For Gonza, it felt like a natural choice to bring the artist onto its team, as Becky G has made waves with her unique and trendy style that has included elegant corset tops and chunky platform boots.

“We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Becky G to the Gonza family as creative director,” said CEO Ryan Horne in a press statement. “As a BIPOC business, I founded Gonza with the vision of creating an inclusive brand where my daughter could see herself represented as a woman of color. Becky not only aligns perfectly with our brand, but also serves as a powerful inspiration for women of color. I am proud to have her join the team, knowing that she will be a role model for her community and other young women.”

To mark her debut in this new role, she and the brand released a new swimwear collection on Wednesday (June 28), and it’s available to shop now!
