about
Heimstone was founded in 2007 by Delphine Delafon and Alix Petit, who met when both working for Michel Klein. They made their mark on the fashion world by releasing a fashion video featuring a Charlotte Gainsbourg look-a-like. It was in fact Alix´s cousin who’s still today the face of Heimstone. Alix now runs the label on her own.
The Heimstone collection includes dresses, leather jackets, tee-shirt, belts, jewels and bags. Each piece is based around the use of fabrics such as leather and silk, adorned by details such as bolts and studs. On what her brand represents, Alix says, ”The Heimstone girl is cool and edgy, but she likes comfort.”
Each season, Petit revisits her concept and explores new inspirations. The clothes can be found in some of the most prestigious retail outlets in major fashion capitals such as London, Tokyo and New York. The creative headquarter and flagship store are in St. Germain-des-Prés, in Paris.
The Look
The Heimstone approach to fashion features a willingness to create innovative pieces while taking as a starting point the subjects which define and have defined the designer’s artistic personality throughout her life such as singers, movies, special cultures or history. Heimstone is a strong collection around a single style.
The Heimstone dresses are known for their comfort and may be worn both during the day, and in the evening. The dresses suit every woman, particularly those who like to express their style and taste in a feminine way.
