Kia ora, I’m Dee — Māma, Wifey and Sister behind Shilohs Way. Born from a pull back to my Māori roots, this pakihi is personal —but it’s also about what comes next.
Raised between Australia and Aotearoa, my identity has always lived in the in-between. That duality shapes everything we create. We use traditional Māori motifs and push them forward — into pieces that feel bold and considered.
Named after our daughter, Yva Shiloh, this is a legacy in motion. Although we live away from our whenua, we stand with deep respect on Yugambeh land — and work hard to generate our designs from a genuine place of aroha. Welcome to Shilohs Way.
Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou
