Khaite

Founded in New York in 2016 by designer Catherine Holstein, Khaite has established a distinctive place in contemporary luxury through a refined dialogue between strength and softness. The label’s name, inspired by the Greek word for long, flowing hair, reflects an instinct for tactile beauty, while its collections express a modern American sensibility grounded in confident ease. Khaite’s design language is recognised for its considered contrasts: sculptural tailoring against fluid drape, polished leather beside sumptuous knitwear, and feminine silhouettes balanced by a quietly audacious attitude. Across the women's collection, familiar wardrobe forms are reimagined with precise proportions, exceptional materials and subtle, sensual detail. Discover the house through Khaite Bags, where architectural structure and supple finishes create pieces designed for daily distinction, or explore Khaite Clothing, encompassing elevated staples and statement silhouettes that move effortlessly between occasions. The Khaite Accessories edit introduces discreet finishing touches, while Khaite Shoes bring the same assured balance of comfort, line and presence. Khaite’s signature Shoulder Bags capture the brand’s preference for practical glamour, often pairing sculptural hardware with supple construction. In knitwear, Cardigans transform a familiar layer through tactile yarns, considered volume and elegant proportions. A collection of Regular Belts offers a polished way to define the silhouette, completing a wardrobe built around quiet confidence rather than fleeting novelty. Each design carries an unmistakable sense of intention, balancing wearability with expressive detail and allowing luxurious materials to speak through texture, movement and finish. From softly structured daytime dressing to distinctive evening accents, the collection invites a personal approach to modern refinement, with versatile pieces that retain their character season after season. At EMVANO, Khaite is presented as an enduring expression of contemporary luxury, where every piece is designed to feel both immediate and lasting.

Subtle hardware, supple finishes and assured proportions allow each design to transition naturally between seasons, offering a sense of refinement that feels intentional rather than overstated.
