If you’ve ever wanted to visit our current hullekesstorearnhem —or return for another look—now is the time to visit us at Weverstraat 5, Arnhem, The Netherlands. In just a few weeks, we’ll be moving to a new location on the Hommelstraat. A lovely new space, with lots of personal character, but of course different from the one we’ve grown so fond of. So in these final weeks, come by to take in the atmosphere, explore pieces from our new collection, and maybe even pick up something from the last stock sale treasures still in store. Our new location will be significantly smaller, which means we simply can’t bring all our inventory with us. We’d love to welcome you—before we pack up and move on to a new chapter. #Arnhem #MovingSoon #ArnhemStore #LastChance #NewCollection #StockSale #SustainableFashion #CircularDesign

Celebrating 40+ Years of Fashion Excellence in Brussels - We are honored to have our creations featured at stijlbrussels , a landmark boutique renowned in Belgium and beyond for its dedication to avant-garde and Belgian designers. Since its inception in 1984 by Sonja Noël, STIJL has been instrumental in shaping the Belgian fashion landscape, introducing talents like Martin Margiela, Dries Van Noten, and Ann Demeulemeester. To commemorate over four decades of fashion innovation, the fashionandlacemuseum in Brussels is hosting the exhibition “40+ years of STIJL” from April 18, 2025, to January 11, 2026. This exhibition offers a unique perspective on Belgian fashion history through iconic silhouettes sold and worn over the past forty years. We are proud to announce that a set from Hul le Kes will be part of this celebration. For more details on the exhibition, visit the Fashion & Lace Museum’s website.

The Toorop Patchwork Jacket – Recovering People and Textiles | Made from upcycled cotton workwear and available in both green and blue, the Toorop Patchwork Jacket is a powerful reflection of what Hul le Kes stands for. Each jacket features extensive hand-stitching, done in our hullekesrecovery Studio—a place where both people and textiles are given a second chance. At Hul le Kes, we believe that fashion can help address two urgent issues: textile waste and mental health. Through our Recovery Studio, we offer meaningful work and structure to those in recovery, while giving discarded garments a new future. The jacket is part of a larger family of patchwork pieces: the Toorop Patchwork Trousers and the Monet Patchwork Skirt—each available in upcycled workwear as well as antique French linen. Now available through selected resellers and in our hullekesstorearnhem the Netherlands.

At Hul le Kes, our search for surplus and post-consumer waste fabrics is always guided by one key principle: choosing materials that are, first and foremost, natural. Whether it’s vintage wool blankets, deadstock linens, or discarded cotton shirts, we believe in working with fabrics that remain connected to nature. The pieces in our latest collection are no exception. Made from natural fibers and, in some cases, dyed with plant-based pigments, they reflect our belief in the power of nature—not just as a resource but as an inspiration. And this season, nature has shaped our collection in more ways than one. Curious to see how? Visit our resellers or stop by our hullekesstorearnhem to discover the collection for yourself.

What a day it was—our Open Studio & first day Spring Cleaning Stock Sale were a huge success! Both our studios and the store were filled with lovely, enthusiastic visitors from all over the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. Many left with beautiful new finds, from archived pieces to items from our latest collections. Among those new arrivals is the Morisot Blouse, as in the picture, a fresh addition to our collection, now available in-store. Tomorrow, Saturday, March 1, we are open again from 11:00 to 17:00, both at the store on Wezenstraat 5 and at our studios on Van Oldenbarneveldtstraat 79a in Arnhem. Will we see you there? And for those who live further away—no worries! Next week, our new collection will be shipped to Hul le Kes resellers worldwide.

Hul le Kes started natural dyeing as a conversation piece—a way to talk about the hidden issues of synthetic dyes in the fashion industry. We’ve become conditioned to believe that color should always remain the same, never fade, never change. But true beauty lies in imperfection, in the natural cycles of time, in the organic connection between fashion and its ecosystem. At the same time, natural dyeing challenges another wasteful habit: the endless discarding of white textiles over the smallest stain. Rather than hiding or rejecting imperfection, we highlight it. We embrace the stain, transform it, and turn it into something new—because if we want to change the world, we must also change our perspective. Did you know that you can send us your own stained garments for a dyeing service? Find it in our webshop. And if you’re visiting our Stock Sale this Friday and Saturday, you’ll find naturally dyed table linens and other special pieces available in-store. #HulleKes #NaturalDye #SustainableFashion #CircularDesign #SlowFashion #WabiSabi #DyeingService #StockSale #Arnhem

More and more pieces in the Hul le Kes collection are made from post-consumer textile waste—because discarded clothing is one of the biggest and still growing problems in the world. Shirts, for example, are often thrown away simply because their collars or cuffs have become worn or stained. Through our textile collection partners, 2switch and reshare_store , we recover these discarded shirts—too worn for resale in secondhand stores, but still full of potential. We carefully select and combine them to form a unique patchwork, transforming waste into something new: the Rodin Patchwork Shirt. New to our collection this season, but already part of our Masterpieces line, this shirt is available in checks and stripes. You’ll find it this week in our hullekesstorearnhem and next week at the first resellers of Hul le Kes. Another great reason to visit us this Friday and Saturday during our Stock Sale in the store and studios. While the Rodin Patchwork Shirt isn’t part of the sale, it is one of the newest arrivals waiting to be discovered.

As winter slowly fades, we are preparing for spring—not just in the garden, but just as much in our atelier and store. The arrival of a new season always brings movement. The first Spring/Summer pieces are making their way to our resellers around the world, new designs are arriving in our Arnhem store, and at the same time, we are preparing for something else: the biggest spring cleaning we’ve ever done. This Friday and Saturday, we are hosting a large stock sale. Not just in our store at Wezenstraat 5, but also in our studios at Van Oldenbarneveldtstraat 79a. Fabrics, garments, trims, accessories—this is the moment to discover unique pieces, remnants from past collections, and materials that have shaped our designs. For the first time, we are clearing out as much as we are now. The store and studios are only a fifteen-minute walk apart, making it easy to visit both. If you’ve ever been curious about what goes on behind the scenes, or if you’re looking for something truly special, this is the time to stop by. More information can be found via the link in our bio.
