Atelier · Benin · Batik & made-to-measure

Fabric first.
Sewn to your measure.

Choose a batik, choose a silhouette — Maison Hiya cuts and sews it for you, one stitch at a time, in Benin.

— A note from the atelier

“It starts with the fabric.
Batik is drawn in wax, then dyed —
no two lengths are ever alike.”

So every piece is cut for one person, from one length of cloth. Créations et réalisations sur mesure.

01 — The Fabrics

Fifteen batiks. Your silhouette.

Every Maison Hiya piece begins with one of these lengths of cloth.
