Twiceshy the label

Twiceshy is one of New Zealand’s newest emerging fashion labels. The aesthetic is proudly feminine, playful and on trend. Twiceshy is for the girl who seeks pleasure in styling an outfit from head to toe. The labels heavy but touch-soft fabrics and luxe designs embody the eclectic vision that the partners of the label share.
Making its way into form in 2012, the label began as the daydream of young couple Hannah Nink and Dylan Whitehead who saw a need for an affordable New Zealand designed label that offered great design and on-trend prints and colours. The pieces generated by Twiceshy come from research of street style all over the world and are combined into affordable seasonal collections.

“Twiceshy is a label for everyone,” Hannah says. “We want all women who appreciate a simple design with amazing quality and fit to be wearing our clothes. Fashion is such an important part of defining your individuality! A quality well designed piece can make you feel amazing. We aim to create wardrobe go to items that will last for seasons to come”

Hannah Nink for Twiceshy
A passion for dress ups fuelled designer Hannah Nink’s love of clothing at a young age. After recently graduating a BAA in 2013 she has used her knowledge of art, colour and design to establish the clear eclectic style behind Twiceshy. “I’ve always loved drawing and creating, but I feel as though I have found my niche in Fashion design” Hannah says. 20-year-old Hannah lives and breathes the aesthetic of Twiceshy and strongly believes that no piece should go into final production unless she would wear it herself. The young designer seeks inspiration from magazines, bloggers and social media to create garments and looks that make women feel both on trend and beautiful.
