Where To Next For New Zealand Fashion

The CER agreement between New Zealand and Australia, signed in 1983, marked a pivotal shift in the country's fashion sector.

Within five years, most of New Zealand's clothing manufacturing industry had collapsed, unable to compete with a surge of lowcost, duty-free imports entering via Australia. While the agreement provided new export opportunities, it also exposed local businesses to intense offshore competition that many were ill-prepared for.

The result was the dismantling of domestic manufacturing capacity, which, to be honest, has never truly recovered. It forced the transition to offshore production for most fashion brands.

More than four decades later, the industry continues to struggle in the face of additional global economic headwinds. The recent announcement by US President Trump of a ten percent tariff on all imports has raised concerns for all New Zealand exporters. Although fashion is not among the country's largest export categories to the United States, higher costs and tighter margins could impact premium apparel brands targeting that market.

At the same time, global demand for fashion remains uneven. The overall market opportunity in key export destinations such as Australia, the United States and the United Kingdom has not substantially recovered since the pandemic.

The UK is a challenging market, with a few dominant brands holding a significant share. However, the UK is considered one of the most progressive markets regarding sustainability

regulations, and this could create opportunities for New Zealand labels focused on ethical production and transparency.

There are more promising signs in Australia and Canada, where consumer behaviour has shifted from mass-market apparel to higherquality, mid-range fashion. These markets have shown increasing interest in sustainability and are more aligned with New Zealand's values-driven approach. In particular, Canada's apparel market has returned to pre-COVID levels, offering more stability for exporters looking to grow.

Brands like Kowtow are already gaining traction by aligning themselves with long-term sustainability goals rather than short-term trend cycles. Their business model, which emphasises traceability, responsible production and direct-to-consumer relationships, reflects a broader evolution within the sector.

New Zealand's fashion industry has barely survived disruption, from the structural shifts of the CER era to today's complex global landscape. With ongoing challenges in traditional markets and new pressures from rising tariffs, the industry is again being called to adapt quickly.

Recently, I've heard a few comments across the industry along the lines of, 'well, it's up to the next generation now'. Are we all to give up so quickly? To roll

over and let it be the next generation's problem? The question is, where will the New Zealand fashion industry pivot? With the loss of so many skilled

ANIMAL PRINT

RECLAIMS SPOTLIGHT

Bold, confident, and timeless. Animal print has once again pounced into the spotlight, and according to Anna Baird of Bared Footwear, it’s more than just a passing phase. As the Founder of Bared Footwear, Baird offered sharp insight into the staying power of this enduring style.

Baird agreed that the resurgence of animal prints like leopard indicated a broader shift in how consumers express themselves. “Embracing bold prints like leopard signals a move towards individuality and confidence in fashion choices,” she said.

While fashion has always been cyclical, Baird argued that animal print has transcended trend status altogether.

“Animal print has cemented its place as a timeless element in fashion, continually reinvented to stay relevant.”

This reinvention has taken many forms over the years, and recent iterations have embraced new finishes and unexpected materials. “Modern takes include high-shine patent leathers and elegant satin finishes, offering fresh textures and a contemporary edge to classic prints,” she explained.

The versatility of animal print is central to its appeal. “Animal print is the ultimate neutral with a twist,” said Baird. “Its versatility allows it to be both classic and edgy, ensuring it never truly goes out of style.”

Far from being a one-note look, different animal patterns also offer wearers a way to fine-tune their personal aesthetic. “Leopard exudes classic sophistication with a hint of daring, while zebra offers a more graphic, bold statement,” Baird

noted. “Each print allows wearers to showcase different facets of their style personality.”

In the current fashion climate, where nostalgia and self-expression walk hand-in-hand, bold patterns resonate with consumers more than ever. “In times of fashion revival, bold patterns like animal print offer a sense of empowerment and fun,” said Baird. “Resonating with the current desire for self-expression.”

Pop culture has played no small part in the print’s enduring popularity. “Icons like Kate Moss and Fran Drescher have immortalised leopard print, and recent runway shows have embraced it, propelling it back into the fashion forefront.”

Despite its history, animal print continues to evolve—and so does the way people wear it. “There’s a balance,” Baird added when asked whether consumers were leaning into louder or subtler interpretations. “Some opt for statement pieces like leopard-print flats to elevate an outfit, while others choose more restrained takes to add texture and interest.”

With fashion leaning back into maximalism and personal flair, it’s no surprise that animal print is stalking the runways—and the streets—once again. And as Baird made clear, this is one trend with real staying power.

DARK HAMPTON: THE POWER OF THREE

Dark Hampton emerged at the start of 2019 and has since morphed into a leading accessory label.

Founders Amie Bingham, Amanda Barker and Kate Brown were initially drawn to the word Hampton, as it represented many things; a destination, a lifestyle, or even a last name. It naturally brought a sense of timeless style to mind, which felt right for the brand.

The word Dark brought an edge, a contrast, and a modern twist. Together, Dark Hampton felt like the perfect mix of classic and bold, refined and a little unexpected. The label’s scarves are named after the surnames of friends and family, so Hampton tied in beautifully with that personal touch.

Dark Hampton has evolved naturally over time. Bingham, Barker and Brown each brought their own individual style and ideas, which have added depth and variety to everything they create. Since

starting, Dark Hampton has collaborated with some incredible people who have brought their own perspective and creativity to the brand. The trio said that while they trust their instincts and design what they love, they also stay inspired by global trends and what people are wearing and loving around the world.

Having three designers has been a valuable asset to Dark Hampton, and has made decision-making easier.

They said their skill sets complement each other, and they really trust one another’s perspectives. Depending on what’s happening in the office, whether it’s design, ordering stock, working with retailers, or managing social media, one of the three will naturally take the lead. Over time, that trust has grown as they tackled challenges and celebrated milestones together.

The design process is based largely on their instincts, however, all three admitted it wasn’t always a perfectly mapped-out process. They explore what products and styles are selling well, what the next season may bring, and customer demand. Occasionally, they have a design idea first, and that will naturally lead to the right fabric. Silk scarves have proven to be popular among customers in the past year, and the label has adapted to growing demand.

Pink and red have continuously been popular colours for the label, as well as neutral tones.

Black and white was another combo they often want to move away from, but it’s consistently one of their best sellers, so it always finds its way back in.

Barker’s favourite item in the Dark Hampton range is the Clements Wool Scarf. A classic beige colour, very soft, and perfect for keeping warm.

“It’s such a versatile piece that goes with everything in her wardrobe,” said Barker.

Brown was drawn to The Prentice Cashmere Modal Scarf. She described it as the ideal addition to a classic outfit, bringing a touch of vibrant colour. Brown added that as she often wears a lot of black, white, and navy, it complements those tones perfectly.

For Bingham, her favourite is The DH x Carrie Broomhall The Finn Silk Petite Scarf. She said she loves to wear it around her neck to elevate her outfit, in her hair for a stylish twist, or tied to her handbag to add that extra bit of flair.

Dark Hampton has collaborated with artist Carrie Broomhall. They described the experience as overwhelming in the best way, as Broomhall has many pieces that could inspire particular designs. The collaboration focused on specific corners or sections of Broomhall’s work that stood out, and that could translate onto silk. The artwork chosen was influenced by the colours the label needed to add to its collection.

In five years, Bingham, Barker and Brown want Dark Hampton to be the go-to accessories brand for everyday luxury in New Zealand and Australia, with a presence in other parts of the world as well. They have envisioned their pieces being showcased by the most beautiful retailers in every town, and they hope customers continue to wear and cherish what they’ve bought for years to come.

NEW AIR NEW ZEALAND UNIFORM OFFICIALLY UNVEILED

The new Air New Zealand uniform has been revealed by designer Emilia Wickstead and tā moko artist Te Rangitu Netana.

Air New Zealand has officially revealed its highly anticipated new uniform. A collection that has embodied the airline's profound sense of pride in New Zealand and strong cultural heritage. The bold print, colour, and exquisite design showcase the very best of New Zealand to the world.

Designed by the world-renowned Emilia Wickstead, with bespoke hand painted prints from tā moko artist Te Rangitu Netana, the uniform marks the beginning of a new era for Air New Zealand. It shines a light on what makes New Zealand unique to create a collection that is anything but uniform.

Worn by 6,000 Air New Zealanders around the world, the airline's

uniforms have always been a core part of its identity. They're worn with immense pride and are always instantly recognisable. Emilia and Te Rangitu's design carries on this strong tradition.

Key pieces in the collection, such as 'The Fine Print – Dress', showcase Emilia's mastery of her craft, featuring the intricate and meaningful kōwhai print. 'The Collective Thread – Shirt' features striking purapura whetū patterns, designed to be worn by any cabin crew or ground staff member, highlighting the versatility of the collection.

The Ie Faitaga is to be trialled by Pasifika team members and supports the airline's commitment to inclusivity. New designs for pilots include a bold

pinstriped suit, with a kiwi feather print lining, symbolising leadership and prestige.

Air New Zealand Chief Executive Greg Foran said this uniform represents the best of Air New Zealand and Aotearoa.

"For us, this is more than just a uniform. It is a celebration of our people, our culture, and our values.

Air New Zealand has never been about standing still or blending in. We have a tradition of being bold, showcasing what makes us unique, and celebrating our team members. Our new uniform encapsulates everything we stand for – a combination of innovation, rich

cultural heritage, and a deep sense of pride and belonging."

Designer Emilia Wickstead said the Air New Zealand uniform was a passion project and one that she has always dreamed of working on.

"Designing the Air New Zealand uniform has been an incredibly personal project for me. At the heart of it was a deep respect for the heritage and the unique identity of New Zealand's people and land. It was essential to me that this uniform tells a meaningful story about Aotearoa. I wanted to create a uniform that empowers individuals and inspires pride in all who wear it and see it. For

me, good design should always evoke a sense of pride and occasion, and I believe this uniform will do just that."

As part of this collaboration, Te Rangitu Netana's meticulously hand-drawn prints bring powerful narratives to life, reflecting Aotearoa, Air New Zealand, and its people through storytelling woven into Emilia Wickstead's design vision.

"Each print is a story, deeply rooted in the traditions and values of Aotearoa," said Netana. "The patterns on this uniform are a reflection of the land, the sea, and the connections that bind us all as Kiwi. As a Māori artist on the world stage, I feel a deep responsibility in ensuring our culture is represented in a way that is authentic and meaningful. I'm proud that these designs have found a place in Air New Zealand's uniform, bringing te ao Māori to designs that show up all over the world."

The Air New Zealand uniform collection features a bold and uplifting mix of vibrant colours, creative prints, and elevated tailoring. Key pieces include:

• The Fine Print – Dress: Featuring the tūī knot neckline and the kōwhai print, inspired by the story of Ngatoroi-Rangi, symbolising protection, responsibility, and belonging.

• The Collective Thread – Shirt: A versatile, inclusive design with bold prints and a tūī knot neckline, designed to be worn by any crew or ground staff member.

• The Wrap Around – Trench: A sleek and stylish piece with a purple pinstripe, offering both craftsmanship and comfort.

• The Woven One – Ie Faitaga: A cultural garment to be trialled by Pacific people celebrating the rich heritage of the Pacific community

• The Runway Cut – Waistcoat: A new waistcoat for male crew members and ground staff cloaking the wearer in mana and authority.

The new uniform has been revealed ahead of the onboard wearer trial, commencing in May 2025. Following a period of testing and feedback from uniform wearers across the airline, the new uniform will be rolled out across Air New Zealand's network, with team members proudly wearing it from 2026.

MARA 1-3796

the heritage codes intact, but the sheer layering brought in a touch of conceptual protection — an ethereal barrier rather than physical armour. It was romantic utilitarianism, wrapped in Parisian finesse.

Vautrait leaned heavily into oversized draping and cocooning volume. In an all-over plaid ensemble that blurred the lines between coat, scarf, and trouser,

Threads available from

the silhouette felt engulfing — as though the model wore a fortress of fabric colour matched to Mara 17-1274. There was warmth and weight here, with clever tailoring buried beneath swathes of wool. It was utility through maximalism, where size became the shield.

Carven’s contribution was quietly confident, playing with proportion and unexpected colour pairings. A soft

pink blazer softened the utilitarian undertones of a high-neck knit and slouchy brown trousers, which is a perfect match to Mara 12-707. The structure was still there — in the sharp shoulders, clean lines, and deliberate layering — but it whispered rather than shouted. It suggested that utility doesn’t always need to be stark; it can be soft, refined, and surprisingly gentle.

WEAVING COLOUR AND CONSCIOUS DESIGN INTO THE HEART OF TAUPO

Colour has long been a key ingredient in shaping retail identity, and in the case of EDNA Store in Taupō, it’s a foundational thread.

This bold, forward-thinking concept by KANAT Studio has earned a coveted finalist spot in the Commercial Interior – Workplace and Retail category of the 39th annual Dulux Colour Awards, recognised for its playful yet deeply intentional approach to colour and sustainability.

Held across Australasia, the Dulux Colour Awards are a benchmark for design excellence in the built environment. This year’s programme saw nearly 500 entries, with 88 finalists selected across eight categories by industry experts. For KANAT Studio,

it’s not just an aesthetic triumph. It’s a story of connection, innovation, and brand identity brought to life.

EDNA, short for Environmental DNA, has carved out a unique space in New Zealand’s fashion landscape. Creativity and sustainability are stitched into every fibre of the brand. That ethos is echoed throughout the new Taupō store, where the concept of "Thread" serves as the guiding principle, connecting textiles, people, and place in one cohesive environment.

The Dulux palette used in the space strikes a careful balance: Dulux Passion Flower, a soft, lilac-toned hue, sets a welcoming base, while overhead, Dulux Sequesta, a raw, citrus-inflected green-yellow, adds a fresh, unexpected pop. Soft blush fabrics are suspended above and throughout, tying into the thread narrative literally and metaphorically.

But the colour story doesn’t stop there. The store's fixed elements, like

racks and display fixtures, are coated in bold Dulux Powdercoat colours: Sky Gloss, Dulux Leaf, and Terracotta. These vibrant tones intentionally clash, creating a high-energy environment that encourages exploration and individual expression. The result is a space that feels more like an art installation than a traditional retail store.

At the centre, the counter provides a moment of calm, a glowing focal point made of Cleanstone, a recycled plastic material that champions the brand’s commitment to sustainability. Recycled materials, including Save Board made from juice cartons, feature prominently, turning waste into wonder and reinforcing the store’s ecoconscious ethos.

Lighting, materials, and architectural form work in concert to deliver a tactile, sensory-rich experience that mirrors EDNA’s mission: celebrating individuality, creativity, and environmental responsibility.

LSKD TO OPEN THIRD NZ STORE IN MOUNT MAUNGANUI

LSKD, the Australasian activewear brand renowned for its highperformance sportswear, is thrilled to announce the opening of its third New Zealand-based retail store, located in the heart of Mount Maunganui.

This opening follows the massive success of LSKD's Christchurch store, which saw an incredible turnout when it opened in March 2025 with over 900 people attending, continuing the momentum after the record-breaking Takapuna launch in November 2024.

The Mount Maunganui store, the brand’s second in the North Island, is set to open its doors on May 31st. This new location will allow LSKD to connect with an even wider audience of active, adventure-seeking Kiwis and continue to spread its message of inspiring people to be "1% better every day." This is the twenty-second store globally for the popular activewear brand.

Jason Daniel, CEO and Founder of LSKD, shared his excitement about the brand's ongoing growth in New Zealand. “The support we received from Kiwis at our Christchurch opening was truly overwhelming, and we’re eager to bring that same energy to Mount Maunganui,” said Daniel. “The community has been so welcoming, and it’s clear that LSKD is quickly becoming a staple for New Zealanders who are passionate about fitness, sport, and adventure.”

With the Mount Maunganui opening, LSKD continues to build on its strong relationship with New Zealanders. Prior to opening its first physical store, the brand had already achieved over $10 million in online sales to Kiwi customers.

“Opening a store in Mount Maunganui is another exciting chapter in our journey," added Daniel. "It's all about connecting with the community and allowing people to experience our brand firsthand."

Beyond expanding its physical presence, LSKD is committed to elevating how it develops its own fabrics—ensuring that quality remains at the core of every piece, from fit to function. The fitness community values high-performance apparel, and LSKD continues to innovate, introducing new fabrics designed to support movement, durability, and comfort. This dedication to fabric technology reinforces the brand’s mission to empower athletes and active individuals with gear that

performs at the highest level.

From its humble beginnings, LSKD has grown into a globally recognised brand that exceeds $100 million in sales. The company was born from Jason Daniel's love for BMX freestyle and motocross, where he earned the nickname "Loose Kid". The brand has since expanded across Australasia and the U.S., with its New Zealand presence growing rapidly due to a strong online following and high demand for its products.

The Mount Maunganui store will feature LSKD’s full range of activewear designed for all areas of life: personal, professional, health, and relationships. The brand's mission is to inspire that commitment for growth every day and support our community with the highest quality technical performance fabrics and fits. LSKD will host exclusive events and promotions to celebrate the grand opening, including a highly anticipated "tights and shorts swap"—an initiative that encourages the community to trade in old activewear for new LSKD

pieces. This sustainability initiative was a significant hit at both the Takapuna store in Auckland and the Ōtautahi store in Christchurch and is expected to be equally successful in Mount Maunganui.

Shoppers can also enjoy special promotions, limited-edition Mount Maunganui-themed merchandise, and exciting in-store surprises.

LSKD is committed to fostering an active, sustainable lifestyle, focusing on hiring locally and supporting New Zealand athletes. Inspired by Kiwi sporting icons like the All Blacks, LSKD’s values of teamwork, resilience, and excellence are embedded in the brand’s operations. Staff training includes insights from James Kerr's bestselling book Legacy, which explores the All Blacks' winning culture.

“Mount Maunganui is full of people who love to get out and move, and we’re proud to be part of that community,” he said. “We can’t wait to meet our community at the Mount and inspire them to be 1% better every day.”

MAGNETIC[+!] AFTERGLOW CLEANSER

Dermalogica is known for revolutionising the skin care industry since it launched in 1986 with its innovative formulations. The skincare giant has launched an all-new Magnetic[+!] Afterglow Cleanser.

The new product is a moisturebonding cleansing cream designed to transform your daily skin care regimen.

Powered by Cellular HydraBond Technology, this advanced formula acts like a magnet to help skin retain hydration. The result: skin that feels refreshed, hydrated, and perfectly prepped for the next steps in your regimen.

“Your skin naturally carries a negative charge, which can make it harder for active ingredients to cling to the skin,” said Caroline Parker, Head of Education for Dermalogica New Zealand.

“By using Cellular HydraBond Technology with positively-charged Hyaluronic Acid, Magnetic[+!] Afterglow Cleanser bridges this gap – helping skin retain moisture more effectively and preparing it for the next steps in your regimen, so that you can get more out of your skin care.”

Formulated with cleansing Murumuru Butter and Oat,

Magnetic[+!] Afterglow Cleanser’s refreshing, creamy formula gently washes away impurities. At the same time, a blend of Phyto Mucin (a plantbased alternative to snail mucin, known for its hydrating and skin-repairing properties), Lotus Root Extract, and 10% Glycerin attracts moisture for a lasting afterglow.

In a recent consumer study, 92 percent of participants felt that their skin was better primed for the rest of their skin care routine and that their skin was hydrated and nourished after using the new cleanser. This unique formula truly redefines the cleansing step. After the study, 87 percent of participants agreed they would replace their current cleanser with Magnetic[+!] Afterglow Cleanser.

Key ingredients include Cleansing Murumuru Butter and Oat, Phyto Mucin Blend with Lotus Root Extract and 10% glycerin, and Cellular HydraBond Technology with Positively-Charged Hyaluronic Acid.

LUSH LAUNCHES NEW SIGNATURE SCENTS

Lush has launched a brand new fragrance range, including four new fragrances in its core range, available in all Lush stores and online. Lush perfumes are made in-house, at first out of necessity, but now out of love and appreciation for the artistry of fine fragrance

They are inspired by literature, music and life events. The perfumes contain beautiful essential oils and absolutes, which Lush sources from family businesses and local farmers where possible, prioritising ingredients that are lovely for the customer and beneficial to the community.

The new fragrances in the collection were invented by Lush’s three inhouse perfumers: Lush Co-founder Mark Constantine OBE, who created many iconic Lush scents since the start in 1995 and two female in-house perfumers, Emma Vincent and Alina Gliwinska. In a predominantly maledominated industry, Vincent and Gliwinska have created some of Lush’s most loved fragrances. Vincent has created customer favourite fragrances including “Turmeric Latte” and Gliwinska created the fragrance “Alina”, created for every generation to enjoy.

CHELSEA MORNING, $50/30ML, $100/100ML

In-house perfumer Emma Vincent created this gourmand-style scent inspired by the lyrics of the Joni Mitchell Song of the same name, particularly the line “and the sun

poured in like butterscotch and stuck to all my senses”. It’s a sweet, citrusy, caramel fragrance with Tonka and Lemon Myrtle that both uplifts and provides comfort.

VEGAN LEATHER JACKET, $75/30ML, $150/100ML

Lush co-founder and in-house perfumer Mark Constantine was inspired by the line in Gunga Din by The Byrds: “Have breakfast with me mamma, I hope they’ll let us in, I’ve got a leather jacket on, I know that it’s a sin”. It made him think that as a vegetarian company, many of the employees and customers don’t wear real leather, and this inspired him to make a leather-inspired, 100% vegan fragrance with clove, tonka and tobacco absolute.

“Vegan Leather Jacket is probably Lush’s greatest work since Breath of God and a masterpiece for the ages” – Luca Turin, perfume critic and coauthor of ‘Perfumes: An A-Z Guide’ and ‘Perfumes: The Guide’.

VEGAN LEATHER JACKET APPAREL OIL, $130

To offer a different way to wear a perfume, the Vegan Leather Jacket

fragrance has been set into an oil base with organic cold pressed jojoba oil, specifically designed to scent a vegan leather jacket. To use, simply add a few drops of the oil to a clean cloth and rub onto your jacket.

NO WAY TO SAY GOODBYE,

$50/30ML, $100/100ML

This bittersweet scent was invented by Emma Vincent, including rose and blackcurrant. As soon as she showed it to Mark Constantine, he smelled it and was struck by how much it reminded him of the close relationships he’s had with key people in his life and how it can be difficult finding the words or the best way to say goodbye. It also reminded him of the Leonard Cohen song of the same name. This fragrance is a lesson to everyone that we always create our own memories and connections with a fragrance.

FRESH AS,

$65/30ML, $100/100ML

Revitalising fir needle absolute and tagetes oils mingle to surround you with the bracing draw of nature. If any scent can embody the freshest of forests, snapping sticks underfoot and the warmth of a snuggly scarf, then this is it.

MOOD CRYSTAL

Auckland-based label Stolen Girlfriends Club is renowned for its bold, androgynous rock and roll style. The brand has now turned its focus to its jewellery line and announced its latest rendition of its iconic Love Claw Collection.

Initially introduced in 2010, the Love Claw series has become a hallmark collection for the brand. These bold statement pieces feature beautifully faceted gemstones gripped by fierce, sculptural claws. The aesthetic is a collision of serenity and severity, something pure and precious, protected by a stronger force.

The newest iteration of the Love Claw collection debuts the Mood Crystal, a playful yet nostalgic reimagining of the iconic 1990s mood ring. Inspired by the wearer’s emotional state, the Mood Crystal is a dynamic, colour-changing gemstone that shifts in response to the wearer's temperature and mood changes.

Stolen Girlfriends Club has seamlessly layered natural, clear crystal with a thermochromic liquid that changes hues based on temperature fluctuations driven by the wearer's feelings and mood, creating a mesmerising, personalised colour display. Paired with the collection’s signature claw setting,

this innovative design introduces a new, unique dimension to a beloved classic. Available in solid sterling silver and 18k gold plating, these captivating stones, paired with the striking Love Claw setting, deliver a contemporary twist on a beloved classic, combining the best of nostalgia with modern craftsmanship.

TRANS-SEASONAL WARDROBE MAINSTAYS

Bassike’s latest Winter 2025 collection has been designed with longevity in mind, with a focus on layering and contrasting fabrications and textures.

Creative Director Deborah

Sams wanted to convey a richness in the collection, using substantial and weighty fabrications that can be layered, deep, motley tints on denim, and details such as studs and contrast panels.

Minimalist styling has allowed signature pieces such as leather separates to stand out and become trans-seasonal mainstays of the everyday wardrobe.

Another focus has been on recreating classic shapes and reinterpreting them in an elevated and modern way, utilising interesting fabrications with special consideration of texture, colour, and treatment.

“I love the variety of denim washes we have developed for this season,

particularly the caramel motley wash. Multiple washes, processes and treatments are applied to create the ‘aged’, ‘worn in’ and ‘acid wash’ appearance that gives this vintage appearance and soft hand feel,” said Sams.

“My favourites are always the leather pieces - the carob leather aviator bomber and the studded leather mini skirt.”

The collection has also interpreted the shrunken silhouette and paired it with its Bassike signature slouch. This has given it a balance while leaning into the androgynous aesthetic Bassike has been synonymous with.

“We like to deliver collections that have continuity and that our customers

can feel confident in knowing they will be able to find fashion-forward styles that are reinterpreted and presented in a new, fresh and modern way,” she said.

“Our collections are intended to appeal to the everyday person, anyone looking for an elevated, utilitarian wardrobe and wanting to invest in design-led pieces they can wear on high rotation.”

Sams added that, as with Bassike’s other collections, the entire organic cotton jersey programme has been made locally in Australia. The cashmere used this season was sourced from a vertical farm in Inner Mongolia, and the organic denim was also made in Melbourne.

WITH WOOL AWARD, ROYAL MELBOURNE INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA

As an emerging designer, Christina Suntovski wants to see an emphasis on what binds communities and individuals together within the fashion and textiles industry.

“We are all craving deeply sensory, interpersonal experiences,” she said. “I believe there are opportunities for growth, especially within the industry post-pandemic, to move towards slow, meaningful, and localised consumption and making. Dressing Dance embodies this ethos through ethical production, waste minimisation, and maximising garment longevity.”

So far, a highlight in her career was being selected to participate in the International Christian Dior Couture & UNESCO Women@Dior Mentorship and Leadership program. The initiative highlights the crucial importance of education in imagining a more sustainable and united world. This opportunity allowed her to hone her leadership skills and gain a global perspective on design, sustainability and the role of women in shaping the future of creative industries.

“Throughout the programme, I was mentored by Kathy Wang, the National Retail Director for Christian Dior Couture Oceania, who guided me in areas not taught elsewhere, such as self-confidence, autonomy, and taking ownership of my career. This experience has been transformative in my personal and professional growth.”

CHIH-YAO WU

DUNEDIN AIRPORT SECOND PRIZE SHIH CHIEN UNIVERSITY, TAIWAN

Growing up in Taiwan, Chih-Yao Wu was deeply influenced by Buddhism. From a young age, they were taught Buddhist philosophies such as "karma and reincarnation," "form is emptiness," and "the equality of all beings." Chih-Yao Wu particularly enjoys the practice of worship. “I love observing the architecture and design of temples and statues and find great peace in the act of worship itself.”

At iD Fashion Week, Chih-Yao Wu presented a collection called NIRVANA. In their collection statement, Chih-Yao Wu said: “Buddhism pursues nirvana. Greediness, spitefulness, and witlessness need to be annihilated from human nature, so that access to nirvana, achieving the supreme self.”

Fashion has always been their dream, and they started early on in life by collecting various magazines. “I remember staying up until 3 a.m. as a student just to watch a live broadcast of a PRADA show before going to sleep.”

“I often wonder: what is NIRVANA? What is the ultimate goal of spiritual cultivation? We understand transcendence as a profound experience of self-reflection, but what philosophy underpins this concept?”

With these thoughts in mind, Chih-Yao Wu created this series. Deconstructed and refined the common surface symbols of Buddhism, then extended them using its teachings to develop new forms of expression.

Christina Suntovski entered the iD International Emerging Designer Awards because it represents a globally renowned platform that celebrates innovation, craftsmanship and forward-thinking design in fashion. This award aligns with Suntovski’s commitment to exploring the intersection between personal narratives, cultural heritage and the wider context of contemporary art and design.

As a designer, Suntovski’s work is deeply informed by personal lived experiences and is situated within the multilayered realm of contemporary art and design. Her practice explores the dynamic interplay between critical reflection and poetic abstraction, working to uncover new ways of thinking, being and creating.

“My Honours collection, ‘Dressing Dance’, is an embodiment of this vision, integrating movement, storytelling, and emotion into wearable art that transcends traditional boundaries. My dedication to innovation and nuanced design underscores my commitment to contributing meaningfully to the future of fashion.”

OTAGO POLYTECHNIC, NEW ZEALAND

Ciaran Naylor’s collection ‘New Patina’ is a reimagining of early 20th-century working clothes in a modern fashion context, blending ruggedness with elegant contemporary male dress. The collection draws inspiration from photographers Dorothea Lange and August Sander, who documented working class people in the mid-1900s. Particularly influenced by how these photographers apotheosised their seemingly ordinary subjects, the collection seeks to do the same with the clothing these people wore - bringing these archetypes to the forefront with a contemporary perspective to evoke a deeper appreciation for their enduring influence on menswear, and promote a more mindful relationship between people and their clothes.

This collection uses predominantly natural fibres: cotton, linen, and wool. “The painted fabric is an upcycled drop cloth given to me by my Pops, a painter by trade for most of his life,” said Naylor. “I used second-hand notions (buttons and zips) throughout the collection, and the fusible interfacing and elastic are biodegradable, sourced from Paper Scissors Cloth in New Zealand.”

Originally from Tītahi Bay, Porirua, Naylor moved to Ōtepoti to study in 2020. Having recently completed their Design degree at Otago Polytechnic’s School of Fashion, Naylor is eager to experience as much of the industry and wider fashion world as possible. The iD Awards was a great opportunity to meet fellow practitioners from all over the world and be featured on one of the most visible and exciting stages for fashion offered in Aotearoa.

UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

Handle with Care is a three-look ready-to-wear collection by Gemdaddyslim that explores the emotional complexities of sisterhood, nostalgia, and the balance between presence and absence. Inspired by the symbolism of objects left behind, such as a cherished handbag, polaroids, and lace ribbon, the collection evokes shared memories through rich textures and textile innovation. Featuring velvet, leather, piping, and pleated fabrics, it combines sensory design with sustainable practices, utilising deadstock materials and natural dyeing methods. The result is a timeless narrative brought to life through thoughtful silhouettes and intricate details, capturing the depth of connection and change.

The collection was made entirely by Bartholomew, her Nonna, and Auntie in my Sydney-based studio, ensuring full control over the quality and production process.

“My biggest inspirations are the women in my life,” said Bartholomew. “Their strength, individuality and personal style deeply influenced my design process. Whether it's my sisters, who have shaped my perspective on connection and memory, or my Nonna whose work as a seamstress inspired my early appreciation for craftsmanship, they remind me of the importance of storytelling through clothing. My designs are a tribute to these relationships, blending nostalgia with the celebration of femininity and resilience.”

‘The Art of Passive Resistance’ collection by Vince Ropitini investigates the intersection of contemporary Māori art and fashion design, inspiring the regeneration of mātauranga Māori. Central to the collection is the legacy of Parihaka, a community whose resilience and teachings of Te Whiti o Rongomai and Tohu Kākahi continue to shape both Māori art and activism. Ropitini explores the enduring influence of Parihaka on Toi Māori, highlighting themes of resistance and endurance through silhouette and textile manipulation, drawing inspiration from the rich history of Māori political protest.

“The core of my brand ethos is Māori design,” said Ropitini. “Infusing tikanga into all aspects of my development. In particular, for this collection is contemporary Māori art and the community of Parihaka.” This is seen through the use of line and text - inspired by Ralph Hotere, distressing, patch working and badgesinspired by deconstruction and punk ethos, and other handpainted or screen-printed imagery drawn from Parihaka. “I am also inspired by the Zoot Suit, reflected through the silhouettes used for my Tailored Garments.”

The collection has a major focus on cultural sustainability and regeneration, which not only this collection acknowledges but the whole ethos of my brand is built upon.

"LACING 3.0" explores the possibility of fold lace applications on regular garments. Fold Lace is an authentic technique, examines the modern interpretation of traditional craftsmanship with a new garment construction method. A series of functional stitching and folding techniques are developed to create surfaces and sculptural pieces while remaining a zero-waste production. In terms of sustainability, minimising production wastage and premeditating the biodegradability of garments are also key focuses of the collection. The collection takes a slow fashion approach to celebrate craftsmanship. It is an interpretation of artisanal fashion, sustainability, skills and persistence.

The nature of the fold lace technique and materials inspires the structures and forms. The artisan has studied its properties and created garments guided by fold laces. Also, the red thread reflects veins, which connect the body parts to be flexible and functional, as in fold lace.

The collection was made in a co-working studio in Hong Kong. Fold lace and smocking, as zero-waste techniques, were adapted to create garments and features. The fold lace patterns are designed to have the same angle at the beginning and at the end, so off-cut is eliminated. Ribbon is chosen because of its woven, fine edges and continuity, so the production wastage of traditional garments from selvedges and seam allowance are minimised.

encourages both wearers and onlookers to engage in learning and understanding, inspiring the regeneration of Mātauranga Māori.”

“I think it goes without saying that I am incredibly proud of my culture and that I am able to share my story with the world through a creative medium I love doing.”

YU CHEN XU

OTAGO POLYTECHNIC PEOPLE’S CHOICE AWARD

SHIH CHIEN UNIVERSITY, TAIWAN

‘Camouflage’ by Yu Chen Xu was inspired by the psychological and social conflicts in Pride and Prejudice, and explores the tension between appearance and authenticity. Themes of self-awareness and identity shape the designs, reflecting the contrast between external facades and inner

truths. Featuring innovative knitting techniques like onepiece construction and sustainable materials such as RE PET and light-sensitive yarns, the collection symbolises the fluidity of identity in changing social contexts. Pastel hues and metallic accents convey emotional depth, while asymmetry and exaggerated forms highlight individuality. Celebrating diversity and self-expression, the collection encourages wearers to embrace their authentic selves.

“The garments are knitted using zero-waste techniques, ensuring minimal fabric waste,” said Xu.

YU-HSUAN WENG

PROPERTY BROKER’S MOST COMMERCIAL COLLECTION

SHIH CHIEN UNIVERSITY, TAIWAN

While towering skyscrapers dominate Taipei's urban landscape, it's the weathered street houses that evoke nostalgia. Their worn brick walls, rusty tin roofs, and vineclad fences tell the story of time. Inspired by these old buildings, a clothing collection was created using classic denim materials that, through washing and brushing, capture the wear and charm of the past. These garments reflect Taipei's old city's unique style and essence, blending history with contemporary fashion.

Yu-Hsuan Weng’s collection called Qingshi Old Dream embodies both strength and durability while also carrying the marks of time. Through the passage of years, it develops a warm, nostalgic hue that transforms the clothing into something timeless and enduring. Each piece is carefully washed to enhance its vintage character. Functionality is key, with a thoughtful design incorporating multiple pockets, offering ample storage space to reduce the need for bags, making it practical for everyday use.

bracing for impact: how to react to tariff turmoil

As global economic uncertainty escalates due to Trump-era tariffs, industries across the board are bracing for impact.

Retailers are navigating volatile conditions that are squeezing margins and complicating pricing strategies. There is less room for error and more pressure than ever to protect your margins.

WHAT’S THE LATEST ON TARIFFS AND RETAIL?

Keeping up with the latest effects has been challenging due to policy whiplash.

On April 9th, a 90-day pause on proposed tariffs was announced for all countries except China, Mexico, and Canada. In the interim, a 10% levy is in place.

China has been the most affected, with total tariffs currently at 125%.

Trump also signed an executive order ending the de minimis regulations for China and Hong Kong, effective May 2nd – yet another blow to the clothing industry.

While many countries, including Vietnam, are in trade negotiations with the US, China and Vietnam leaders met this week to sign agreements to strengthen cooperation in supply chains and railroad development.

How Will This Affect Retail Specifically?

The Trump-era tariffs significantly impact U.S. apparel retailers, especially those sourcing from China, Vietnam, and Bangladesh.

• The top 30 apparel retailers in the U.S. source heavily from Asia.

• China was traditionally dominant, but Vietnam has overtaken it as a preferred hub due to rising Chinese costs and previous tariffs.

• Other significant sourcing countries are Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Central America.

Here is a breakdown of the initially imposed tariffs on key apparelproducing countries before the 90-day pause:

• China: 36%, now 125%

• Vietnam: 46%

• Bangladesh: 37%

• Cambodia: 49%

• India: 26%

• Indonesia: 32%

• Sri Lanka: 44%

• Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador: 10%

Aside from China, these countries currently sit at 10% pending negotiations during the 90-day pause.

HOW CAN RETAIL INTELLIGENCE HELP?

Without the right tools, retailers are left scrambling to adjust pricing and stay compliant with shifting regulations. An AI-powered retail intelligence tool, however, provides the real-time insights retailers need to make precise, confident moves. Track initial price changes, monitor discounting depth and breadth across the market, and stay agile in an unpredictable retail landscape.

• Actively Monitor Tariff Effects

EDITED enables retailers to stay up-to-date on new product arrivals, pricing, and discounting fluctuations alongside category performance across each major market and take action accordingly. Check out the Tariff Tracker here.

• Stay Agile With Your Pricing

Customers will be more pricesensitive. Know who your most profitable customer cohorts are and what they buy. With real-time pricing intelligence, you can also adjust to tariff shifts and maintain competitive pricing while protecting margins.

• Localize Your Strategy

Access global market data to pinpoint pricing and assortment variations as tariffs impact markets differently. Localize your ranges and explore new and emerging markets for alternative expansion strategies.

• Strategically Optimize Your Categories

By pinpointing which products are most affected by tariffs, you can swiftly adjust your assortments to focus on high-demand, low-tariff items, safeguarding profits and preventing costly overstock.

These are just four of the many ways EDITED’s Retail Intelligence Solution can support you in protecting against tariff turmoil. For more details, see our dedicated tariff management page.

CONCLUSION

Tariffs may be out of your control, but how you respond doesn’t need to be. With margins under pressure and policies in flux, retailers need more than

instinct; they need real-time, databacked insights to act fast and stay profitable.

EDITED’s Retail Intelligence Platform empowers you to stay informed, agile, and competitive, no matter how unpredictable the global trade landscape becomes.
