Woven Art to Shine at Fashion Week with Harakeke Collection

The House of Harakeke collection by Shona Tāwhiao will feature six unique woven pieces at Fashion Week. This collaboration highlights a century of traditional weaving knowledge.

The pieces are the result of a partnership with the National Weaving School, part of NZMACI. They represent the rich heritage and skills passed down through generations. Fashion enthusiasts can expect to see a display that marries contemporary design with traditional techniques.

Tāwhiao aims to elevate the art of weaving and bring it into the modern fashion scene. The showcase promises to captivate audiences and encourage a deeper appreciation for this craftsmanship.

The event serves as a significant platform to celebrate Māori culture and creativity in Aotearoa. Attendees will have the opportunity to witness the blend of innovation and tradition in a theatrical setting.
