It’s no secret that we are big fans of NZ eco fashion label Kowtow, and this month they impress again with their new collection Silent Space. Inspired by the work of Japanese architect Tadao Ando, the collection includes a range of both classic and edgier pieces, all of which reflect the brand’s minimalist ethos. Kowtow’s design team worked on the collection for over a year (with Ando as their muse) and were inspired by themes of ‘nothingness’, ’empty space’ and ‘serenity’. This collection is the 12th for Kowtow and has been launched this month in Australia and NZ, as well as Sweden, the US and Mexico. As always, the collection is made from certified fair trade, organic cotton and uses GOTS dyes. Congrats Kowtow!
