Maori Traditional Wear

Piupiu: A skirt made from strips of flax. Piupiu is worn by both men and women and is a common item of clothing at Matariki celebrations. Korowai: A cloak made from woven flax or feathers. Korowai is a symbol of prestige and is often worn at significant events such as weddings and funerals. Hiapo: A bark cloth made from the paper mulberry tree.. The outfit was nominated for a Benson & Hedges Fashion Design Award in the After Five High Fashion category in 1987. Take a closer look. Learn more about us.

Maori Kākahu designed and manufactured locally in Ngati Kahungunu, Hawkes Bay, New Zealand. We produce local Māori clothing including Māori dresses, Māori t-shirts and more Māori kākahu.. Zeeland's museums, Straô and castles in Zeeland. Until halfway through the last century, people regularly wore traditional costume in Zeeland. Each area had it own dress, with variation in clothes and jewellery between islands, and from place to place. Today, the bonnets, gilts and aprons have all vanished from view, but not from memory.
