HauteButch

HauteButch is a pioneering fashion brand that has become synonymous with masculine and androgynous clothing. Founded in 2012 by Karen Roberts and Danette Sheppard-Vaughn, HauteButch was born out of the need to provide well-fitting, stylish apparel for butch individuals who often faced frustration and limited options in the fashion industry. Karen Roberts, a butch woman herself, understands firsthand the challenges of finding clothing that not only reflects personal style but also embraces and flatters diverse body types.

With a strong inspiration from her military background in the Navy, Roberts infuses her designs with clean lines, crisp collars, and military-inspired elements, paying homage to the uniforms she admired during her service. HauteButch has become a go-to destination for those seeking menswear-inspired finishes without compromising on fit. As a queer black-owned brand, HauteButch stands as a symbol of empowerment, inclusivity, and self-expression for the butch community and beyond. With a passion for innovative and diverse styles, HauteButch continues to redefine fashion norms and provide a dignified customer experience, leaving behind the days of oppressive clothing and embracing freedom and power for all.
