akin: (adj.) the sentiment of connectivity, with your self and others.

 
akin was born on a sunny London afternoon when two sisters-in-law decided to create, grounded in their shared belief in empowerment, beauty and traditions. Hailing from Dominican Republic and Romania, they embody the endless inspiration of their travels and the artistic expressions of different cultures. The desire to bridge gaps between cultures and connect women through art and tradition flows through their veins.

Our collection is a small batch, handcrafted line of timeless pieces. Every item is crafted slowly by using the utmost care and attention to detail, using practices that are mindful to the environment.

The unique cultural traditions and expertise are the ethos of our brand. The one of a kind embroidery, carefully woven materials and crochet, result in singular pieces inspired by heritage and unique details.

Our designs are a labour of love – with blend of traditional Romanian folklore and feminine Latin vibrancy.

	when women discover and honour their own traditions we believe they birth beauty
when they create cultural connection with sisters worldwide they can change the world
	connection takes the hand of compassion and respect and joins them in love
now imagine a world where in such love we preserve art and tradition
	our hearts can clearly see a strong outcome and that is human empowerment
and it is cultivating peace for future generations and a path for better.
