Designer Daniella Kallmeyer has been building her namesake label Kallmeyer for over a decade, from less than $7,000 into one of New York’s most exciting labels with two thriving stores and a devoted following. Fresh off a buzzed-about NYFW show, a CFDA nomination for Womenswear Designer of the Year, and Zoe Kravitz in a custom pink dress, Daniella shares how she’s redefining luxury on her own terms - with a focus on cut, craft, and creating a wardrobe that women actually want to live in. We also chat about the grind behind so-called “overnight success,” the romance of retail, and how restraint might just be the secret to success.
