About Us!
At Zillo, every stitch tells a story of resilience and reinvention. Our founder, Amara van der Linden, began this journey on a rain-soaked afternoon in Amsterdam. As a young mother juggling a corporate career, she grew frustrated by the lack of clothing that mirrored her dual identity: a woman rooted in Dutch tradition yet unapologetically modern. One evening, while mending her grandmother’s vintage linen dress—a garment passed down through generations—she realized true luxury isn’t about perfection, but purpose.
Amara’s hands, still trembling from a layoff notice she’d received that morning, sketched her first design that night: a dress that blended her grandmother’s timeless craftsmanship with sharp, contemporary lines. She pawned her heirloom pearls to buy fabric, working dawn to dusk in her tiny attic studio. Three months later, Zillo.Store was born—not just a brand, but a rebellion against compromise.
Today, we craft luxury clothing for women who, like Amara, refuse to shrink themselves to fit molds. Our pieces are forged in the heart of the Netherlands, where windmill-silhouetted horizons meet avant-garde ambition. Every garment is a love letter to the fearless: linen dresses that drape like poetry, tailored blazers that command boardrooms, and silhouettes that whisper, "You are enough."
For the woman who wears her scars like sequins and her dreams like armor—Zillo.Store is your anthem.
