Recollections. Reflections. Projections.

A limited edition book, published to mark 20 years of Kowtow, The Unmaking Of reflects on where we've been, what we've learned, and where fashion must go next.

Part archive, part manifesto, the book brings together stories, essays and imagery that trace two decades of questioning convention and imagining a different future for clothing.

Equal parts celebration and provocation, The Unmaking Of is a document of our past, and an invitation to rethink what comes next.

Print and bound in Aotearoa New Zealand by Touchprint, a Toitū Enviromark Gold certified organisation, using 100% recycled paper. Dimensions: 170mmx240mm.

Wear nature. not plastic.
