Founded by designer Michaela Sassenbach in Starnberg, Germany, Sassenbach is a womenswear label centered on a single, exceptional material: a high-tech jersey sourced from Italy. As a former tailor and costume designer, Sassenbach sought to create sophisticated, simple, and comfortable clothing for modern women. The brand’s identity is rooted in this unique fabric, which is breathable, wrinkle-resistant, and easy to care for, making the pieces ideal for travel and everyday wear. The collections, which are produced entirely in Germany, feature minimalist silhouettes and a largely monochrome color palette, allowing for versatile and timeless combinations.\n\nThe design philosophy emphasizes clean lines and understated elegance, with a distinctive cool touch from the use of open, unseamed edges that do not fray. Sassenbach’s range includes trousers, blouses, dresses, and blazers that function as a cohesive capsule wardrobe. The brand appeals to professional women who value quality, longevity, and a polished yet effortless style. Recently, Michaela’s daughter Helena has joined the company, aiming to introduce the brand’s timeless quality to a younger, discerning audience. The label is sold through its own store in Munich, online, and via select premium retailers.
