HELMSTEDT is a Copenhagen-based ready-to-wear brand founded by artist and creative director Emilie Helmstedt — a storyteller who transforms imagination into wearable worlds.

Every collection begins as a narrative inspired by nature, emotions, memories, fantasy, and the poetry of everyday life. Through her distinctive artistic universe, Emilie creates dreamlike worlds that are later translated into garments rich in storytelling and emotion.

Every HELMSTEDT piece starts as an artwork hand-painted by Emilie herself, where flowers, creatures, memories, and imagination come to life before evolving into expressive garments defined by vibrant colors, thoughtful construction, and poetic attention to detail.

At HELMSTEDT, clothing is more than fashion — it is storytelling through craftsmanship, color, texture, and silhouette. Each collection invites the wearer into Emilie’s imaginative world, where art and fashion exist hand in hand.

Known for its cinematic visual identity and distinctive artistic language, HELMSTEDT has gained international recognition from figures such as Bella Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Brie Larson, and Kelly Rutherford.

Emilie Helmstedt has been recognized as a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, LVMH Prize semifinalist, and winner of the Wessel & Vett Fashion Prize.

With storytelling at its core, HELMSTEDT creates garments that feel personal, emotional, and collectible — pieces designed to be worn as part of a story.
