Hasta La Ideas

Bekväm Clothing, named for the Sweedish translation of the word “comfortable,” is meant to be easy to wear, with simple lines and pretty, feminine details.

The cuts are classic, yet contemporary; scalloped details and Peter Pan collars dominate its spring lookbook. The garments are crafted with natural materials, relying heavily on organic cotton, linen, silk and hemp.

Hannah Elise, a college student and self-taught clothing designer, is the woman behind Bekväm Clothing. Based in McMinnville, Oregon, she makes dresses, separates and accessories by hand and posts them online in small batches. Each batch sells out within days. She informs her customers of new items through her blog and mailing list.
