Welcome to Nikki Chasin

We are so excited to have you here!

Creative Clothes for Creatives Folks. 

Nikki Chasin creates clothing that helps women express themselves through color, texture, craftsmanship, and play.

Add a little play to your every day.

Wear What Lights You Up.

We believe clothing can be more than something you put on in the morning.

It can tell a story. Spark a conversation. Lift your mood. Help you feel a little more like yourself.

Inspired by vintage treasures, folk art, archival discoveries, and the beauty of handmade things, Nikki Chasin designs clothing that balances comfort, creativity, and thoughtful craftsmanship.

The result is a collection of pieces that feel special without feeling precious—and are designed to be worn often and loved for years.

Meet Nikki

After graduating from Parsons School of Design, Nikki found herself increasingly disillusioned with fashion's obsession with trends and disposability.

She wanted to create something different: clothing rooted in artistry, quality, and self-expression.

What began as a small independent label has grown into a beloved collection worn by creative women across generations—from artists and teachers to designers, mothers, grandmothers, and everyone in between.

Today, Nikki continues to design each collection from New York's Hudson Valley, drawing inspiration from travel, vintage textiles, folk traditions, and the everyday magic of getting dressed.


Made to be Loved

Wear Often. Keep Forever.

We design with longevity in mind—creating pieces that earn a permanent place in your wardrobe. The kind you reach for constantly, collect in multiple colors, and love for years to come.

Made by Real People.

Our collections are produced in partnership with skilled craftspeople and small-batch manufacturing partners who share our commitment to thoughtful, lasting design.

Thoughtful Materials

We gravitate toward natural fibers like alpaca, cotton, linen, and wool, chosen for their comfort, beauty, and longevity. When we incorporate technical fibers, it's only when they help a garment fit better, wear better, or last longer.
