OUR TEAM
Building Culture & Connection.
Indonesia has become a cornerstone of our operations, with a deep-rooted connection developed over 26 years of visits and five years of close collaboration with our production team. My Burmese-Scottish heritage has fostered a deep appreciation for Asian cultures, and values such as community, harmony and positive karma—creating good to receive good in return—are integral to both my personal ethos and our business philosophy.
In establishing Mama Mane in 2018, we engaged with several manufacturing teams to identify the ideal partner. Given our focus on curve-specialized fashion, it was essential that the team fully understood our vision of creating tailored, fluid, and feminine clothing rather than oversized alternatives. After a rigorous nine-month evaluation process, we found our current team, whose exceptional sample quality and alignment with our brand vision, proved to be the perfect match.
Today, 5 years into our partnership, the collaboration continues to thrive. Their dedication to precision, meticulous attention to detail and shared commitment to crafting exquisite mid and plus-sized clothing, are pivotal to our brand’s success. Each garment reflects their passion for quality and their profound respect for the Mama Mane brand.
QUALITY & EXCELLENCE
Our core values of quality, affordability and modesty are reflected in the size inclusive designs we create.
At Mama Mane, we pride ourselves on creating high-quality garments with a focus on the finer details that set us apart. From our consciously sourced, pre-washed fabrics to our thoughtful design process that takes months of development, every element is intentional.
The brand is built to prioritize comfort and fit for curvy women, focusing on where the body naturally needs fullness—through the hips, waist, bust, and thighs—so you feel unrestricted, even when sitting down. Details like well-placed pockets, modest button spacing for full coverage, and designs that allow for easy movement are essential to creating pieces that make you feel confident and comfortable.
We believe in the art of design—the finesse in every stitch, the beauty of well-placed buttons, and the elegance of bell sleeves. These small but meaningful details define what it means to wear a Mama Mane piece. Our garments aren’t just about quality, they’re about thoughtful, ethical craftsmanship that makes each piece beautiful, feminine and truly special.
ETHICAL PRACTICES
We put thoughtful consideration and research into ethical design and sourcing practices.
At Mama Mane, we are dedicated to upholding the highest standards of ethical and fair-trade practices. While we do not hold official certification, we personally ensure that all operations align with our core values of fairness, respect and cultural sensitivity. Our commitment to these principles is reflected in fair wages and safe working conditions for our team.
Our production takes place in Indonesia, where we honour and integrate local culture and traditions into our business model. As an Australian enterprise, we champion diversity and inclusivity, employing individuals from a variety of religious and cultural backgrounds. We respect and accommodate their traditions by providing time off for significant cultural and religious observances.
This holistic approach not only fosters a positive work environment but also enriches our business with a diverse array of cultural insights and practices. At Mama Mane, we are committed to uplifting communities and crafting products that reflect our dedication to ethical practices and cultural respect. We invite you to experience the care and commitment woven into each of our garments.
