Kalani Vassallo is a 25-year-old creative from just north of Mandurah, working full-time as a surfwear designer while also running her own swimwear brand and modelling on the side. Growing up by the coast surrounded by surfing, fishing and snorkelling inspired her love for swimwear and eventually led her to launch her own bikini brand during COVID, using money she had originally saved for travelling.

This year, Kalani gave the brand a fresh start, relaunching and rebranding it as CÉONA. She also has a long-standing passion for modelling and the creative industry, particularly the collaboration between models, photographers and stylists.
