Designer Dani Kaiser Helps Kick Off High Altitude Night at Denver Fashion Week

Designer Dani Kaiser shares a personal journey through winter fashion created for the après-ski lifestyle. The world of fashion design often brings intense competition, financial obstacles, criticism, and long working hours that can impact mental well-being. A designer can either surrender or draw strength from these hardships. Kaiser chose the latter path.

At just 25, Dani Kaiser of Dani K Designs realized her dream early. When she was nine, a TIME for Kids article about a young clothing maker inspired her to start designing her own outfits. By thirteen, she gained attention from local media for transforming her sketches into real garments. Her passion guided her to study fashion at the University of Cincinnati, shaping her professional career.

“They saw the creative side of me and often gave me things for Christmas and birthdays to tap into that,” Kaiser recalls.

Kaiser credits her great-grandmother as her biggest supporter, who taught her to sew and, together with her great-aunt, helped buy her a quality sewing machine. Their belief in her creativity fueled Kaiser’s dedication to fashion from a young age.
