Inspired by the spirit and strength of our wahine during kapa haka, the Hemaima Dress offers a modern interpretation of traditional kākahu. At its edged tāniko, you'll discover nine nihotaniwha motifs - an homage to the nine notches in the wingspan of the Ngāpuhi manu aute logo, standing as a Pou o Te Whare Tapu o Ngāpuhi.
