One of the underground heros of Bonnie Heart Clyde, Emily Katz, is presenting her own clothing line called Emily Katz. I didn’t have a chance to speak with her so I won’t be able to give any insightful quotes but I think her designs reveal more through wearing them than anything anyone could say. She did mention that Bonnie Heart Clyde will be taking a break during this time while Emily will be taking time to produce and manage the new line.

This is taken from her myspace:
Emily Katz is a fashion label out of Portland, Oregon striving to fill a niche in the fashion industry and become a staple in your closet.

Fabrics such as soy jersey, hemp/recycled poly denim, and organic cotton fleece support the simple elegance of the silhouettes, while making a statement about our place in the environment.
