(literally human-like) is our favorite label from the Netherlands... the collection is characterized by the use of fabrics that envelop the body in COMFORTABLE LUXURY, resulting in clothes with a relaxed fit that are an absolute pleasure to wear... elegant basics with an edge. Heist is proud to carry one of our favorite European designers, Humanoid. Though the Humanoid label is just starting to take off in the U.S., the brand was launched over 26 years ago by Sandra Harmsen and Hans Boelens. The Holland-based designer clothing line celebrates an urban chic style sensibility. The goal of the designers is to create clothing that is incredibly comfortable to wear; a task achieved by their dedication to using fabrics that feel good on the body. Humanoid also specializes in the use of eco-friendly innovative fabrics. Shorts crafted from bean and bamboo sound like they belong in a garden, but their unbeatable comfort was meant for the modern city girl with style.
Humanoid’s designs are characterized by body-hugging shapes that fall in soft drapes and billowing silhouettes against the skin. They describe their clothing as ‘elegant with an edge… perfect for the modern urban warrior.’ Indeed, it is easy to envision city dwelling women across the globe navigating the urban jungle in their beautifully draped pieces. Humanoid dresses have a graceful fluidity, with carefully designed lines that prevent that garment from hanging shapelessly. The frocks are well-paired with thick tights, a fitted jacket, and another signature Humanoid item - the slouchy ankle boot. Humanoid’s popular ankle boots come in flat soles as well as with low heels; heights made for trekking through the city. On chilly days, their light, airy cardigans can be thrown over almost anything thanks to the neutral colors and versatile shapes. Overall, Humanoid is a line that has something to offer for every stylish urbanite.
