Swimwear with a conscience

Look good. Feel good. Do good.

Some places change the way you see the world. Mauritius is one of them. Surrounded by the shimmering turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, it is a place of rare and breathtaking beauty — and a daily reminder that what is precious must be protected.

Since 2020, Aima Dora has turned that belief into action — crafting stunning swimwear from fabrics born from recycled ocean and land plastic waste. Look good. Feel good. Do good. Our motto from the start. And our enduring commitment.

The problem.

Every year, 14 million tonnes of plastic waste pour into our oceans. The ocean that sustains us, inspires us, and gives us life — is drowning in our waste.

Being part of the solution.

Alma Stanonik swapped high fashion and high heels for a barefoot life on the shores of Mauritius — and never looked back. Captivated by the beauty of the ocean, and troubled by the growing threat to it, she decided to act.

Aima Dora is her answer - a brand built on the conviction that swimwear can be both stunning and responsible — designed to fit and flatter, inspired by the natural beauty of Mauritius, and created with an unwavering commitment to the planet.

Fabrics from ocean & land plastic.

Aima Dora's distinctive printed fabrics are made from SEAQUAL YARN, which begins life as plastic waste — pulled from oceans, rivers and beaches across the world by the SEAQUAL INITIATIVE.

With collection points in countries facing some of the world's most severe plastic mismanagement — including Brazil, Egypt, Mexico, T unisia and Vietnam SEAQUAL intercepts plastic waste before it breaks down into microplastics.

Marine plastic waste is first sorted, shredded into flakes and cleaned. It’s then turned into pellets, and finally transformed into SEAQUAL YARN.

From fishing nets to fabrics.

Aima Dora also uses fabrics made from ECONYL® regenerated nylon, a remarkable material born entirely from waste. Abandoned fishing nets, worn-out carpets and unwanted plastic components — collected, regenerated and reborn as a high-performing, beautiful fabric.

Unlike traditional oil-based nylon, ECONYL® requires no new resources — reducing plastic pollution and helping to alleviate climate change, one swimsuit at a time.

Sustainability isn't an afterthought. It's everything.

Every piece we produce is made to order — no unnecessary stock, no waste, just the perfect swimwear crafted for you in your chosen style, colour and size, from XS to XXL.

Every stitch is made in our own atelier in the heart of Mauritius, giving us full visibility over our production process and the people behind it.

And because we believe nothing should go to waste, we find creative new lives for our fabric off-cuts and remnants — from keyrings to headbands and beyond.

Sustainability starts with people.

We believe a truly sustainable brand takes care of its team as much as its planet. That means fair pay, ethical working conditions, and genuine respect for the skilled Mauritian seamstresses who bring Aima Dora to life, stitch by stitch.

They are not just our workforce. They are our foundation.

We can't wait for you to discover it.

Ils parlent de nous

  • " Alma Stanonik concrétise sa vision. Les problèmes qui pourraient survenir pour la durabilité de ses produits et leur recyclage en raison de l'utilisation de supports en métal et en plastique sont résolus par des solutions basées sur la découpe : les éléments de nouage, d'enveloppement et d'attache sont ainsi devenus l'élément stylistique typique des tenues océaniques de la marque."
