GOAL

We design timeless, high-quality clothing that is made to last

What we do now

We do not produce fast or disposable fashion but focus on quality and timeless clothing. We also limit the amount of textile waste through smart choices by our design team. Our rich history of craftsmanship and our expertise on fit have led to the development of our Essentials collection, which offers the perfect basic items for a wardrobe with staying power. This timeless, quality clothing is permanently available and never on sale.

What we’ll do in the future

Knowledge is power, so we will be developing a measurable quality framework that will enable us to map out the characteristics of a quality design. We also conduct research in our Xandres Lab (pillar 6) and collaborate with designers with a specific environmental and sustainability commitment and circular start-ups to gain new insights into timeless and quality design. This helps us design the Essentials collection and supports the entire collection with a focus on reducing our environmental footprint.  We aim to make our Essentials collection more sustainable on a material level in the coming years, guided by our Material Matrix.

AS A DESIGNER, COMBINING TIMELESSNESS WITH ‘FASHION’ CAN SOMETIMES BE A CHALLENGE — IT SEEMS TO BE A CONTRADICTION IN ITS CORE. WE STRIVE FOR A GOOD BALANCE OF TRENDINESS & TIMELESSNESS IN OUR COLLECTION. OUR ESSENTIALS ARE A GOOD EXAMPLE, AS THEY PROVIDE THE BASICS YOU NEED AND CAN BE CHERISHED FOR A LIFETIME.

THE PERFECT FIT

THE PERFECT FIT

Our Essentials are clothing items in their purest form; the perfect T-shirt, that timeless blouse, the ideal little black dress and trousers that fit perfectly. Did you know that Xandres – then Andres – began as a brand of women’s trousers with a flawless fit? Our rich history of craftsmanship and our expertise about fit led to the development of the Essentials. They are full of character, have a sophisticated fit, are suitable for every occasion and are easy to combine with a wide range.

QUALITY & TIMELESS DESIGN

QUALITY & TIMELESS DESIGN

Knowledge is power. That is why we are developing a measurable quality framework. In this way, we can map out what characterises a quality design. We also do research at our Xandres Lab and enter into collaborations with sustainable designers and circular start-ups to gain new insights into timeless and quality design. This helps us design the Essentials collection and supports the entire collection with a focus on reducing our environmental footprint.
