New Zealand gets its own 'kiwi tweed'

New Zealand fashion legend Liz Mitchell has teamed up with Wanaka fashion brand 'Precious Collaborative' to create a limited edition woollen coat.

The coat is made of a "kiwi version" of tweed hand-spun on 100-year-old Hattersley looms by boutique weaving company McLean & Co in Oamaru

The coat will be sold at auction with the proceeds going toward funding a collection of wool and hemp streetwear
