Bio
Kirsten Ehrig, founder of "O Maillots de Bains," was born and raised outside of Boston, Massachusetts.
She moved west to attend the University of Southern California where she received her B.A. in Art History and French. Kirsten also spent a year at La Sorbonne in Paris, France.
After college, she relocated to Europe and spent several years modeling while based out of Paris.
Kirsten went on to obtain her law degree from the University of California, Hastings College of the Law, and has been a business litigator since 1999.
Specifically, she has represented countless garment manufacturers and other businesses in litigation and arbitrations. Many of her clients are up-and-coming designers from the Los Angeles area.
She launched her own line of women's swimwear called "O Maillots de Bains" following a life-long dream. The line marries her love of jewelry design with her admiration for the way European women approach a day at the beach.
In her first year, she received the "Fresh Faces in Fashion" award from GenArt. Since then, her designs have been featured in many national magazines including ELLE, Harpers Bazaar, Vogue, Lucky, Esquire, Ocean Drive, and W.
A few of Kirsten's fashion-forward celebrity and socialite clients include Jade Jagger, Petra Nemcova, Samantha Boardman, Marisa Berenson, Donna Karan, and Emilia Fanjul.
