Gato Designs is an Alternative fashion brand heavily inspired by Japanese Street Fashion. Based in the DC metro area we attend events across the county, sharing our own brand of self expression, each look shouts out to the audience "This is Me". As a queer-owned business we aim to create items designed for comfort, inclusivity, and expression. We believe everyone should wear the garments that make them happy regardless of gender identity, clothing as no gender.
