Filippa K was founded in 1993 by Filippa Knutsson, pioneering the now-iconic look of Scandinavian minimalism. She saw a need for simple, well-made garments that answer to the real experiences of daily life while balancing style and comfort in equal measure.

Liisa Kessler joined Filippa K as Creative Director in January 2022 as the first successor to Filippa Knutsson, and is responsible for all creative aspects at the Stockholm ateliers. Trained in tailoring and dressmaking before studying fashion design, Liisa has spent the majority of her career designing for leading Parisian fashion houses including Chloé, Y/Project, Lanvin and most recently, Saint Laurent. Her international work experience combined with her own northern European roots provide her with a unique perspective to lead the fashion house into its next chapter. Liisa’s debut collection for Filippa K will be presented in June 2022.
