BRAND BY KARLIE HOFERICHTER
Kassiera is a line of luxury silk scarves designed by Karlie Hoferichter and produced in Lake Como, Italy. The brand is designed to provide beautiful luxury items at a price point that is accessible to the average fashionista. The scarves are made in Italy with hand-stitched rolled edges on 100% silk twill fabric. They come in two collections; The Quad Collection and the Fleur Collection.
The history of Kassiera as told by the designer:
I studied at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, frequently working retail jobs at luxury stores part time. Enamored with luxury fabrics and quality craftsmanship, I was particularly drawn to the silk scarves offered by many of the brands. I also loved how people shopped for them- buying them for gifts, keepsakes, or to add a little pop to the neutral-colored handbag that they had just invested in.
I also have a strong passion for eco-friendly fashion. However, as a 20-something year old, I’m also very aware that most people can’t afford a $300-$400 silk scarf, so I wanted to create an alternative option for people who want a luxury product at an affordable cost.
While practicing conscious-consumerism, scarves are a versatile way to change up a neutral, timeless look that you can wear over and over again in different ways for years to come. With hand-rolled edges, 100% silk twill fabric, and strong oversite of production at our factory in Lake Como, Italy, you can add a touch of luxury to your life with a Kassiera Scarf.
