First seen on the AW20 runway, Khaite’s black Desi dress channels a romantic mood through its plunging sweetheart neckline – a cut that originated during the renaissance period. It’s crafted from sheer tulle that’s punctuated with crystals at the bust and gathered waist before falling to a flowing full-length skirt.
Pronounced ‘Kate’, New York-based Khaite’s ready-to-wear collections are characterised by the kind of contradictions that epitomise the city it hails from. Everyday pieces are realised in exquisite materials; classic luxury elements reworked with a modern twist. Running through them all is a simplicity and a sensuality that makes them unquestionably covetable.
Vogue UK News Editor, Alice Newbold says: “The kind of Wedding-Guest dress that turns heads at the reception; sparks envying glances across the dance floor; and prompts tipsy enquiries about its origins in the bathroom”. 21 March 2021.
