SA Fashion Brand Kat van Duinen Aims To Provide Minimalistic Aesthetic Collections
SA Fashion Brand Kat van Duinen Aims To Provide Minimalistic Aesthetic Collections. Founded in 2010, Kat van Duinen is a leading luxury fashion and leather design house, focusing on exceptional fabrics, impeccable details and precise tailoring. The brand’s signature sustainable exotic leather pieces, as well as ready-to-wear collections are underpinned by a minimalistic aesthetic, and accented by a vibrant African spirit.
Kat van Duinen collections explore the strength of simplistic shapes that speak to discretion and are based on a luxurious spirit: premium and sustainable materials, timeless design and exquisite craftsmanship. The brand seeks to cater for the woman who adores effortless chic – that understated sexiness found in minimalist cuts, luxurious fabrics and impeccable tailoring – yet loves an element of surprise, like a hit of electric blue or vibrant shot of African print.
From exotic leather handbags and clutches crafted from exquisite ostrich, crocodile and python skins sourced only from licensed and approved suppliers, to sumptuous silk dresses, skirts and blouses, Kat van Duinen Design is the ultimate in functional yet fabulously feminine fashion. Every single piece is produced in Cape Town, proudly supporting and celebrating South Africa’s fashion industry.
At its heart, the brand is proudly South African and guided by a commitment to nurture local artisans and industry, as well as to source materials from within the rich, eclectic country – from genuine exotic leathers to natural-fibre textiles. The atelier’s confident style and timeless approach has garnered a loyal clientele who understand the value of investment pieces, and who consider the provenance and purpose of each item in their wardrobe, curating a collection of consciously chosen items.
