Mr Peacock.
Lively tailored creativity.
Here at Mr Peacock we love encouraging people to dress with fun and boldness in clothes made ethically. In June 2017 fashion designer Emma Manhart and husband Mark Kolff made the move to the historic village of Akaroa on beautiful Banks Peninsula in the South Island of New Zealand to establish Mr Peacock. Since then they have been creating their own unique world of colour, style and fashion to share with everyone.
Our Story
Emma and Mark design their unique clothing in Akaroa from a purpose-built studio, and the beautifully handcrafted and colourful ‘Mr Peacock’ and ‘Emma Manhart’ labels are manufactured by talented small-scale makers in New Zealand. We do limited production runs so you know you will own one of only a few. New Zealand wool, and organic and fair-trade cotton are used where available, along with a quality selection of vibrant imported fabrics. A small exclusive range of textiles are printed with designs by Nelson based textile artist Mark Taylor.
