Swimwear with a difference

Swimwear with a difference

Posted 28 January 2020

Liandra Gaykamangu is a Yolngu woman who balances a business, Liandra Swim, with a growing family and believes that empowering women empower women further. We couldn't agree more!

Her SBS Small Business Secrets segment is breaking records with views of over 500,000. She's a talent who opened the Pacific Runway as her first ever show and the only Australian designer. Her latest swimsuits are made from recycled ocean plastic and packaged in biodegradable plant material.

Liandra is also on the representative group for Futures Forum where our young people are creating a map for culture to influence business in the future. She hopes to show other young Indigenous mothers that anything is possible.
