Nia Thomas is a luxury resortwear label founded in 2018 by the designer of the same name, built around elevated handmade knitwear and crochet. Collections span dresses, knitwear, crochet pieces and resort separates, with production split across three places: basics are made locally in New York City, and the handcrafted knitwear is made in Mexico and Peru. The brand publishes an 'Our Ethics' page laying out its artisan partnerships and its slow-production approach, which is a fuller accounting than most labels offer.
New York is the operating base and customer service runs on Eastern time, Monday through Friday, 10am to 6pm. There is no retail store; the label sells online, and its one physical space is a private-appointment showroom in the Roma Norte neighborhood of Mexico City, bookable by email or Instagram direct message.
You can follow the label on Instagram, TikTok and YouTube to see how pieces are worn. For anyone looking for handmade knitwear with a clear account of who made it and where, this is a label worth knowing. Browse the collections or write to book a showroom visit.
