Eckhaus Latta
New York City-based brand Eckhaus Latta is the brainchild of close friends and business partners Mike Eckhaus and Zoe Latta, who met during their respective studies in sculpture and textile arts at Rhode Island School of Design. The duo embarked on creative and entrepreneurial pursuits following graduation, gaining experience which they would ultimately parlay into the launch of their avant-garde fashion label in 2012. With a dynamic design process based on intuition, emotional connection, and a conceptual approach to proportion play, Eckhaus Latta’s womenswear collection seeks to resonate with a clientele whose relationship with their wardrobe is equally personal and independent of trends. Unexpected fabrics and prints are shown to their best advantage in amply-cut skirts and trousers, while multi-tonal knits and panelled blouses boasting half-sewn hems and precise cut-outs project deconstructed allure.
