Danielle Castor is a Christian New York–based fashion designer with deep Haitian roots, celebrated for her handcrafted couture, custom womenswear, and timeless, made-to-measure designs. Her creative journey began at seven years old in Haiti, where she spent her days crafting doll clothes for friends and family. Even then, her meticulous attention to detail and natural understanding of shape and construction revealed the young artist she was becoming.

A defining moment arrived when a woman in her thirties discovered Danielle’s talent and commissioned her to create a two-piece suit. This early opportunity marked her transition from a passionate child designer to a rising creator with a clear vision for luxury fashion.

Danielle’s path eventually led her to New York City, where she refined her skill in couture craftsmanship and luxury garment construction while working at Oscar de la Renta. After choosing to step away from her role to become a full-time mother, her commitment to fashion remained strong. She continued designing for select clients, creating custom pieces known for their precision, elegance, and cultural storytelling.

Today, Castor Couture reflects the essence of Danielle Castor as both an artist and a creator. Her work blends the vibrancy of Haitian heritage with modern New York sophistication, resulting in luxury fashion that celebrates individuality, confidence, and craftsmanship. Danielle’s journey is a testament to creativity, resilience, and the belief that true passion evolves rather than fades. She continues to shape her legacy in the world of couture while inspiring women who value artistry, culture, and beautifully made clothing.
