Palm Beach Rebel was founded by Tyger Kahn, who built the brand after recovering from double cancer and paralysis. Told she would never walk again, Tyger returned to her childhood island to find healing through swimming. She emerged from this recovery like a phoenix, embodying the resilience the brand now represents.

As one of Palm Beach’s first Jewish debutantes, Tyger grew up on South Ocean Boulevard surrounded by fine art and antiques. Her rebellious spirit was evident early when she traded her first diamond for a motorcycle at a local pawnshop, reasoning she would get much more use from the latter.

Following her recovery, she recognized the unmet need for elegant, flattering swimwear designed specifically for women with a large bust that would provide support and full coverage while maintaining the sexiness associated with good swimwear. She created a signature suit engineered for support yet versatile enough to be paired with a sarong for a meeting before diving into the sea, inspired by the rare gems and exquisite patterns of her family’s estate jewelry business, which was once considered the top destination in the United States for estate jewelry. Its clients ranged from royalty to prominent world leaders Tyger’s line invites the wearer into an era of classic elegance and sophisticated style.

Tyger’s experience of full recovery through swimming gives her the focus and confidence to encourage women to get into the water. With the support of her medical team, many studies now suggest that physical training in the water is the most effective and safest way to recover from many serious ailments.

Leading by example, Tyger is the perfect role model to inspire buyers to replace gym clothes with a swimsuit.

Get into the water and reclaim your life.

In strength,

Tyger
