WHY I CREATED MAKARA WEAR?
When I moved to Bali, I was searching for a different lifestyle with a greater sense of freedom. I quickly fell in love with the ocean, surfing, and motorbikes. Surfing especially became a major part of my life. I decided to create swimwear for myself that would be elegant, functional, and durable. This is how MAKARA WEAR was born.
MAKARA WEAR is exactly what I wear for my everyday life, whether it’s doing water sports, riding motorbikes, or carrying out casual life tasks. I put extra attention to each centimeter, so the result is a cut that hugs the body like a glove. This is why customers feel confident in MAKARA WEAR - my pieces gently smooth the body like shapewear.
Sustainability became a major part of our journey three years ago. I believe that waste reduction and conscious consumption are the only way to a better future. Most of our items are created with a zero-waste formula, meaning we use extra fabric to create beautiful accessories like scrunches, or even bikini bottoms.
I’m also a big believer in giving back. For two years, we partnered with Bali Food Bank, a charity I co-founded on the island to provide nourishment to impoverished families. Now, we’re also supporting Ukrainian families in need, with plans to contribute to reef and rainforest organizations in the near future. In Bali, we love to participate in beach cleanups, and support local Indonesian surfers - they truly inspire us with their passion, force, and will.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for following this journey and for supporting my brand.
ONE LOVE.
