Inside the world of Kristin Cooney
There’s a certain kind of moment we’re always chasing.
Sunlight on skin, salt in the air, the feeling of having nowhere to be but exactly where you are.
It’s the space Bambina was built in, and when I came across Kristin Cooney’s paintings, it felt instantly familiar. Like she had captured that same world, just in a different form.
Where we design for the coast, she paints it.
A Shared Language
Kristin, the artist behind Kristin Cooney Studio, creates pieces that feel like memories you haven’t quite placed yet. Women mid-moment...stepping into the water, adjusting a wide-brim hat, lingering just a second longer in the sun.
It’s not just what they’re doing, it’s how it feels.
It's the same feeling we think about when designing a suit, a robe, a piece you reach for on the way out the door—without overthinking it.
Why We ❤️ Kristin:
Based in Atlanta, Kristin starts each piece by hand, drawing from vintage silhouettes, coastal palettes, and a quiet kind of confidence.
I can't help but be drawn to her Bathing Beauties Collection with her use of soft color, strong femininity, a sense of ease that doesn’t try too hard.
And just like your favorite swimsuit, every piece starts with intention. Each print is a reproduction of a hand-painted original, making it feel truly special in your space.
Sunny Outlook
And here’s where it all comes together...
Every woman in her paintings feels like she could step out of the frame and into one of our pieces. Heading toward the water, meeting friends for something cold, or simply staying in that in-between moment a little longer.
If you’re drawn to that effortless beach glamour (same 🤍), you have to see her bestseller: Sunny Outlook.
She’s relaxed, radiant, and confident in her sunny yellow suit...basically the energy we’re all channeling this season. She instantly brightens a room and feels like the perfect complement to your favorite Bambina look.
