Originally founded in 1962, Diane’s Beachwear made custom bikinis that were cutting edge and stylish. Each customer was fitted in store, and then their bikini was hand-sewn in a site just above them. Little girls could even have suits custom made to match their moms.

“Our commitment began with and continues to focus on the well-being of women,” comments Diane’s Beachwear owner, Diane Biggs. “In a nurturing environment, we encourage women to be active, healthy and to feel good about their bodies.”

Diane’s Beachwear revolutionized the industry by being the first to offer the ability to mix sizes in all swimwear tops and bottoms. They have maintained a leading position in the region by offering the largest selections of mix-and-match separates.

“By offering a complete beachwear wardrobe year round, our customers know they never have to look elsewhere,” finished Biggs. “We provide them with one stop shopping for all of their beachwear needs.”
