Hunza G

Eco-friendly Swimwear

Company profile

Hunza G was originally born in 1984, known then only as Hunza under the direction of Peter Meadows who created its signature, unique crinkle-stretch fabrication and high-cut leggy designs. Hunza became instantly recognisable in the 90’s after being worn by Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman - yes, that cut-out mini dress. In 2015, Hunza added the G when Georgiana Huddart relaunched the brand and became creative director after having an obsession with the fabrics throughout her 20’s.

With modern nostalgia at its core, Hunza G has grown to become an iconic brand synonymous with the beach. Its 80’s roots bringing a cool and contemporary twist to beachwear in powerful hues. With a One Size Fit mantra made possible by figure flattering fabric that flexes to sculpt and support all shapes, the secret to Hunza G is to wear it how you want to.

Sustainability

Carbon Neutral

Born in the UK, our signature crinkle is made with no deadstock fabric or wastage. Our one size stance is not only an effort to remain an inclusive brand, but also reduces the risk of over-purchased sizing on a commercial level. Ethical and comfortable, each piece will see you through a lifetime and all that it brings. We strive to provide the most considerate and healthy working environment for all members of the team – from production and prep, to Head Office – it’s something that really matters to us. Fair trade and a consistently positive setting are key to providing the best end-product for our community of loyal customers.Hunza G Ltd is a carbon-neutral company. 2020 carbon footprint collated & offset byBeZero Carbon Ltd.

Community

We place huge importance on our community, not only as a London-based brand, but as a force within the industry that can assist in times of need. Many times a year we donate portions of our gross profit to charities such as Street Smart UK, as well as smaller movements supporting sustainable efforts and towards positive causes within our community. This includes producing pieces for raffles, sample sales, donations of profit, charity pieces, and generating digital awareness.

Waste Reduction

With increased importance placed on localised production and operations, we limit our carbon footprint and commercial output massively. Minimising back and forth production is a prominent focus of ours and we work towards strengthening these efforts regularly. We are not perfect, however we believe it’s the collective shift towards change that makes the biggest impact overall. Hunza G mailer bags are an environmentally friendly alternative to the traditional polythene mailing bag, whilst being totally plastic free. We operate with a minimal paper printing policy, and ship using DHL Go-Green, which aids in offsetting transit emissions. Our packaging is done as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible, utilising as little space per unit as we can manage.
