FASHION: Khaite Resort 2020
Khaite has quickly become one of the fashion houses I’m always checking in on. Started by Assembled Brands who are the creative geniuses behind the luxury shopping ‘experience’ store, The Line - The Apartment. Although those stores closed last year without much warning to their loyal customers or a reason (yes, I’m a little bitter about it!), Assembled Brands seems to have great success with creative director Catherine Holstein’s brand, Khaite.
You may have heard of Khaite recently when newly single Katie Holmes was pictured wearing a chic cashmere bra and sweater that exposed her right shoulder as she was hailing a cab in New York City. Yes, that iconic picture that broke the internet for a week, or so it seemed.
After the Katie Holmes images, I noticed more and more people outside of the typical Fashion crowd were talking about Khaite and I loved it! I think because we’ve had a hole missing with Phoebe Philo’s exit from Céline and although Philo’s genius was truly other worldly - we need new brands to fill that void and one of those for me is Khaite! So I wanted to share Khaite’s latest collection, Resort 2020.
“Designed to be cherished, each piece proposes a fresh balance of opposing elements—past and future, masculine and feminine, strength and softness, structure and fluidity—while embodying a signature sensuality and ease.”

I could switch out almost my whole wardrobe just for this collection. It’s just the right amount of feminine/masculine mix while keeping things in beautiful neutrals. Holstein is incredible at designing with textures and volume which I love her for. I own a pair of Khaite jeans which are so perfect - I wear them all the time. FYI if you’re a size 26 please pick up this pair that’s currently on sale, trust me, you won’t regret them! Would love to own more of her pieces and I’m consciously trying to shop better and invest in quality items and Khaite pieces are always on my list.
