HLCKAE

 Rethinking power dressing for the contemporary woman

Established in The Netherlands by Kathelijne Hilckmann, HLCKAE reimagines female empowerment for contemporary women. They don’t adhere to the rules of any old boys’ club – they decide what power looks and feels like for them.

HLCKAE designs for women who are confident in their femininity, their motherhood, their self- development, or the advancement of their careers. Rather than trying to ‘have it all’, they find power in the personal choices they make to create a unique life. To help them look their best to feel good in every part of their lives, HLCKAE has created their perfect capsule wardrobe.

Timeless and seasonless pieces allow women to let their personalities shine, rather than hide them behind trendy smoke and mirrors. Natural materials and high-quality European production ensure long-lasting wearability, so that women can build on their existing wardrobe instead of reinventing it every few months. The move towards slow fashion is empowering to our entire society, as it leaves women with more time and energy to spend on the people they love; and respects the environment that sustains us all.

As women increasingly choose quality of life over quantity of achievements, Kathelijne Hilckmann chooses to model her business to favor smaller and made-to-order production runs, so that every piece created finds a home.
