Maria Hayes
House of Nova
What we are about:
House of Nova is a women-led production house shaped by the vision and creative authority of Maria Hayes.
As a producer, photographer, and creative director, Maria approaches fashion as both structure and storytelling — where every detail is intentional, every movement is considered, and every production is designed to leave a lasting impression. Her work is defined by a sharp editorial eye and a commitment to elevating emerging talent into spaces of visibility and impact.
Under her direction, House of Nova has become a platform where individuality is not refined into sameness, but elevated into presence. Models are developed with precision. Designers are positioned with clarity. Creatives are brought into alignment to produce work that feels both current and enduring.
On global stages such as New York Fashion Week, Maria’s vision translates into runway experiences that go beyond presentation — they become perspective. A balance of discipline and artistry, where fashion is not simply shown, but felt.
House of Nova stands as an extension of her ethos — intentional, elevated, and unapologetically focused on growth, visibility, and transformation.
Mission
At House of Nova, we are igniting a new era of the runway — one rooted in presence, power, and unapologetic identity.
We cultivate voices that refuse to be silenced, build confidence that cannot be shaken, and create a collective where individuals rise without diminishing one another. Here, talent is not contained — it is expanded, refined, and fully realized.
This is a space where creatives step forward with intention, stand in their visibility, and command the moment without hesitation.
Together, we do not compete for the spotlight.
We become it.
Vision
At House of Nova, we envision a world where presence is undeniable and every creative rises without hesitation or constraint.
From intimate creative spaces to global stages like New York Fashion Week, we are building a new runway — a convergence of fashion, culture, and legacy — where emerging talent is not only seen, but fully realized.
We see a future where women lead with authority, where diverse voices shape the narrative, and where collaboration becomes the catalyst for transformation. Through every production, every story, and every space we create, House of Nova is redefining what empowerment looks like in motion.
Because when we rise together, presence becomes power — and the impact is undeniable.
