in celebration of mother’s day, we sat down with some mothers and daughters from our team at moochi design pod.
from how they have influenced each other’s style, to being a role model, tune in as we chat fashion and motherhood
Q: for you, what does it mean to be a mother?
for me, it can mean so many things. motherhood can be overwhelming, confusing and hard at times,
but the cuddles, giggles and unconditional love makes being a mum everything
Q: in what ways do you want to be a role model for your daughter?
I just want to be a kind, grateful and open mummy to kōwhai, and I’m hoping she will be the same
I invest in pieces that fit well and are timeless, like a good blazer or knit sweater
Q: describe your mum in three words
loving, hardworking and fun!
Q: how did your mum influence your style/perception of fashion?
as I’ve matured over the years, my mum’s style and outlook has shaped mine. she always looks elegant and
polished, whether she’s attending an event or simply running errands. even in the most understated outfits, she
elevates it with accessories and a statement shoe or jacket. she’s ingrained in me from a young age that dressing for
where you aspire to be in life leads you closer to it, and that when you look your best you feel your best.

Linear vest | Coached pintuck pant | ballet buckle flat
Q: what values or lessons did your mother instill in you that you have
passed down to your daughters?
my mother always taught me that it costs nothing to be kind, and that it’s
always better to be overdressed than underdressed
Q: do you have a piece in your archive that you would give your daughters?
a stunning cream fur coat that my mother passed down to me with removable
long sleeve, transforming it into a vest. this renders it an endlessly versatile
and timeless addition to my wardrobe. it’s very special to me and I look
forward to my girls wearing it

my favourite piece from the new palette is the gorgeous onward trench in
khaki, such a great pop of colour for a winter staple. I also love the coached pintuck pants
