Haus Alkire is an American fashion label headed by design partners Julie Alkire and Jason Alkire. Both the Alkires are members of the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA).[1] Established in 2012, the line is made in New York City.

Founders

[edit]

The label was founded by Julie Alkire and Jason Alkire. Besides co-designing garments, Jason employs techniques in painting, graphic design, and photography to create the custom prints used in the collections.[2] Prior to his fashion designer career Jason Alkire was an advertising executive and the publisher and creative director of SPOON magazine. The magazine was distributed by Time Warner. Julie Alkire was the editor-in-chief of the same magazine before she began her fashion career. She is known for her work on her eponymous line Julie Haus.[3]

Retail business

[edit]

In 2013, the designers opened an atelier type store dedicated to the Haus Alkire collection located on White Street in the neighborhood of Tribeca in New York City.[4]

The first collection (Autumn/Winter 2012) was shown at New York Fashion Week on February 14, 2012. The designers sought inspiration from the artist Lou Jie and the actress Elsa Martinelli's portrayal of Belle Star in the 1968 film The Belle Star Story.[5] The New York Fashion Week event was held at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts.[6]

The second collection was inspired by Hana, Hawaii. The designers used images of an imaginary creature along with Plumeria and bamboo trees as the subject for their textile prints. The showing was held at a home in the West Village area of New York City.[7]

[edit]

The designers were awarded the Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation Award for Womenswear in January 2012. The award recognizes emerging American fashion talent.[8][9][10][11]
