About us

Solsken is a fashion label that combines Swedish designs with a love for slow fashion, sustainability, and Cape Town living. As a small start up business, we are dedicated to creating stylish pieces that reflect our passion for Cape Town and its surrounding nature. Solsken, meaning "sunshine" in Swedish, is a contemporary clothing brand that seamlessly merges the best of Scandinavian design with the vibrant energy of Cape Town.

Meet the team

Our bags are handmade in Cape Town. Vensensia, Emily, and Charmane are putting all their love into the designs and lightening up every room with their positive energy. As a female owned company, we want to uplift females in surrounding areas of Cape Town and bring sunshine into the world. Our aim as we expand is to upskill unemployed females through training programs in the communities.

The brand

We focus on creating quality products in limited quantities, so customers always get a piece that is unique and not mass-produced. Designed and produced from start to finish in the Mother City.

Each piece is constructed with a commitment towards sustainability and quality, ensuring that we are conscious of our footprint on this earth. Solsken uses a combination of recycled materials like T- Shirt yarn and cotton in our clothes. This allows us to create sustainable and comfortable clothing while reducing our environmental impact. Solsken is more than just a clothing brand; it is a celebration of the beauty and diversity of both Swedish and South African cultures, bringing sunshine into your wardrobe wherever you go.
