I am Lotte van Stijn, a Fashion & Design Alumni of the Amsterdam Fashion Institute (AMFI).
​
The brand Lotte van Stijn is all about showcasing a new kind of power dressing: garments to take up space in a masculine world and to make you feel powerful. It displays femininity and feminine dressing as something powerful and equal to masculinity.
By mixing voluminous dresses, elements of sportswear and power suits, Lotte’s own version of power dressing was created.
The garments are not only made to physically take up space with the pieces, but also visually by using very striking colours and handmade prints.
Being an athlete herself, movement and comfort are as equally important to the designer as aesthetics and voluminous silhouettes. It doesn’t matter how big the silhouettes are, you will always be able to run in and feel comfortable in them.
