About the Designer
Kathryn Hynes is pleased to present her clothing line for the coming season.
Her eclectic collection derives from the designer's love of complimentary extremes. Savvy looks are created using colorblocking of geometric shapes in linear, circular and angular forms. Bell-bottom pants are finished with lace inserts, classic hoodies and sweat pants are embellished with ruffle trims, and shift dresses have solid rhinestone sleeving — all of which convey a custom look of confident femininity.
Inspired by the free-spirited styles of the 1960s and '70s, as well as the classic lines of the 1940s, Kathryn has designed a collection that combines retro nostalgia with contemporary sensibility, finished with a touch of Hollywood glamour. Bold yet classic designs convey the individuality of the carefree young woman. While many of her dresses can easily segue from smart daywear into sleek and sexy evening wear, others are perfect for that one very special occasion.
For her collection, Ms. Hynes has selected the highest quality Italian and American-made fabrics, and has added luxurious details, including embellished tulling and organza, silver beading, embroidered lace inserts and her signature genuine Swarovski buttons and rhinestone sleeves. Each piece is meticulously crafted with silk linings (on most items) and French seams. Mrs. Hynes' designs come to life at her studio in the Washington, D.C. area, and all Kathryn Hynes products are manufactured in New York City's legendary Garment District. Custom designs are available and scheduled by appointment.
