AKA New York

AKA New York was born in the spring of 2004 when three ELLE fashion editors (Abigale Levinson, Karen Reinitz, and Ana Maria Pimentel) decided to start their own line. They felt that there was something missing in the market; clothing that was fashionable yet accessible. Years of experience in the magazine industry was the perfect platform on which to build a successful fashion brand. Their philosophy is to combine elements of each of their styles to create one unique sensibility. They approach each new season through well trained editors' eyes, translating the trends they feel most strongly about into wearable clothing. They interpret key looks in the way they want to wear them, creating pieces that encourage one's personal style to shine through. The combination of the designers' personalities coupled with their diverse sense of style is what AKA New York is all about.
