Aiko Studio – Our story

When her first baby was born, Brussels-based designer Gioia Seghers had to think about warmer clothes for the upcoming winter months. Instead of running down to the stores to purchase new items, she decided to use her old knitwear pieces to make new sweaters for her son, sticking to simple, geometric shapes, and working without any patterns.

Adult kimonos will be live this weekend—our bigg

Adult kimonos will be live this weekend—our biggest release to date and I’m grateful to have you here for the launch 💙

Each piece is one-size, with a relaxed, cropped fit that works for sizes XS to L. I’ve been wearing mine daily for four years, and I hope you’ll find your favorite among these new blue tones. Every denim piece has been sourced locally in Belgium, then carefully upcycled in our workshop to create beautiful, balanced shades of blue.

If you’d like more info before the launch, please feel free to DM me.

By tomorrow, you should all have received your Nami Jackets and patchwork pants, and I hope you’re happy with your pieces! As we wrap up the Nami Jacket season, I’m aiming to release a few more patchwork pants in December. Let me know what sizes you’re looking for.

The Patchwork Pants and the Nami Jackets are signa

The Patchwork Pants and the Nami Jackets are signature pieces in the AIKO wardrobe for kids.
Each one is repurposed from denim, making it truly one of a kind. Due to the lengthy handcrafted process, stock is always limited.

For those who have confirmed their orders, your parcels will be shipped tomorrow morning. There are still Nami Jackets available in sizes 1-2 years, 2-3 years, and 3-4 years, along with pants in size 3-4 years. The next release of Nami jackets will be in spring 2025, so if you’re considering one, now is the time. Available through DM 💙

After three-month break, I’m still soaking up pr

After three-month break, I’m still soaking up precious moments with Numa and my family, but I wanted to send a quick update. With the arrival of fall, I look back on what might have been the most special summer I’ve ever experienced.

Some of you have recently joined the AIKO community and reached out, curious about when the e-shop will reopen. I currently have a limited stock of Nami Jackets for kids, ideal for this crisp fall weather, as well as some beautiful patchwork adult denim kimonos that I’m eager to share with you as soon as I can here. I’m also working on new patchwork denim pants in different sizes.

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve finally found the perfect new space for my workshop! While it’ll take some time to set up, I’m excited to eventually welcome you there. This transition is another reason things are currently on pause, but it’s all part of the exciting journey.

Looking forward to reconnecting with you all soon. In the meantime, I hope you’re doing well and embracing the arrival of fall.

Welcoming Summer on this solstice day, undoubtedly our favorite season.

I know some of you are still considering the cashmere cardigans and sweaters, so I’ve extended free shipping until Sunday. For those in Brussels, you can drop by the workshop this Saturday morning and all orders will be shipped early next week.

Meanwhile, we’re wrapping up the final denim orders and will contact you via DM as soon as they’re ready to be sent.

Thank you for being part of the AIKO journey, for your warm messages, and your many orders 💙
