Daniëlle Cathari designs her namesake Amsterdam womenswear label, founded in 2018 after she worked in the adidas design studios and presented an adidas Originals capsule at New York Fashion Week built from reassembled tracksuits. The label applies that cut-and-rebuild method to sportswear staples: track pants, jersey separates and outerwear with contrast panelling, spliced seams and asymmetric lines. Cathari also designs outside the label, with collaborations including Woolrich outerwear and a reworked Clarks Originals Wallabee. Pieces sell through SSENSE and Amsterdam retailer Maha.
