Swimwear Designed from Lived Experience
Avantika & Achina
How many times have we had to deal with swimsuits that just don’t get us? Sliding straps, wedgies, awkward cuts—ugh, enough already.
That’s exactly why I started Timala—with my mom, Dr. Achina, who’s an incredible artist. Together, we’ve designed every single piece to solve the real problems women face with swimwear. Whether it’s adjustable straps that actually stay, high-waist fits that don’t roll down, or fabric that moves with you (not against you), we’ve thought it through—because we’ve been through it.
Timala is built for real women and real bodies—from XS to 3XL. We offer two ranges: Timala Art, featuring exclusive prints from my mom’s artwork, and Timala Essentials, which focuses on classic, functional fits. Every suit is made with UV-protected, 4-way stretch fabric that feels like a second skin but supports like your bestie on a bad day.
Why Timala?
Each Timala piece is carefully crafted, tested for stretch, colorfastness, and chlorine resistance.
Smart Fabric Tech
Soft, sculpting, UV-protected & 4-way stretch for fabric that works harder than your sunscreen.
Real Women = Real Fit
Timala sizes are based on feedback from 100+ Indian women, not random US or UK charts.
Fully Adjustable Everything
Straps, hooks, ties, because bodies aren’t one-size-fits-all. Double lining where it counts, too.
Feedback-First Design
We listen, we tweak, we evolve. Every style is shaped by real-life feedback from women who actually wear it.
Made with REPREVE
Select pieces are made from recycled plastic bottles, sustainable + stunning.
