Brand Initial History

The idea of creating a brand of sustainable swimwear online for today's women.

 

Brissus is a Nordic brand based in Helsinki. Its founder is a Spanish designer based in Helsinki, with more than 25 years of experience in the textile sector and deeply committed to preventing plastic waste from ending up at sea.

All started some years ago; after few sabbaticals years on a sailboat. At that time I began to incubate the idea of developing my first collection, and how could it be otherwise, it would have to be sustainable production. I was very shocked during the trip to see floating on the beaches and into the ocean amounts of plastic adrift, with the consequences we all know for the environment. This trip gave me the opportunity to meet new places, new people, and admire all kinds of architecture, art, incredible boutiques, and beautiful people very committed to caring for the environment.  This trip made a significant impact on me, and I decided to make changes, be part of that little wave of people who want to improve and heal our planet from the wounds left by pollution.

The Brissus women's swimwear collection is synonymous of respect for nature and human beings. This collection is made of fabrics obtained from plastics and recycled bottles, as well as bio and sustainable materials. Always, looking for a minimal impact on the natural environment and its living beings.
 

Brissus is a Finnish brand based in Helsinki. It was born based on the personal commitment of its founder, with the mission of taking advantage of the natural resources that our planet gives us and trying to improve the quality of the seas and oceans; as well as preventing plastics from ending up in the sea.
