Jakarta — Monica Ivena Atelier is proud to announce the release of its latest collection,
Nyonya, a heartfelt dedication to Monica Ivena’s mother and all the incredible women who embody strength, resilience, and grace. This collection is a modern interpretation of Chinese-Indonesian Peranakan culture, drawing on the designer’s own experience as a mother and the unspoken sacrifices women make every day for their families.
The Nyonya collection reflects the intricate balance women strike as they juggle multiple
roles—whether as working mothers or full-time homemakers. Monica Ivena was inspired by her mother’s legacy and her own journey, realizing that mothers, often through tears and challenges, remain pillars of strength for their families. They ensure everything is in place, from earning a living and preparing meals to guiding their children’s education and remaining steadfast in their marriages.
“Women, especially mothers, possess an extraordinary resilience,” says Monica Ivena. “They bear the weight of their families on their shoulders while still radiating beauty and grace. This collection celebrates that strength and honors all the sacrifices women make to build and sustain their families.”
Nyonya features elegant yet bold designs that merge traditional Peranakan elements with
contemporary fashion, encapsulating the multifaceted roles of women. From the intricate patterns symbolizing heritage to the modern silhouettes representing today’s empowered woman, the collection serves as both an homage and a celebration of the enduring beauty of motherhood.
For Monica, Nyonya is more than just a collection; it’s a tribute to all the women who have paved the way, ensuring their families thrive. Each piece in this collection tells a story of love, strength, and sacrifice—of a mother’s unyielding spirit.
