There are swim brands, and then there’s Hunza G.

Defined by a singular textile and a shape that doesn’t chase trend, Hunza G is the brand that made the crinkle a signature—and kept it relevant across decades. Originally launched in 1984 under the name Hunza, the label was founded by Peter Meadows, who developed a unique crinkle-stretch fabrication that set the tone for what would become one of the most iconic bodies in swimwear history.

Fabric as Identity

The fabric is the brand. A dense, ribbed textile with high elasticity, Hunza G’s crinkle-stretch material doesn’t just hold shape—it adapts. It sculpts without compressing. It stretches without losing form. And it allows for the brand’s One Size Fit philosophy: an inclusive, body-responsive approach to swimwear that feels custom without being complicated.

No hardware. No fastenings. No over-construction. Just a clean silhouette and a performance textile designed to move.

The Shape: High-Cut, Always

Hunza G’s original codes remain intact. High-cut legs. Streamlined bodies. Square necklines. A design language rooted in the late 1980s and early 1990s—preserved, not referenced.

These aren’t retro suits. They’re legacy pieces that have held their form.

Modern Nostalgia

Color is central to Hunza G’s presence. Saturated brights. Refined neutrals. Tonal pastels. Everything is grounded in light and location—swimwear for sun, water, and heat. The styling is restrained but never passive.

There’s a kind of modern nostalgia to Hunza G: the feeling of something familiar, but sharpened. No logos, no gimmicks. Just considered design and intentional restraint.

One Size: Not a Gimmick

Hunza G’s One Size Fit is not a marketing hook—it’s a technical outcome of the brand’s textile innovation. Each suit is engineered to fit a range of bodies. The result is swimwear that removes the idea of tailoring, instead allowing the garment to respond to the person wearing it.

This isn’t about hiding shape or forcing conformity. It’s about flexibility. About simplification. Wear it how you want.

Conclusion

Hunza G is the original crinkle—not because it was first to market, but because it never needed to be anything else. Built around a single fabric and a focused silhouette, the brand exists in its own lane: functional, familiar, and exact.

The crinkle doesn’t follow. It sets the tone. You can shop all Hunza: here.
