Wearable textile art
Hand-beaded garments built one bead at a time. Each piece is original, intuitive, unrepeatable.
What I actually use
Everything linked is something I use daily. Sunday Riley is my most-reached-for brand — I trust the formulas completely.
Good Genes Lactic Acid
Sunday Riley — exfoliates, brightens, plumps
U.F.O. Face Oil
Sunday Riley — acne treatment oil, daily use
Ceramic Slip Face Wash
Sunday Riley — gentle, everyday cleanser
My daily wig
The one I wear most — long, black with blue highlights
Laneige Glaze Craze Lip Serum
Tinted lip serum — glossy, nourishing, the gloss I always reach for
"These are the products that keep my skin clear while I'm up late beading. No fluff — just what works."
The craft
Every piece starts with these. Links go to TikTok Shop.
Cinema
I built an app for film lovers, and I make films too.
Never lose a film you wanted to watch. FindMyFilm helps you track, discover, and remember every film that's crossed your radar — no more scrolling through your camera roll for that screenshot you took six months ago.
I'm currently completing a short film submitted to the Sofia Coppola fellowship program. Links to vote and support the production will live here soon.
Links will be live once submission period opens. Check back or follow @noaomane for the announcement.
The film explores themes of identity, transformation, and the archive of self — ideas that live in the same world as the beadwork. It's all one practice.
The person behind it all
Noa Omane is a New York City based textile artist, costume designer, and filmmaker. Her practice centers on hand-beading — placing thousands of glass beads onto vintage and found garments, building images and weight over months of intuitive work.
Her label, Refaire Archive, documents this ongoing body of work. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, made without patterns, guided entirely by instinct and the material itself.
Alongside the textile practice, Noa built FindMyFilm — an iOS app for cinephiles — and is currently completing her first short film, submitted to the Sofia Coppola fellowship program.
