Solakof
Solakof is a Wānaka-based tradesman turned tailor who has successfully resurrected the forgotten New Zealand fashion label Oscar Eide. With no prior fashion experience, he embarked on a journey to learn the craft of sewing and production, ultimately reviving a brand that once thrived in the local clothing manufacturing industry. His dedication to quality and authenticity has led to the production of premium jackets, sourced from a Japanese mill, and a remarkable reception at local shows. Through social media, Solakof has built a following and attracted international orders, all while emphasizing the importance of preserving New Zealand’s fashion heritage.
