XS-4X and their site features a Community Fit Guideline by others who’ve worn the same piece to ensure that you purchase what fits you best.
