Marialexandra Garcia Makes a Splash With Gender Neutral Swimwear

Marialexandra Garcia is founder and CEO of Outplay, a gender neutral activewear brand. Outplay's star products are compression tops, which are a safer alternative to binders. Marialexandra has 25 years experience in the garment industry. She spent the majority of her career as a bridal designer, shifting in 2011 to launch a line of wedding attire for brides who preferred non-conventional wedding attire with an emphasis of jackets, vests and pants. Ultimately, designing for women who wanted gender non-conforming wedding attire led Marialexandra to solving another problem by creating compression tops and gender neutral swimwear. In 2014, Outplay was launched and has enjoyed great success. In this episode, Marialexandra and Anne-Marie talk about this journey from bridal wear to compression tops and swim wear and why this work is so meaningful.You can learn more and shop Marialexandra's line of compression tops and swimwear at www.shopoutplay.comTo learn more about Jack's story and his coaching programs visit www.jackaori.comAre you a Queer business owner or ally?
