Beyond Venice

Venice is known for its masquerades, lavish costumes and gilded facades, but the mastery in ornament does not end within its canals. Burano, one of many small islands surrounding Venice has a unique and exquisit specialty of its own. Similar to Venice, it us made up of several canals that direct its tourists and few inhabitants. The island specializes in lace and has done so for hundreds of years.

The intricate lace patterns from Burano have influenced the world. The city, thought to be founded in the 6th century was visited by many famous scholars, including Leonardo da Vinci, who aided the popularity and spread of these stylistic details. KORHANI home’s Venice Carnival collection has designs inspired by such elaborate patterns.

All hand crafted, the city is the world’s finest producer of lace. Specializing in a craft for so many centuries has allowed time for its signature patterns to find themselves in our own current designs. KORHANI home has adopted some of these patterns by way of stylistic evolution!

 

 

Fashionable Homes and Heels!

Parading the perfect pair of heels is one of the best ways to make a profound fashion statement! Another way of giving a punch to your style at home is by featuring a powerful rug! This rug pattern from our Mongolian Beauty collection is packed with colour and totally match those amazing PRADA shoes of yours ;) !

 

At KORHANI home we love matching fashion with interiors, giving rooms tuns of excitement! Who is your favourite shoe designer? Could you design your room around your most coveted pair?!

Moji & Kirsten Korhani bring KORHANI home to Berlin

Moji and Kirsten Korhani, Owner and Creative Director of KORHANI home, have been traveling to draw inspiration from numerous well-known designer runway shows in North America and Europe. Recently in Berlin, they were thrilled to introduce their fashion-forward brand.

The KORHANI home runway show in Berlin at the AXICA Kongress introduced the Canadian Collection. In Berlin, KORHANI home partnered with the Canadian Tourism Board to showcase the eclectic and creative Canadiana themes on the runway.

The collection captivated the audience and displayed the influence that home decor trends are now inspiring those of fashion.

Moji and Kirsten Korhani brought this Canadian Collection to a place they also call home. Combining inspirations from the past to create styles for the present, they are now connecting with both fashion audiences and home decor purchasers across the globe. The reception has been outstanding and we thank everyone who has taken the time to recognize our exciting brand.

From Rug Fashion to Rug Tote Bags!

At World MasterCard Fashion Week we turned rugs into couture, so we thought as a parting gift for our guests we would transform our beautiful rugs into tote bags to take home!

These stylish designs reflected our three themes for the evening: Moda Mongolia, Glam Punk and Venice Carnivale. We are delighted that everyone at World MasterCard Fashion Week in Toronto who attended our show took away one of our creations!
