Authentic Aboriginal Art Meets Luxurious Australian Merino Wool
In today’s world of mass production and fleeting trends, there is a quiet revolution happening in fashion, led by those who value authenticity, sustainability and meaning.
At Mainie, we offer something truly unique, a fusion of ancient Aboriginal Dreaming stories and the finest Woolmark-certified Australian Merino wool, crafted into beautiful, functional accessories for the modern traveller who values ethical fashion.
Ancient Stories, Contemporary Style
Each Mainie scarf begins with a story that predates recorded history, an interpretation of a sacred Dreaming that has been passed down by Warlpiri women artists from Central Australia through countless generations.
The artwork designs featured in the Mainie collection bring to life enduring spiritual connections to Country, culture and kinship. More than mere decoration, they are part of a living tradition that has continued unbroken for tens of thousands of years.
Through ethical licensing partnerships with Aboriginal art centres, Mainie ensures these authentic stories are reproduced with cultural respect and integrity, and that the artists receive royalties from every sale.
Art You Can Wear
Mainie’s designs are created by digitally reproducing ethically sourced Aboriginal designs onto luxurious pure Australian Merino wool.
Our advanced digital printing process captures every brushstroke and subtle detail, preserving the hand painted look of the original artwork.
The result is a stunning wearable work of art, rich in meaning, sophisticated in style and handcrafted for unparalleled comfort and versatility.
Australian Merino wool is incredibly soft and breathable, making it the perfect travel companion through changing seasons and destinations.
Style with Purpose
Each Mainie wrap is a meaningful celebration of the world’s oldest continuous living culture and a statement of commitment to ethical and sustainable fashion.
Our fine wool textiles are sustainably sourced, and every Mainie is created with care to support Indigenous artists, their families and communities in remote Outback regions in Central Australia.
Drape a Mainie wrap over your shoulders for warmth and comfort on a long-haul flight, it’s lightweight, crush resistant and will fold easily into your carry-on.
Style it as an elegant shawl for cool evenings on the promenade deck or transform your look with a simple drape to effortlessly elevate a casual outfit into an eye-catching after-five ensemble.
Whether you are taking in the charm of cobblestoned laneways in Paris, watching a magnificent sunrise in the mountains, or exploring a picturesque seaside market, a Mainie scarf offers style with a story and elegance with ethics, wherever your travels take you.
For the Stylish Traveller Who Values Simplicity
Mainie pure Merino wool scarves are made for discerning women who like to travel light and choose practicality and comfort over trendiness and fuss.
