Boo Kimono
khaki printed denim, above the knee length,
padded belt and two side pockets
This beautiful Boo Kimono by Shona Tāwhiao - Ngāi Te Rangi, is part of the showcase at Museum Store Presents: Kōkōwai.
Kōkōwai is a showcase of work by two acclaimed wāhine ringatoi Māori, Shona Tāwhiao - Ngāi Te Rangi and Stevei Houkāmau - Ngāti Porou, Te Whānau-ā-Apanui, celebrating indigenous artistry through music and movement.
Artist, designer and weaver Shona Tāwhiao, has exhibited her distinct style of raranga (woven work) for over 25 years. Having trained in traditional Māori raranga weaving techniques and methods by Kahutoi Te Kanawa, Shona’s talent has been described as exquisite and undeniably unique. Shona continues to create a range of sculptural works and adornment pieces but the fusing of her love of fashion and culture with her specialised techniques in weaving has enabled Shona to create Haute Couture from harakeke. This has resulted in her unique style being dubbed “Harakeke Couture”. Shona’s multi award-winning collections of Harakeke Couture have been presented at New Zealand, London, Malaysia, Fiji, Hong Kong and Melbourne Fashion Weeks since 2010.
