The brother and sister team of Chris and Nicole Kunz and their label Nicholas K may seem like a new brand on the U.S fashion scene due to their recently acquired hot label status, but they’re far from freshmen. As they close in on a decade of design, it’s important to notice that from the very first looks of their 2003 launch, their work already contained many elements of their naturally signature style. In the following years there has, of course, been experimentation with shape, texture, and construction as they’ve zeroed in on their form of fashion. And as with all of the really strong brands, there has been refinement from season to season, but the style they were going for has been apparent from day one.
