     Armed with experience operating in an Italian luxury knitting mill, Khanh saw an opportunity to bridge a gap between design and manufacturing.

      That’s how KBN knitwear was born :  a studio with a collaborative approach, enabling fashion designers to dialogue with garment developers, so they can build impactful knit products together.

       KBN Knitwear was founded by Khanh Brice Nguyen, a French Vietnamese knitwear designer established in London and creative director of his namesake fashion label.
     Khanh first collaborated with other designers on developing their knit collections.
Despite the commercial success of those collaborations, bringing them into production was challenging, as factories aren’t accessible to independent brands.
