About the maker – Miramara designs

Hello, I’m Ivana – the maker, designer and hands behind every Miramara’s piece.

Miramara Designs is a true one-person studio. Every garment begins with my own hand-drawn or digitally created textile designs, inspired by nature, color and the playful world of childhood.

From there, I personally cut, sew, crochet or knit each piece in my Sydney studio.

I work slowly and intentionally, creating clothing that feels beautiful, last through real childhood adventures, and celebrate craftsmanship in a world of fast fashion.

What makes my work different

  • Original textile design – created by me from scratch.
  • Handmade in Australia – I personally cut, sew, knit or crochet every item.
  • Australian Made Certified – Fully accredited and authorized to use the Australian Made Logo.
  • Premium natural fibers – Pure 180 gsm French linen & certified organic cotton.
  • Small batch, sustainable production – no mass production, no factories, no outsourcing.

My printed fabrics are produced in China due to the high cost of printing locally ( 3-4 times more expensive in Australia), but all garments are entirely made here in Australia by me, which keeps the quality consistent and allows to stay true to slow-fashion values.

My philosophy

Clothing should be comfortable, natural, long lasting and filled with heart. I believe in creating beautiful pieces that are kind to skin, kind to the planet, and made with genuine care, not rushed or industrialized.

When you choose Miramara Designs, you are supporting a real Australian maker, a real home studio, and a small business powered by creativity and dedication.

Thank you for being here and choosing handmade.

Handmade slowly. Worn daily. Loved for years.

Ivana,
Miramara Designs
