Taiana Giefer is a stunning designer of scarves, throws and blankets using felted merino wool textiles.
Taiana is a native of Santa Barbara and works in New York. Throughout her life she has immersed herself in the world of art and textiles and is certainly is an up-and-coming designer. Taiana Designs are marvelous, wearable and usable.
All her designs are handmade by Taiana and you will never find an identical piece due to the organic process. Taiana Giefer is only 22 years old, but her edgy, felted merino wool textiles have already captured the attention of some pretty influential fashion folk.
Francisco Costa collaborated with the New York-based designer on custom fabrics for his fall Calvin Klein collection, and Rick Owens liked her cloud-soft creations so much that he decided to sell them at his Paris boutique.
Giefer whose boyfriend is the artist and Abraxas Rex Jewelry designer Paris Kain also sells her hand-woven scarves, throws and blankets at Maxfield in Los Angeles. Each richly textured piece is one of a kind and takes up to a week to make. “I love creating things that are new and innovative, but really show off the handwork that went into them,” she says.
