About Kate’s Clothing

Kate’s Clothing is a leading UK retailer of gothic, punk, and alternative fashion, known for its curated style, inclusive sizing, and commitment to individuality.

We proudly stock brands like Dark in Love, Necessary Evil, and Punk Rave, and we’re now developing UK-based manufacturing for our house brand as part of our commitment to slow fashion and sustainability.

Founder Story

Kate, who holds a First Class Honours degree in Chemical Engineering, took a surprising pivot to enter the fashion world. Her deep love for gothic aesthetics, combined with a lifelong hobby of fashion design, took on a life of its own. As a child, she filled scrapbooks with her clothing design ideas - now, those designs live through Kate's Clothing.
