An exciting new store has arrived on our sunny shores. Taka Wear Australia is located at the Colonnade, Subiaco and stocks luxurious resort wear that’s comfortable enough to wear to the beach and glamorous enough to wear for cocktails afterwards. It’s the kind of casual-glamour that Turkish owner Tania Eskinazi exudes, that effortless ‘I just threw this on’ look which could belong in the pages of a glossy magazine.

Originating in Los Angeles, Taka Wear Australia has a huge range from bikinis, shorts, pants, tops, dresses, kaftans, scarves and beach bags all made in exclusive fabric that’s designed and produced in Turkey.
These scarves would make a perfect Christmas gift
The clothing is very unique and has a distinctly international feel. Fabrics are luxurious, soft and airy, ideal for hot Australian summers, and the designs are so chic they could easily belong on a yacht in St Tropez, the beaches of Bali or a Greek island resort.
I got so excited about these clothes that I had to try a few of my favourites on, and I could happily pack an entire suitcase full of Taka wear for my holiday coming up in a few weeks. This butterfly maxi was so soft, loose and comfortable – perfect for a warm 30 degree day!
I loved this colourful silky number, it would be perfect to take on holiday as it’s comfy enough to wear over a bikini and could easily be transformed into glam-casual evening wear with a pair of wedges and some arm candy.
This gorgeous maxi is another great summer dress, the colours are just divine and the style is so comfortably cool.
I loved the exotic pattern on this shift dress, the sheer red chiffon back detailing fluttered when I tried it on and would be so chic for cocktails with the girls or for a Christmas party.
This kaftan had the most exquisite hand embroidered detailing. I’ve never seen anything like it before, it’s truly a work of art!

Summer’s ultimate must have accessory is the Taka beach bag, I just love the beautiful colours and it’s the perfect size for holding everything you need for the beach.
