Overview
DNA Clothing is the product of a collaboration between fashion designer Doris de Pont and textile artist Adrienne Foote. De Pont was an established and award winning designer, whilst Foote had been successful with her own label, Footeprints. In 1994 they created DNA Clothing, which became an internationally recognised brand and enjoyed successful shows at Mercedes Australian Fashion Week and L’Oreal New Zealand Fashion Week in the early 2000s.
