THE ART OF SLOW CREATION
Nina Après Swim is founded on the principles of slow fashion: considered production, mindful fabric choices, and a devotion to the techniques that respect our maker’s hands.
Every design is Australian-conceived, inspired by the harmony of modern form and natural rhythm. Born from a return to roots, this female-led, demi-luxury brand exists at the intersection of heritage artistry and coastal ease.
We create for the discerning woman - one who values refined swimwear and elevated resortwear, and who seeks sophistication without excess, beauty without compromise. Our collections are imbued with meaning: from hand-woven
textiles by skilled artisans, to embroideries that echo age-old traditions, each piece is a quiet celebration of culture and considered design.
At Nina Après Swim, we create wit intention. We use natural and premium fabrics selected for their integrity and longevity, and we obsess over fit - because a garment should not only look exquisite but feel effortless.
This is not luxury for show - it's luxury with purpose.
Traceable. Thoughtful. Made to last.
MEET THE DESIGNER
Natasha Nikolovska, whose initials form the acronym Nina, is an Australian fashion designer with over two decades of experience in creating luxury swimwear and resort wear.
Her design philosophy is deeply personal: inspired by the rich tapestry of her North Macedonian heritage and a deep appreciation for the craft behind the clothing.
Surrounded by art, history, and a family that nurtured creative expression, Natasha watched her grandmothers, both skilled in textile creation, sewing, and handcrafting, transforming fabric into beauty. It was there, between needles, threads, and pages of fashion magazines, that her creative path was first drawn.
After a compelling industry career, both globally and in Australia, a quiet pause in 2020 brought Natasha back to her roots. That moment of reflection became a return - not just to her cultural lineage, but to the values that first inspired her: intention, craftsmanship, and timeless design.
From this reconnection, Nina Après Swim was born - a brand that speaks to conscious luxury, merging heritage with modern coastal living, artful details, and a desire to create pieces that hold emotional meaning as well as enduring beauty.
