Our Story

The meaning of
Mesha

"I create swimwear for women who choose themselves."

The name MeshaSwims was born from something very personal to me. My beloved grandfather — who meant the world to me — was an Aries. And in Sanskrit, Mesha means "Aries".

He loved fishing, water, and being outdoors. Some of my happiest childhood memories are connected to him — the quiet moments near the water, watching him fish, feeling calm and safe.

MeshaSwims is my tribute to him — and to everything he gave me.

"I love combining patterns, textures, silhouettes, and unexpected details. This is the soul of my designs."

— Alexandra Vakhteev

The Designer

Hello, I'm

Traditional Denim Craftsmanship

Since childhood, I dreamed of creating my own clothing. I used to fill notebooks with dresses, shapes, and ideas, imagining entire collections long before I even knew what "fashion design" really meant.

Everything changed when my family and I moved to Los Angeles. There, I finally allowed myself to return to my true passion. I studied Fashion Design and Art, exploring color, textiles, sculpture, and experimental techniques.

Today, MeshaSwims is the realization of that childhood dream — a blend of structured precision and creative freedom, crafted for women who dare to be different.

"A MeshaSwims woman is not afraid to be different. She appreciates thoughtful design, art, comfort, and a bit of magic woven into her clothes."

I was skeptical about ordering swimwear online, but the size guide was spot-on. The Crazy Waves design is even more beautiful in person!
