Meet Juliana Hung, our first 2015 Makers Alongside collaborator and the creative force behind jujumade.

Creative at a young age, years of reassembling and reimagining jewelry and fashion led Julie to begin creating her own wearable pieces. Following a career in industrial design, Julie founded jujumade as a platform from which she could illustrate her work and inspirations. The jujumade line and her creative process granted Julie the freedom she lacked as an industrial designer, and in 2012 Julie introduced a 2013 Autumn/Winter collection featuring handcrafted leatherwork and ceramic and stoneware jewelry.

Julie finds inspiration in the details around her: from intricate knots and trim to collaborative projects to her mother’s own style, Julie mixes materials together to create something unexpected.

The jujumade line embodies Julie’s passion for well-crafted design and attention to detail. Each piece is beautifully handmade from carefully selected materials which inspire Julie as much as the world around her. Julie’s deeply personal process result in pieces that are as unique as the wearers themselves.

Jujumade pieces can be purchased directly through jujumade’s website and in select stores around the United States. To purchase our jujumade x HDH porcelain and gold eclair earrings, visit our online store, and be sure to visit Julie on the jujumade website and Instagram!

Limited Edition

Spring is right around the corner with ivories and whites lifting the spirits here at HDH.

Introducing the Winnie Top, Ely Top, and Afton Pant as three new additions to your spring wardrobe. The versatility that neutrals can bring to your closet is endless! We paired the classic fitted Afton Pant with our upcoming March release, the linen Valhalla Top. This simple silhouette is complete with a necklace by Gamma Folk, and let’s not forget our lovely black flats from Coclio

The monochromatic look is also grabbing our attention this week by pairing the ivory Winnie Top with our favorite gold accessories from Parc Boutique. A textured piece like the Winnie Top, constructed of raw silk, can evolve the look of any outfit. Its silhouette goes great with denims or as another layer to any traditional black design, like the HDH Arcadia Jumper

Finally, we styled the layered, linen Ely Top with our Afton Pant, a long black vest, and flats from Franco Sarto.  We found the stunning cuff at Mille.

Shop all three new releases today.

We’re kicking off our 2015 Makers Alongside collection with these beautiful eclair earrings by Juliana Hung of jujumade!

Based in Los Angeles, jujumade specializes in detailed jewelry and leather goods. We were excited to collaborate with Juliana to create these earrings, made with English porcelain and gold glaze and backed with a stainless steel stud.

This year, we’ll be featuring one new maker each month for the Makers Alongside collection. Be sure to check out jujumade’s website to find more beautiful jewelry and order your HDH x jujumade eclair earrings on Wednesday, February 18th from our website!

Limited Edition

Today we’re releasing four new pieces: the Adrian and Aire Tanks, the Ballard Skirt, and the Arcadia Jumper!

Made of raw silk, the ivory Adrian and mauve Aire Tanks will add texture and character to your spring and summer looks. We styled both with the ankle-length Ballard Skirt, made from the same raw mauve silk as the Aire Tank. With their perfectly cropped cuts and racer backs, either would pair well with your favorite jeans or summer shorts. 

 We love the black Arcadia Jumper and its chic back panel. Its sophisticated silhouette makes it a perfect option for warm nights out.  We styled it simply with black leather mules from Calvin Klein and a gold bangle.

The Adrian and Aire Tanks, Ballard Skirt, and Arcadia Jumper are all available on our website now!

Limited Edition

We’re dreaming of warm weather this Monday with three new spring releases, the Siever Kimono, Finn Top, and Kitchi Kaftan!  Each design is lightweight, breezy, and perfect for summertime (or if you’re lucky, a beach vacation!).

The long Siever Kimono’s open front and short sleeves make it the perfect finish to any summer look.  We paired it with a wide-brim hat and the Selby Slip Dress in cream over a white HDH Swim two-piece suit.  The Finn Top’s simple silhouette and playful stripes pair easily with skirts and shorts in the summertime heat.  Throw the striped Kitchi Kaftan on over your HDH swimsuit for a day poolside or out by the lake.  We love all these looks with our favorite Pons sandals.

These designs are all one size fits most and are available alongside the new HDH swim line now on our website!

Swim

HDH designs with the idea that women’s bodies are as diverse as their skills, talents, and accomplishments.  Our swimline is no different, with designs intended to complement all unique body types.  We hope you use HDH Swim as your canvas.  Take our beautiful, basic black and white tops and bottoms and mix-and-match them to find the one that is right for you.  Use our one piece styles as the foundation for your favorite summertime looks.  Each suit is handmade in our studio with fabrics meant to last.

Our goal is to keep HDH Swim available online year round.  Unlike our Basics line, styles and colors may change over time.  Unlike our limited edition pieces, there may be more than 25 made of each swimsuit.  However, like all of our products, we believe the wearer is what make the piece unique, special.  

HDH Swim launches Monday, January 26th.
