The Designer

I’m Abelone Wilhelmsen.

I grew up in Copenhagen in a family of craftsmen, where I learned that beautiful things are made with patience, dedication, and respect for the art of making.

Today, I design from Antwerp, creating seasonless pieces that combine Scandinavian simplicity with Belgian creativity. Every collection begins in my atelier - with a fabric, a shape, or a detail that sparks curiosity and becomes a garment designed to last.

My journey has always been guided by craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and a belief that true style goes beyond trends. I create pieces that are quietly refined, consciously made, and designed to become favourites for years - not just seasons.

With simplicity at the heart and a dash of rebel in the details.

Founder & Designer,

Abelone Wilhelmsen

A CREATOR brand with a dash of REBEL
