As part of our 2022 partnership, Mazda NZ commissioned previous World of WearableArt (WOW) award winning New Zealand designer Lisa Vanin, to create a garment that brings together their shared design ethos. Lisa’s inspiration for her garment “Symbiosis” draws on Mazda’s established KODO design principles and her current design journey. "Symbiosis" was created completely by hand, drawing inspiration from nature. Don’t miss it on display in the WOW HUB until the end of the 2022 Show season! #MazdaN
