Hai started with silk, and our early pieces were about experimenting with, and stretching, the possibilities of the fabric. In time, this focus on silk has broadened to encompass a whole palette of finely crafted materials including velvet, lace and pearls. This widening approach to materials has happened hand-in-hand with us expanding from our bags, to shoes, dresses, shirts, skirts: a whole Hai wardrobe. In our designs, we tend to strive to create the platonic ideal of a wardrobe staple, or the unexpected piece you didn’t know you needed.
