Zeus+Dione

Zeus+Dione produce a minimal womenswear collection influenced by heritage, rooted in mythology and symbolism, and created with precision. Named after the parents of the ancient Greek Goddess of love, beauty and eternal youth, the brand transcends classical notions of style and design.

Each collection is inspired by an aspect of ancient culture, with an ongoing undertone based on the Greek letter, Delta Δ, alluding to spirituality, harmony and creativity. Clean lines are embellished with intricate details and elegant patterns based on geometric shapes, and inspired by doric elements.

With design and creativity at its core, Zeus+Dione was born from a passion to revive and redefine local artisanal craft across Greece, and produce pieces that go beyond tradition. Each design seeks to marry classicism with contemporary design.

Textiles are custom made, and cut by expert artisans using traditional techniques. Silk is exclusively woven for Zeus+Dione, and hand crafted in a mill in Soufli. Individually cut shirts are hand embroidered in Metsovo, or hand knitted in the Cyclades. Designs are adorned with traditional patterns, and intricate motifs hand woven in Crete.
