Donna Karan Clothes Section:
Donna Faske was born in New York in 1948. She later married Mark Karan. In 1985 Donna Karan started her own label, the Donna Karan
Collection. The DKNY style is very casual chic and is accessible to all.
Donna Karan grew up in Long Island with her step-father who was a tailor and her mother who was a model. Being trained at Parson's School of Design, she entered the busines herself, designing for Anne Klein. Eventually she became head of the Anne Klein design-team and remained in this position until 1984.
In 1985, she left Anne Klein and founded her own company DKNY. At first she became known for her line of elastic bodies. Then word spread about her Essentials line, offering seven easy pieces every woman should have in her closet. The Essentials line became a success and the seven pieces were broadened to about 200 pieces today.
