OUR STORY
Welcome to Tapara Beachwear!
An ethical fashion brand known for its predominantly white designs with vibrant touches of colour and high quality materials.
Founded in 2006 the brand began in a small village on the Venezuelan coast. The name Tapara was inspired by the beautiful calabashes found in the tropical forests.
Drawing from the chic, carefree lifestyle of St Barth, where Carole the founder was living, Tapara Beachwear quickly expanded to other Caribbean islands and the Maldives.
Today, Carole's daughter, designer and model Amaya, has joined her mother, continuing the brand's legacy of unique, high-quality handmade designs, creating timeless, long lasting tunics.
OUR VISION
At Tapara Beachwear, our vision is to create everlasting, high-quality summer and beach clothing, that captures simplicity and femininity, making every woman feel beautiful.
We design our unique eyelet embroidery fabric using 100% cotton textile and select pure cotton jacquard. Our coloured pieces are garment dyed, enhancing both the richness of the color and its softness. White, being the predominant color, reflects the simplicity and elegance that defines our style."
We are committed to maximising ethical values, always working with artisans, supporting small productions, and respecting traditional processes. Our dedication to details and our belief in the values of slow fashion helps us in producing designs that you will keep for years to come.
We strongly believe that the principles of respect and kindness toward our teams and clients, are essential for maintaining general harmony, which is reflected in the quality and aesthetic of our beachwear.
SUSTAINABILITY
At Tapara Beachwear, sustainability is very important to our decision making - process.
Our fabrics are produced in limited quantities, often using eco friendly cotton. We have always prioritise natural dyeing techniques, minimising the use of chemicals while achieving the most vivid and beautiful colours. Each piece in our collection is han - dyed individually, a process that not only enhances the vibrancy of our colours, but also reduces environmental impact.
Our commitment to these sustainable practices allows us to create long lasting pieces that are gentle with the planet.
