Hawaiʻi Swimwear Brand Hilia Swim Invited to New York Fashion Week 2026
Hilia Swim, a Native Hawaiian wahine-owned swimwear brand founded by Jamiana Tan of Kona, Hawaiʻi, has been invited to present its collection at the world-renowned Runway 7 during New York Fashion Week in September 2026—bringing Hawaiʻi-based models to the global runway in a commitment to local representation.
Help Us Bring Hawaiʻi Talent to New York Fashion Week
My goal is to bring local Hawaiʻi models to New York Fashion Week and give ʻōpio from our islands the chance to walk a global runway while staying rooted in who they are and where they come from. This journey has always been about quality, representation, and honoring our community.Traveling from Hawaiʻi to New York with a full team comes with significant costs, including airfare, lodging, fittings, and show production. Your support will directly help make this opportunity possible—not just for me, but for the local talent we bring with us.
