The Story

ALOFA: Heart of the Pacific.

At the heart of the Pacific is Alofa — love. Our Summer 2026 collection celebrates the warmth, connection and beautiful moments that make summer feel like home, inspired by the people we hold close and the memories we create together.

Island Escape brings the lush beauty of our Pacific landscapes into ALOFA. Inspired by the tropical greenery that surrounds our island homes, this beautiful colourway combines rich emerald and turquoise tones with a soft creamy backdrop, creating a print that feels fresh, vibrant and naturally elegant.

Oversized monstera leaves unfold across the fabric, their distinctive shapes capturing the abundance and beauty of island life. The rich greens bring a sense of tropical paradise, while the lighter base creates a beautiful balance of colour and contrast.

The Avemaria Kimono brings a beautiful finishing touch to Island Escape. Designed to flow gracefully over our matching Maiana Dress, its airy silhouette adds softness and movement, creating a coordinated look that feels effortlessly elegant.

Inspired by the warmth of our islands, family celebrations and the beautiful moments we share together, Island Escape is made for a summer filled with love, laughter and memories worth holding onto.

Refreshing, graceful and distinctly MENA, Island Escape brings a little piece of paradise to every special occasion.

Welcome to MENA!

If you're new to MENA you'll quickly notice how much we love colour and vibrant polynesian prints!

We started creating our own designs over 20 years ago to connect us more to our Samoan culture. MENA is named of our mother Mena Loheni who was born and raised in Samoa. She learned how to sew when she was very young and it has been a talent that has helped provide for her family and later on the foundation on which our family enterprise was built. You can read more about our story via the link below. In the meantime we hope you find something here to treasure.

Taking MENA International

We love having the opportunity to showcase our designs as far and wide as possible.

Last year we were thrilled to be able to show at the first ever Utah Pacific Fashion Show. It was a fantastic week of sharing, connecting and being inspired by other Pacific designers and creatives from all over. We've documented all the fun events and behind the scenes fun in our latest blogs so you can read all about in the link below!
