As part of the Pacific Dance Festival 2023, Tāmaki Paenga Hira Auckland Museum is excited to host Beau Louis Takapu Couture for a showcase of the SS23 Forever Grateful collection.
The Forever Grateful collection beautifully incorporates the vibrant colours of the Pasifika, intertwining the rich stories of Tongan heritage with expertly crafted garments.
Forever Grateful is inspired by Beau Louis Takapu’s personal journey, paying tribute to the courage, strength, and individuality of his loved ones, to whom the collection is dedicated.
Accompanying the Beau Louis Takapu collection will be the Feohianga Alonga ‘ia Kalaisi Trust, a groundbreaking combination that celebrates creativity, design, fashion, and the rich culture of Tongan Kava clubs. This unlikely partnership showcases the beauty and power of merging diverse influences to create something truly remarkable.
