Self taught through experimentation, an artist's vision, and hands on execution, Kate Towers creates non-seasonal, one of a kind pieces. Kate often plays with contrasting themes and borrows inspiration from nature and romance. Piece by piece, everything is produced by hand in her Portland studio.
From it's conception in 2000 until spring of 2008, Kate was founder and co-owner of Seaplane, a renowned specialty shop in Portland, featuring local designers and an intriguing collection of hand-made clothing. It is here where Kate developed her own line and helped to inspire the fashion scene that is now Portland.
This site is a reflection of Kate's aesthetic and a portfolio of her past and current work. Before re-locating to Portland, OR in 1998, Kate studied illustration, graphic design, and fine arts at the New England School of Art and Design in Boston.
Kate currently sells her designs at Seaplane in Portland, OR and on katetowers.etsy.com.
