Showcasing NZ fashion in Europe.
I only stock New Zealand labels.
Currently about 80% of the stock is made in NZ. I am working towards having all the stock made in NZ, and hope to do so by the next season here.
What NZ-made labels do you sell?
World, Zambesi, Karen Walker, Trelise Cooper and Kate Sylvester
- though they don't all make everything in NZ.
Can we buy them online? Not through me currently but I am looking at an option for this, as I now have some customers who are not Paris-based.
What price range are your clothes in?
From 100 to 600 euros.
Why do you think NZ clothing labels outsource their manufacturing overseas? Cost, I think, is the main reason.
Anything to add?
The French generally love New Zealanders & I have found that they will pay a little more for a garment that is made in NZ; particularly if there are only a few of each piece. On this basis, I have no more than five of any piece in the shop.
Kōkō closed down in April unfortunately.
