What to know about Heste Jente
Knitwear leads, boleros anchor it
The line is built around experimental knits — multicolored sweaters, vests, shrugs and signature bolero tops in relaxed shapes, often sold as matching sets with tie-dyed flared trousers.
Loud color, not Copenhagen restraint
Despite the Danish base, the palette is maximalist: saturated multicolor knits and tie-dye rather than the neutral minimalism the city is usually associated with.
An artist's womenswear label
It is the womenswear project of multimedia artist Sophie Linnemann, who also works in visual art and textile design, drawing on film and her grandmother's antiques.
