Raffia is a natural fibre obtained from the leaves of raffia palms, particularly species of the Raphia genus. The fibres are long, flat and relatively flexible, making them suitable for weaving, braiding and crocheting. Raffia is commonly used in summer accessories, bags, hats and decorative details and has a naturally straw-like appearance, although it is botanically distinct from straw.

Founded in Los Angeles in 2016 by sisters Margaret and Katherine Kleveland, DÔEN draws heavily on vintage American and Californian references. The brand is known for romantic, feminine silhouettes, nostalgic prints, delicate details and an emphasis on natural fabrics. Its early identity was closely connected to a collective, female-led approach to the business and creative process.
