Nomadic elegance, essential luxury, chic casual wear...
Ten years after its creation, Maison Ullens remains faithful to a philosophy built upon travel and quality. Season after season, the brand offers the ideal wardrobe for a woman constantly on the move.
Fluid, versatile, modular, Maison Ullens pieces can be folded into a suitcase, slipped into a 48-hour bag and interpreted in a unique way. A knitted jumpsuit comes off the plane and is easily accessorized with a jewel.
A waistcoat takes the train in blue and reappears with its other side, in black, for a professional meeting. Since the beginning, the company has offered travel kits, jumpers, jackets, dresses, trousers and T-shirts in reversible cashmere.
Signature pieces, embodying absolute comfort. Unaffected by passing trends and allergic to flashy logos, Maison Ullens is more of a lifestyle than a fashion brand. Its first concern is quality. The yarns and materials are rigorously sourced, and the garments manufactured in the best Italian factories. Knitwear makes up the bulk of the collections. And, under delicious names, sweet cash', mousse de cash', a high level of technicality is developed. Leather, as supple as a glove, is the other key element of the brand. But the range also includes cotton, silk and shearling, all synonymous with maximum softness.
The work on volume is a sign of the elegance of a silhouette. All of this in a range of subtle colors that emphasizes the personality of the wearer, a connoisseur who pays attention to detail but above all to quality and origin. The timelessness of these garments allows them to stand the test of time, to be truly durable. The first encounter with a Maison Ullens piece is above all tactile. It is the touch that creates the sensations and therefore the adhesion.
The focus is on a set of pieces of clothing in which women are happy to live. Christian Wijnants, Creative Director of Maison Ullens A graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp in 2000, Christian Wijnants has established himself as one of the major creators on the Belgian scene. He won the Grand Prix of the Hyères Festival in 1997, before creating his own label in 2003. Three years later he was awarded the ANDAM prize and in 2013 he was also awarded the Woolmark Prize. Discretion is the major trait of his fashion, which highlights an intelligent femininity.
His frank colours and supple silhouettes allow the body to move in a sensual way without cliché. He is not interested in the fashion of the flashy, and there is no greater compliment to pay him than to wear his clothes for ten or twenty years. All this forms, by his own admission, a set of similarities with Maison Ullens.
