“It is my intention to respectfully draw inspiration from my ancestors and their timeless lessons, and then transition these beautiful crafts into a present form. I pay particular attention to detailing through smocking, pleating, hand appliqué and beading and blend it with traditional raranga (weaving) in contemporary media, particularly Korowai (Maori cloak).I believe in clean cuts, creative and innovative pattern drafting and maximising the versatility of my fabrics" – Kiri Nathan
