"I think that one of my proudest accomplishments is that I have learned the ability to design for a customer that isn't necessarily me."

KATELYN APRILE

Originally from New Hampshire, Katelyn graduated with a B.F.A. from Parsons School of Design in 2003. She has primarily been a Knitwear Designer for her entire twenty year career. She also has experience with full package embroidery and embellishments.

Katelyn is obsessed with prints and textiles and gets her inspiration from all things everywhere. She specializes in jacquards, intarsias, crochet and textures.

Katelyn has worked directly under some of the best and most creative, strong-bad ass women and she is so truly thankful for it!- Nanette Lepore, Cynthia Vincent, Andrea Lieberman and Lubov Azria. “These women taught me so much and I constantly reference them. It’s been over fifteen years since I worked with Nanette and I can still hear her voice in my head!”
