A one-of-a-kind contemporary korowai, thoughtfully designed to tell your story.
Our Custom Contemporary Korowai offers the opportunity to create a truly unique piece, handcrafted in our West Auckland studio and designed in collaboration with you.
Whether you're celebrating a significant achievement, honouring your whakapapa, representing your kura or organisation, or creating a special gift, we'll work alongside you to bring your vision to life. Together, we'll explore colours, materials, patterns and meaningful details to create a korowai that reflects your story and the occasion it will be worn for.
Every custom korowai is handcrafted using premium materials and created with exceptional attention to detail. As each design is made exclusively for its wearer, no two custom korowai are ever the same.
Available in Small to 3XL and offered in Quarter, Half and Full Length options, every custom order includes a personalised design consultation before production begins.
From our studio to your whānau, this is more than a garment. It is a taonga, created with intention and handcrafted to celebrate your story for generations to come.
