Ātea by TAV
Ātea in the Māori language means boundless space or opening – for TAV it embodies a new beginning.

New Horizons

Ātea by TAV opens a new chapter within the TAV story, allowing us to explore different fabrics, constructions, and silhouettes, with pieces crafted beyond the Cook Islands. This expansion gives us the creative freedom to innovate, while remaining guided by the values that define TAV.

We honour our longstanding artistic expressions while embracing new possibilities – safeguarding tradition while looking toward the future.

Crafted from Natural Materials

True to our commitment to sustainability, Ātea by TAV is crafted using natural materials such as linen, cupro, and mother-of-pearl shell. These materials are selected for their luxurious feel, longevity, and reduced environmental impact; designed to be worn, treasured, and kept.
