07 Jul N’onat: Not Your Average Outerwear
N’ONAT’s Fall Winter 2020 Collection is inspired by the many adventurous women of the mid-century. The jackets and coats were designed to encompass the spirit of late-1950s couture and the seasonal beauty of New York City. The outerwear brand takes faux fur to a new level – distinctive fine quality that is indistinguishable in look, fit and feel from their real counterparts. Each style is sophisticated, easy to wear, and timeless. Their mission is to deliver thoughtful design made with certified eco-friendly textiles and finishes like fine metal zippers, snaps and buttons. The meticulous craftsmanship of ‘old world’ European ateliers makes N’ONAT a guilt-free luxury for your wardrobe.
Creative Director, Nihan Onat, moved to New York City in 2014 and set about to develop her brand over the next four years. She began her career in the Istanbul fashion industry where she quickly advanced to senior management positions in leading Turkish textile companies. In addition to being a wife and mother, she travels frequently between NYC and Europe, particularly Istanbul where N’ONAT is manufactured. She has worked as a consulting designer in multiple European markets, with a focus on leather and fur outerwear. Nihan gained a deep knowledge of furs, pelts, and other materials – that exposure led her to discover that equivalent high-end outerwear could be created without harming animals in the process. The debut of N’ONAT is the result of that vision. The brand loves animals and pledges a portion of their annual revenue to PETA.
