## Description

MANAAKI is a brand that celebrates Māori culture and heritage while bridging the gap between traditional clothing and contemporary daywear. Founded by Kat Tua, a proud Ngāti Kahu and Ngāti Raukawa descendant, MANAAKI was born out of a desire to reconnect with her roots and language. Inspired by Māori art, weaving, and storytelling, Kat's collections explore social and political subcultural movements, both past and present. Each piece is infused with hand-drawn prints, graphics, and knitwear, creating a casual yet meaningful range that reflects the spirit of the brand. The name MANAAKI, which translates to cherish and sustain for future generations in English, perfectly encapsulates the brand's ethos. With a commitment to sustainability, MANAAKI collaborates with ethical makers and sources natural fibers to create clothing that will biodegrade into the earth. Discover the essence of Māori culture and contemporary fashion with MANAAKI, exclusively available on MR PORTER.
