High school valedictorian; biochem grad from the University of Arizona (add sum cum laude); tennis player and instructor; Eller MBA graduate; world-traveled model; hunter, fisherman, and hiker; cofounder, corporate director, and stunning look book model at a growing NYC-based apparel company—meet Christopher Kunz!
Former national tennis competitor, student of the Polimoda School of Design in Florence and FIT in New York, designer for DKNY, founding team member of Coach men’s sportswear, consultant for Calvin Klein, design overseer for half a dozen big-name labels, and cofounder and designer of an emerging NYC-based fashion company—meet Nicholas Kunz!
What is the molecular reaction when you combine a naturally talented brother and sister duo like the Kunzes? You got it: Nicholas K!
Born in Tucson of a Chinese-Russian mother and German-Irish father, Christopher and Nicholas were raised in the outdoors of Arizona, which they have consistently interpreted—season after season since 2003—into casual urban apparel at Nicholas K in New York.
Together, the brother and sister team have volleyed the company into the international arena where their line is now carried in over 100 stores across 6 countries.
Watch out for this hard-hitting duo as they continue to fuse urban living with life in the outdoors!
Now, take a stroll with Nicholas as her brother walks you through the chic ruggedness of spring and summer 2009!
