ESTER MANASby Balthazar Delepierre & Ester Manas

Ester Manas is a sustainable, inclusive, and independent brand, often labelled as: “One Size Fits All”. However, this only describes the form. When it comes to content, the brand offers a sensual and functional universe. A smart outfit that supports women and their shapes, that reassures them, makes them strong, powerful and attractive. Each collection is inspired by a moment of joy. Our wardrobes speak for us and tell others about how we feel. They are an expression of who we are.
Ester Manas designs for proud, courageous women with a touch of humour and poetry. The garments enhance women’s shapes but never hide the body, they celebrate it.
When the brand started it seemed logical to the founders to think about the best way to produce it.
Half of the fabrics are second-hand or come from dead-stocks. The single size allows less production, reasoned purchases by the buyers and mostly, clothing that changes with women’s bodies.
