About us
There is a story behind
Olala Mia is proud to bring you diverse products with beautiful hand-embroidered motifs from Vietnamese artisans.
Embroidery is a traditional handicraft in Vietnam with a long history date back to the 17th century. The art of embroidery is practiced in craft villages, it was kept and passed within families over generations. Some artisans started learning to embroider when they were 6 to 7 years old, taught by older artisans. In the past, the local artisans were selected to make the embroidered ritual objects and costumes for the Vietnamese king, queen, and other members of the royal families. Nowadays, the embroidery technique can be applied to various textile products in daily use, such as Ao Dai (Vietnamese traditional dress), hair accessories, or home decorations.
Unfortunately with the expansion of fast fashion, fewer people in our craft villages continue with this traditional work. At Olala Mia, we believe that there is no modern machine that can replace the nifty lines made by the hand of talented artisans. With the desire to keep and further develop the embroidery villages, Olala Mia works with Vietnamese artisans together to offer you unique and beautiful products.
As embroidery is very time-consuming, our products are only available in limited quantities. Our authentic and high-quality products are perfect for personal use as well as gifts for your friends and family.
We are happy to develop and produce individual motifs on requests, such as products with a company logo or other motif suggestions. Feel free to contact us via email if you have any questions about price, minimum quantity and duration of production
