Our Story
What Makes Mome Special
"At Mome, we’re committed to support women on their motherhood journey by helping them feel beautiful and confident with carefully designed, quality clothing that fits the needs of on the go women who don’t want to sacrifice style or femininity for function."
All of Mome dresses are designed with moms in mind. Our dresses flatter women's changing, beautiful body throughout all stages of motherhood.
We also specialize in creating the dresses with hidden zippers built in near the bust to provide easy access for moms who are nursing or pumping. The hidden nursing zippers dresses are thoughtfully designed to be worn at any stage in life.
At Mome, we realize that children grow up in the blink of an eye, and for that reason every memory and moment with them is precious. Cherish those moments with your child matching alongside you, as every Mome style comes with a mini version as well!
Behind the Brand
Mome was founded by Nina, a mom entrepreneur with a PhD in cosmetic sciences who is passionate about all things feminine and fashion designs. Her inspiration to create a clothing line for women and children came from her own experiences as a mom.
Nina struggled to find a beautiful and functional dress that allowed her to discreetly breastfeed her baby boy on the go, and celebrated her new role and body yet still made her feel like herself again. She looked for the dress that didn’t look like a typical nursing dress; something more feminine—puff sleeves, romantic ruffles, and full skirts. She also wanted styles with a mini version, so she could match with her children for family trips or special occasions. As you might have guessed, with this gap in the market and observing similar frustrations and concerns from other mom friends of Nina’s, she decided to create her own dresses that are thoughtfully designed… and thus, Mome was created.
Handmade with Love
We believe in quality over quantity. Feel confident that these dresses can be passed down generation to generation, as we create garments of the highest quality to ensure each dress becomes a long-loved piece.
Our small batch collections are designed in Seattle, WA by Nina and ethically handmade by highly-skilled seamstresses in Thailand. For our custom dresses with fabrics that customers choose, those dresses are handmade locally in the USA by our seamstresses.
We have chosen our dressmakers carefully to be sure their work practices are in line with our brand and design values - which include utilizing handmade methods including hand cut patterns and fabrics. Taking the extra time to use these methodologies result in garments that are incredibly detailed. You will see and feel the love and passion put into every dress.
Giving Back
Mome is dedicated to giving back to communities. As part of our brand’s vision, each year we will create special collections in collaborations with like-minded people for the purpose of giving back. For each dress bought in that collection, a part of profits will be donated to the charities we love. These charities include non-profit organizations that support moms and kids in Nina’s home country of Thailand, international humanitarian organizations for children, and other local organizations in the USA.
We hope that you will fall in love with the exclusive collections Mome has to offer. Have fun dressing up for yourself because you all deserve the best!
