Maximilian was born in Zürich, Switzerland, and has always turned his ideas into action. At the age of six he opened his first restaurant in his bedroom, where his mother was the only customer, paying for the tap water from her own home.
At eighteen he learned that caring about clothing and styling can improve many parts of life, like confidence, creativity and the ability to express his personality. After finishing his bachelor in business psychology in Munich, he decided to move to Florence and study fashion brand management at POLIMODA. After his studies Maximilian worked for a handbag label in Munich, but realised that working for other people's dreams did not fulfil him, especially when he had no say in where or how the products were made. That realisation, and meeting the talented fashion designer Romana, were enough for him to take the risk and found his own brand.
A graduate of Istituto Marangoni, Milano, Romana brings a legacy of Italian craftsmanship and a passion for innovative materials to HACOY. Her experience in the Munich luxury fashion industry informs her unique approach to draping and construction.
Drawing inspiration from global art and culture, Romana designs each piece to be both a statement of style and a functional part of the modern wardrobe.
Italy is the world's leading producer of luxury fashion. Moreover, Italian fashion has a long tradition of craftsmanship that has always given high value to the quality of fabrics. Therefore, we partnered with a family-owned business in Ferrara, Italy, with deep experience in producing activewear, swimwear and underwear under EU labour and environmental rules.
We source in Europe wherever a fibre is grown and spun here, which keeps transport between mill and workshop short and keeps our making inside EU labour law.
Fabrics that are processed at this production include Silk and Lycra.
Fewer style choices gives the production time to manufacture in an artisanal way. This promotes craftmanship and creativity.
Every piece is cut and sewn in this family run workshop near Ferrara, under EU labour law, by people we know and visit in person.
We partnered with people who care about fashion and integrity as much as we do. Our linen workwear is cut and sewn by our partners in Vilnius.
The fabric that is processed at this production is Linen.
With the help of our partners in Vilnius Lithuania, we were able to achieve the softest, most comfortable and sophisticated workwear looks.
The skilled seamstresses pay close attention to detail while creating the clothing for our clients. A piece by HACOY guarantees high quality, precision and premium materials.
The flax for our linen is grown in France, Belgium and the Netherlands and certified European Flax. The fabric comes from our partner Baltic Flax, and the pieces are sewn here in Vilnius.
In order to ensure safe working conditions, support local communities, and maintain strict quality control, we partner with nearby factories and suppliers who share how we think about careful manufacturing.
We believe in collaborative efforts for a fairer future.
