It seems like it was just yesterday that Hanya co-founder Tan Veen Dee and I were chatting about her dream to set up a different kind of fashion label— one that's more conscious and caring, thoughtful and true.

"I can't believe Hanya's four," Tan says. "I feel like we just bought the domain,"

"Over the years, we are proud to have championed more values and missions over products. Our values are imprinted on every tiny detail of our collection and each collection sends a message," she says.

TIME TO CELEBRATE

This month, the brand turns four. And over the years, it has made cool clothes and carried out thoughtful collaborations, like on mental health, for example. It's a brand by women and about women and it has gone from strength to strength.

Its latest line-up, is no exception.

Called The Verse, there's The Office Survival Kit merchandise including its signature face mask, lanyard, canvas bag (it's my personal favourite. I have major love for the material and print), notebooks, stickers and tumbler.

The brand says this is its biggest collection this year, including two special collaborations with local brands, Machino for footwear and Self Supply for homewear as a nod to support local labels as peers and allies.

 It turned a villa in Bali in to the Hanya Hotel to celebrate with friends and influencers.

SPACE TO GROW

"Over the past four years, our team has brought so many imaginative concepts to life and we've only scratched the surface on where we intend to go and grow,"

"If this whole experience has taught us anything, it's that we couldn't have done it without the community we are so lucky to be a part of," she says.

The price range for the entire collection is between RM24.90 and RM359, with staggered drops online. Follow @shophanya on Instagram for more details.
