“I love your designs and I can’t wait to get started! Where can I buy quality swimwear fabric?”
Great question! Many fabric retailers require a high minimum yardage purchase, which isn’t helpful for individuals or small business owners. Here are some great resources for buying smaller amounts of fabric. If you run a swimwear business, you'll want to find a consistent shop you know you can rely on. Plus, it's nice to find a shop that has all the latest trendy fabrics in stock!

I buy all types of fabric from Isee, but their swim is super soft and great quality. I especially like their ribbed fabrics.
Etsy
Etsy is a great resource to shop because with one search you can discover thousands of different shops. Try searching "swimwear fabric" and see all your options that come up! It's also a great place to find shops that ship to countries outside the U.S. Here are some of my favorite Etsy shops:
Facebook "Destashing" Groups
There are countless Facebook groups for fabric "destashing," which means everyday people getting rid of excess fabric they don't plan to use. This is a great way to get discounted fabrics, but also use your judgment, since you are buying from a profile on the Internet, not a vetted business.
Here are some groups that destash swimwear fabrics:
