OUR STORY


Riot was created from a lack of representation. When founder Monti Landers looked at the swimwear industry, she didn’t see herself or the women around her reflected. The fits, the imagery, the stories felt disconnected from real bodies and real lives. So she built what she couldn’t find.

What began as swimwear has grown into a lifestyle brand rooted in ease, confidence, and intention. Riot designs timeless staples and sculpted silhouettes made to move with you, whether you’re dressing up, dressing down, or somewhere in between.

Built alongside her husband Cedric, Riot exists to fill the gap. Effortless pieces designed to flatter, support, and feel good on the body. From the beginning, Riot was never just about clothing. It was about belonging. About confidence. About finally feeling seen.

Black-owned, female-led company, Riot Swim

Riot is designed for everyday life. The morning errands. The long lunches. The quiet breakthroughs. And the moments that stretch into the night. Each piece is made to work with your wardrobe and simplify the way you get dressed, on your terms.

No overthinking. No chasing trends.
Just clean lines, sculpted fits, and soft textures that speak without saying too much.

Riot is your uniform. Effortless. Intentional. Made to be worn on repeat.

This is more than clothing. It’s a brand built for women who dress for themselves and let their presence speak first.
