Hey!
I’m Scarlett i am 17 year old and the owner and the vision behind Sunchaser Clothing. Born and raised on the east coast of Australia, here in Newcastle, I love to spend my time by the ocean surfing and exploring up and down the coast. The ocean is at the heart of my brand and its where I get majority of my inspiration from, especially when it comes to new prints and designs.
A few of my favourite things are the ocean, surfing, my beautiful dog Rosie, music, travel, sustainability and my friends and family! Oh and of course this brand which is my pride and joy, a few of these things pictured below:
I launched this brand after just freshly turning thirteen in October of 2020 starting out selling beach inspired clothing and jewellery, but I always knew I wanted to expand to something greater that wouldn’t just create new pieces but give back to our earth for all it provides I just didn’t know where to start.
In the winter of 2021, I realised there was a real lack in the market for sustainable swimwear that would support you in the surf, so I decided to put my love for the ocean and cute swimwear together and create my very own sustainable swim collection which would be created out of recycled plastics.
So, in August of 2021 I began to design my very own sustainable swimwear collection learning new things each and every day, going through the process of sampling and testing out our swim pieces so we were ensured they ticked all our boxes.
After months of blood sweat and tears March of 2022 came around and I launched my very first, hand drawn and designed collection Our Day Dreamer Collection which was a real pinch me moment. The immense amount of support and love shown to this collection is surreal after pouring your heart into something and seeing that other people do really like it is such a good feeling and I’m so forever grateful for all the love.
Since then i have launched around 9 new collections and travelled to over 8 countries in my designs and one of them was to shoot a new collection! As of February 2024 I have left school and am now working full time on this dream of mine which is so surreal. The decision to go against the grain and leave school was far from easy but life has become so much more beautiful ever since as this is truly what i want to do. The growth i have experienced as a brand is truly thanks to my customers and my beautiful parents backing me on the journey.
Thankyou all for your continued support it honestly means the world to us i can't wait to see whats to come for my brand! If you have any questions feel free to email me at sunchaserclothing@hotmail.com
Keep Sunchasing!
Scarlett xx
