FAQ

What is Tlanu?

Tlanu is a Sydney-based fashion brand creating premium batik bikinis inspired by the rich traditional art of Sri Lankan batik. We blend heritage with modern swimwear design.

What makes your bikinis unique?

Our bikinis are made using authentic Sri Lankan batik, a handcrafted traditional art form. Every piece carries unique patterns, vibrant colours, and cultural storytelling — making each bikini one-of-a-kind.

Are you only based in Sydney?

Yes. Tlanu currently operates exclusively in Sydney, with production and dispatch happening locally. We plan to expand soon!

Do you ship Australia-wide?

Yes, we deliver to all states across Australia. Shipping fees and delivery times will be shown at checkout.

Do you ship internationally?

International shipping is currently limited, but we can arrange special orders upon request. Contact our support team for assistance.

Are all sizes available?

We offer a full range of sizes (XS to M or your exact range). Stock is limited because each batik design is handcrafted.

Is every bikini design the same?

No. Since batik is made by hand, each piece may have slight variations, making your bikini truly unique and not mass-produced.

How do I care for my batik bikini?

To maintain quality:
• Hand wash only
• Use mild detergent
• Do not wring
• Dry in shade
• Avoid chlorine pools for long periods
• Store away from direct sunlight
These steps protect the batik colours and fabric.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept major debit/credit cards, PayPal, and other secure online payment options available at checkout.

Can I return or exchange my bikini?

For hygiene reasons, returns/exchanges are accepted only for unused items with hygiene stickers intact.
Please check our Return Policy page for full details.
