WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON
A NEW GARMENT COLLECTION
Sign up for our newsletter to stay updated on the launch date!
IKIGAIA is a slow-fashion atelier where garments and textile art are created in harmony with Nature. Each piece is hand-stitched and botanically dyed by Emma — a nature lover, slow-fashion designer, and textile artist based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
From the earthy tones to the mindful pace of her creation processes, nature is both the source and soul of everything she makes.

By working with natural materials, we honor the earth's cycles and its abundance, embracing sustainability and rejecting the harm caused by synthetic alternatives. Botanical dyes allow us to co-create with nature, weaving its energy into every handmade creation. Each piece becomes a soulful expression in harmony with our Gaia, a celebration of slow craftsmanship and ancient textile traditions, and an invitation for you to connect with the natural world we live in.
​In a world where so much is pre-made and hurried, the act of crafting something yourself allows you to slow down, immerse yourself in the process, and feel the energy of your intentions flow into your creation. By working with your hands, you nurture a sense of gratitude for the materials you use and the effort it takes to transform them into something meaningful.
It's a reminder that true beauty lies not only in the outcome but in the journey—the learning, the imperfections, and the joy of creation itself.
