Jonathan Simkhai is a New York-based women’s ready-to-wear designer. Since launching his eponymous label in 2010, Simkhai’s unique pieces have captured a balance between masculine strength and feminine sensuality and have resonated with the modern cosmopolitan woman.

Simkhai’s introduction to the fashion world, as a buyer and merchandiser in New York, provided him with an inside look at what a woman truly desires from her garments and formed the basis for his design perspective. After gaining real-world experience within the industry, he launched his brand with a clear focus and an eye for detail and rich materials.

Jonathan Simkhai was a member of the CFDA {Fashion Incubator} program, which supports the next generation of fashion designers in New York City, and he was a 2014 nominee for the International Woolmark Prize (USA). He showed his first runway collection for fall 2015, and in November of that year, was named a winner of the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund.

Jonathan Simkhai has been a CFDA Member since 2014.
