We’re packing webshop orders from our new store at Hommelstraat 27, where we’ve just started our soft opening. Surrounded by boxes, stamps, garments and an personal setting, it’s already starting to feel like home. The new location of the hullekesstorearnhem brings a steady flow of curious visitors, warm conversations, and fresh inspiration. And while we’re wrapping up your orders with attention, we’re also celebrating the start of a new chapter — both offline and online. Have you explored our new webshop yet? #arnhem #modekwartier #spijkerkwartier #sustainablefashion #duurzamemode #fashion

We’re about to say goodbye to our beloved store on Wezenstraat — the space that held so many memories, conversations, and even quite a few photo shoots. But as one chapter ends, another begins… Our new hullekesstorearnhem at Hommelstraat is taking shape as we speak. Today we’re still setting everything up, but if all goes well, we might already open our doors for a first soft day tomorrow. Hommelstraat will be the place where our aesthetics, circular practices and social mission truly come together. Have you peeked through the windows yet?

Our Toorop Beachcomber Jacket, Monet Jacket, and Cremer Jacket are each crafted from vintage wool blankets, collected, reworked, and stitched into entirely new forms. No two are ever the same. Each jacket is a singular composition; upcycled, carefully constructed at our hullekesmanufacturing Studio, sometimes with small mendings by our hullekesrecovery Studio, and now available through our webshop, resellers and the hullekesstorearnhem (which will be open very very soon on its new location!) #upcycle #upcycledfashion #wooljacket #jacket #mending #sustainablefashion

The Degas Long Sleeve Tunic is a study in movement and restraint, crafted to fall gently around the body, with a sense of quiet structure. Inspired by the understated elegance of artist’s garments, this new addition to the Hul le Kes collection offers room to breathe, to work, to pause. Made from surplus fabrics and upcycled materials, each tunic carries subtle variations that make it truly one of a kind. Now available in our webshop, resellers and in the hullekesstorearnhem.

There is something new to discover in our online collection, as we uploaded tunics and dresses this weekend. Designed with ease, movement and timelessness in mind. From the flowing silhouette of the Degas Long Sleeve Tunic, a new addition to our collection, to returning favourites like the Braque Gown and the Kahlo Tunic and Dress, now available in various fabrics. Each piece is crafted with care in our hullekesmanufacturing Studio, using surplus textiles and upcycled organic cotton from partners such as yumekohome Garments that speak softly, but say something lasting.

In the stillness of a garden, something begins to shift. At Hul le Kes, the natural world and the artist’s life are our enduring sources of inspiration; whether it’s Monet’s garden in Giverny, Oudolf’s landscapes, or the worn linen of Rodin’s studio clothes. Each of our garments carries a quiet invitation: to slow down, to reconnect, to step briefly outside the rush of daily life. Like a painting or a poem, clothing can transport. It has the power to place us in a different rhythm, a different state of mind. That’s why our designs are named after artists, not only as homage, but also as a reminder. Just as artists used canvas and clay to shape their worlds, we use fabric, stitch, and dye to offer space. Space for reflection. For care. For a different kind of presence. Clothing is a form of unspoken communication; first to yourself, your own body, and then gently, to the world around you.

A quiet moment behind the scenes with our creative director sjaakhullekes captured during one of our recent webshop photoshoots by ovlieshout Model loopey__ is wearing a natural dyed Rodin Shirt, each one uniquely treated with plant-based pigments. Just like every Hul le Kes piece, no two are ever the same. That’s why you’ll find them individually photographed and listed by size on our webshop, so you can choose the one that speaks to you most.

Soon, you’ll be able to find every garment we have in-store, and even more, through our webshop. Curious already? Take a look at hullekes.com/shop (link in bio) and discover what’s waiting for you. A new chapter for Hul le Kes is just beginning, and we’re excited to take you along. #shopping #arnhem #sustainablefashion #upcycledfashion #fashion #webshop

This week marks fash_rev Week, born in response to the tragic Rana Plaza collapse, now 12 years ago. It’s a moment to remember the inhuman conditions under which much of the world’s clothing is still produced, and a call to do better. We believe fashion can be different. Not just more ethical for the people who make it, but also less harmful to the planet. Take this Toorop Shirt, for example, made at our hullekesmanufacturing studio in Arnhem, from upcycled antique linen and dyed with natural pigments. It’s a garment that tells a story of care: for people, for materials, for time. Fashion Revolution Week reminds us why we do what we do. Not as a trend, but as a structural shift. A shirt is never just a shirt, it’s a reflection of the system that made it. Let’s change that system! fash_revnl #fashionrevolution #fashion #sustainablefashion #ethicalfashion #consciousfashion #upcycledfashion
