Pronounced “Kate,” the New York-based women’s ready-to-wear brand takes its name from the Greek word meaning “long, flowing hair.” That sentiment is core to the effortless, cool-girl aesthetic of KHAITE. Founded in 2016 by creative director Catherin Holstein, a graduate of the Parsons School of Design, the brand is an expert in reimagining classic pieces that offer the perfect contrast of feminine softness and strength.
