OUR STORY


Riot was created out of a need for representation. When Monti Landers looked at the swimwear industry, she didn’t see herself or any of the women she knew reflected. No brands spoke to her shape, her skin tone, or her story. So she built her own.

What started as a swimwear brand has grown into a full lifestyle label. A blend of timeless staples and sculpted silhouettes made to move with you, whether you're dressing up, dressing down, or somewhere in between.

With her husband Cedric supporting the vision, Monti built Riot to fill the gap. Effortless, sculpted pieces that celebrate every shape, color, size, and backstory. Riot was never just about fashion. It was about belonging. About confidence. About finally feeling seen.

Black-owned, female-led company, Riot Swim

We design for the everyday moments. The morning errands. The long lunches. The quiet breakthroughs. Each piece is made to complement 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 volumes without saying a word.

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

This is more than clothing. It is a movement built for the woman who lets her presence speak before she does, who owns it, craves ease, and dresses for herself.
