Jil Sander

JIL SANDER is the epitome of modernity and sophistication. Its unconditional dedication to design combines elegance and purity with innovative materials and exceptional quality. The refinement of cuts, the play on contrasts, and the perfection of details give form to an approach to fashion defined by deliberation, rigour, and artistry.

Under the Creative Direction of Lucie and Luke Meier since 2017, the Milan-based brand pioneers a modern conception of luxury, building on a legacy of minimalism with sensuality and craft. Collections for women and men include ready-to-wear, shoes, handbags and accessories.

The brand was established in 1968 by Mrs. Jil Sander and it was acquired by the OTB Group in 2021.
