Maxine Benatar choosing fabrics and colours in her Cape Town studio

Made in Cape Town

Small runs. Real fabric. One pair of hands.

Amaya is designed by Maxine Benatar in Cape Town. Every style is made locally in a small run, in fabrics chosen to move with you, from a long lunch in the sun to a late night out.

When a style sells out, it is usually gone. That is on purpose: you will never see yourself coming the other way.
