Introducing Namiko Bamboo Womenswear!

Birdmotel are thrilled to be introducing a new brand to our collection this month


 A certified bamboo fabric fashion label from designer Nazrina Hamid-Hnatko 


The gorgeous Nazrina!


Launched in Sydney in 2012, the Namiko aesthetic is a contemporary, minimalist look and is crafted in this incredible certified bamboo cotton.  

Each piece is specifically designed to be incredibly comfortable and wearable, but with a unique cut that is flattering on all body shapes.  Designer Nazrina focuses her designs on ease of movement with classic, effortless shapes that can be dressed up or down by pairing with casual or bold accessories. 

We can see this gorgeous navy blue Amy dress looking just as amazing with leopard print flats for lunch with friends.  But you could just as easily pair it with a bold metallic necklace and heels for a killer date-night outfit.   Feel like adding a pop of colour?  The Navy is an amazing base for turquoise blues or bold oranges - almost any colour goes with Navy!

We can't decide which look we like best!  What do you think?

Bamboo fabric is simply amazing!  It is naturally soft and the non-irritating smooth fibres means it's ideal for those with sensitive skin. 
The weight of the fabric lends itself perfectly to beautiful draping and feels lovely to wear.  Plus it has a subtle natural sheen so it always looks and feels just that little bit special. 
One interesting fact is that bamboo is a natural microbial agent, which means bacteria does not cultivate on the fibres - so you can be assured that even when rushing around during a hectic day - you're always going to feel (and smell!) clean, and cool as a cucumber!
Plus it has unique thermal properties that make it warm in the cooler months, yet cool in the warmer months - meaning you can wear your Namiko Bamboo Womenswear all year round.   And it has natural UV protection - amazing!
Want to see what we mean?  Then order your own style from the Namiko Bamboo Womenswear range at Birdmotel today!

The We Are Handsome story...

Launched out of Sydney in 2009 by the incredibly talented creative, Jeremy Jules Somers, We Are Handsome's first range swept the fashion industry off it's feet.  Jeremy's unique mix of gorgeous fabrics and striking prints created a swimwear range like no one had ever seen before. 

These amazing designs were quickly swept up by major international retailers like Barneys, Selfridges, Opening Ceremony and more, and We Are Handsome was released into the world.

The brand was soon a celeb favourite with everyone from Beyonce and Katy Perry to Miranda KerrRita Ora, and Tyra Banks snapping up swimsuits for themselves, as well as their on stage and editorial collections.  
Rihanna is a massive fan and even commissioned her own custom We Are Handsome piece!






What Birdmotel love about We Are Handsome (aside from their incredible designs of course!) is that they remain committed to the Australian fashion industry with every piece made right here in Australia.

Once you slip into a We Are Handsome  swimsuit you'll feel empowered, beautiful and confident, and we know you'll be a WAH fan for life!
