About

Andersen believes that clothing should serve the wearer, with a focus on movement, agency, and empowerment.

“This is tailoring you can skate in, denim you can dance in, and shirts you can travel in.” - Astrid Andersen

Inspired by a blend of design, art, architecture, and Andersen’s Scandinavian heritage, each piece features intuitive design, meticulous attention to detail, and high-quality materials. The precise proportions create softly powerful shapes that offer flexibility and adaptability, empowering the wearer while supporting STEL's goal of lifetime wear.

STEL Collections are organised by number and designed for in-season presentation, emphasising relevance over traditional seasonality. Collection Items can be blended across buying seasons, both in customers' wardrobes and in the retail space.
