About Hunza G

Hunza G is a British designed and produced sustainable swimwear label, helmed by Creative Director Georgiana Huddart. A background in fashion publication and interior design coupled with a love for the heritage crinkle fabric, originally worn by herself throughout her youth, brings us today’s Hunza G as we know it. 

Originally born as "Hunza" in 1984 under the direction of Peter Meadows, the label enjoyed huge success with its signature, unique crinkle-stretch fabrication and high-cut leggy designs. 

The Hunza dress became an iconic piece, with Julia Roberts wearing it in Pretty Woman.

With roots in the eighties and strong knowledge of design, Hunza G sets out to provide swimwear for all - a one size fit inclusive approach made possible by the fabric’s inherent stretch and support is key to both the wearability and strong, flattering shapes suitable for a wide range of body types. Each item is made to order in-studio, meaning minimal deadstock fabric or wastage. The signature fabric is knit and dyed locally, decreasing emissions and helping to promote a stronger fashion production industry within the UK. 

Hunza G aims to bring a punchy, current twist to both new and heritage shapes, whilst reinventing the way we view swimwear today. Ethical and comfortable, each piece is designed to be treasured.
