PT Sales Associate: Bond - eye

Part-Time Sales Associate

About the Brand Made to be seen, bond-eye swim is infused with the spirit of summer, salt-mist days + electric nights of its home in Sydney. Known for bold, ultra flattering silhouettes, each collection hints of nostalgia paired with innovative design principles. Every piece is designed with intention, incorporating modern ethical production practices—from initial designs, through to our Authentic Crinkle™ swimwear handcrafted in Australia. Every piece has been artisanally hand-made, knitted using premium European fibres, + constructed to allow four-way stretch + instant recovery along the body for statement-making pieces that match the mood of the wearer: Confident, discerning + truly authentic. bond-eye swimwear is unsized + designed to fit a size XS through to L, with all shapes + sizes in between. Due to the unique stretch of our fabric, most of The Authentic Crinkle™ bikini tops + one-piece swimsuits can fit an A-DD/E cup. Our ultra-flexible fabric means most of our The Authentic Crinkle™ bikini bottoms can be worn either low, mid or high rise. We're proud of the fact that our swim collections are unsized for a reason—the reduction of excess fabric from offering multiple sizing. By creating unsized swimwear, we're also cutting down on excessive stock + reusing fabric off-cuts, with 80% of our range shaped from regenerated nylon derived from pre-consumer raw materials that would ordinarily go to waste. This recycled yarn is manufactured exclusively by a premium Italian mill using leading environmental processes which include reduced carbon dioxide emissions, 100% renewable energy + less water consumption.
