About Us
WELCOME TO THE SWANK STORE
Welcome to Swank Store, the ultimate destination for luxury resortwear designed to elevate your wardrobe with style and sophistication. Founded by John Sharma, a visionary with decades of experience in the fashion industry, Swank Store is built on a foundation of creativity, sustainability, and exceptional craftsmanship.
Our story
John's journey through fashion was anything but ordinary. He has a basic understanding of prints, fabrics, and silhouettes. He pursued a world of design in the path of Morocco and Italy, and bustling streets of India. He recognized the craft and art of India, and with that, he established his own design and manufacturing studio.
Ten years into his journey, in 2022, John unveiled Stella Moretti, a brand that took European elegance in resort wear and redelivered it for the 21st century. Each piece, hewing to his "timeless, sophisticated" aesthetic, melded all of the Mediterranean charm one might hope for with perfectly contemporary silhouettes. He was increasingly known for creating luxurious, travel-ready outfits that one could just as easily wear in Tbilisi as at the Met Gala.

In 2025, John is doing something audacious once more by launching new designs This collection, inspired by sunny, sandy Bondi's pure beach culture, pairs laid-back luxe Australian sensibility with sharply modern prints in luxe materials.
John’s expertise, vision, and relentless pursuit of perfection have made him a true icon in the resort wear industry. As Creative Director at The Swank Store, we are honoured to have access to his collections, which are not about blatant references to trends or styles. They are about the kind of travel and artistry that get to the real heart of that joy in dressing beautifully that you feel no matter where the journey leads.
