About Us

A love letter from Sara

I was born in Fiji, where the ocean hums lullabies and every breeze carries a story. After moving to Australia, I found myself drawn to the world of fashion—not just the clothes, but the soul behind small, intentional brands. I wanted to create something that could hold both: the elegance I fell in love with here, and the warmth of the island I still call home.

Duende is that dream—a collection inspired by the romance, texture, and legends of Fiji. Every piece is a tribute to the place that raised me, from the woven patterns of native flora to the whispers of ancient love stories. Designed to be worn with feeling, our garments carry the essence of slow beauty—meant for sun-drenched days, soft moments, and memories in the making.

Each piece is made with care by local artisans in Fiji, supporting our community and celebrating the craftsmanship that lives in our hands and hearts. This is fashion with meaning—rooted in culture, wrapped in love.

Thank you for wearing a little piece of home with me.

With love,

Sara
