THE LABEL
CHRISTINA KARIN is an attainable and responsible luxury women's wear brand designed to empower through a fearless, modern edge and sophistication started by Christina Karin Monley in 2012.
Headquartered and designed in Chicago, the brand is known for season-less separates, elevated essentials and modern day-to-night standouts, many of which have an emphasis on sustainable design and a thoughtful approach to slow fashion.
Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Christina Karin Monley's mission is for each collection to empower women regardless of background, age, or circumstance. Being a working mother of two, Christina doesn't allow societal standards to define or limit her style choices.
In 2019 the label expanded to its first Retail Flagship location and Design Headquarters in the Bucktown neighborhood of Chicago. The brand plans to continue its growth by expanding to multi-national cities across the globe by 2025.
THE DESIGNER
“When CHRISTINA KARIN first launched, my Chicago apartment was filled with bolts of fabric rolls, and my husband helped ship orders. We were the duo behind everything. Thankfully, we have grown our business with the support of incredible customers and a highly driven team, and the brand is now available in stores across the globe as well as our own flagship location in the heart of Chicago’s trendiest neighborhood. With global plans in the works, we are far from our goals, but enjoy each day creating such a meaningful brand that helps inspire women to be the best version of themselves. “
- Christina Karin Monley, Founder & Chief Creative Officer
