At HĀNM, fabric is where everything begins.
Before a stitch is made or a colour is chosen, we start with the fibre — because true comfort and quality are woven from the inside out.
One of our most loved materials is Modal — a plant-based fabric known for its incredible softness and sustainable origins. Here’s why we choose it, and why you’ll feel the difference every time you wear it.
Here's 7 Facts About Modal:
1. From Nature, Not Synthetics
Modal is made from the cellulose of beech trees — a renewable natural resource that gives it both softness and strength.
2. Silk-Soft Finish
Often called “vegan silk”, Modal’s smooth touch and fluid drape bring an understated luxury to everyday wear.
3. Breathable by Design
Its fine fibres allow air to flow freely, keeping you cool and comfortable even in warmer climates.
4. Drapes Like a Dream
Modal moves effortlessly with the body, creating graceful silhouettes that flatter without clinging.
5. Colour That Lasts
Modal absorbs dye deeply, resulting in richer tones that stay vibrant wash after wash.
6. Thoughtfully Produced
High-quality Modal is created through a closed-loop system — reusing water and solvents to reduce environmental impact.
7. Built to Endure
Unlike traditional cotton, Modal resists shrinking, pilling, and fading — ensuring your HĀNM pieces stay beautiful over time.
Softness isn’t just how it feels — it’s how it’s made.
Every HĀNM piece crafted from Modal is designed to move with you, breathe with you, and last with you.
