To me, vintage clothing isn’t just clothing. It’s history. Every piece has a past, a mystery. Who wore it before? Was it a gift? Did it sit forgotten in a closet, or was it someone’s favorite piece? Maybe a rockstar wore it once, or it was someone’s special heirloom . That’s the beauty of vintage: it carries untold stories. And I love adding a new chapter to them.

I curate vintage pieces and turn them into wearable art. Using high-quality paints, I transform each item into something one-of-a-kind. Bold, rebellious, full of personality. Think rock and roll, punk, feminism and alternative movements: all with a groovy twist.

But The Dutch Rebel isn’t just about making cool clothes. It’s a statement against fast fashion and the colorless, mass-produced sameness that’s taking over. The fashion industry is one of the biggest polluters on the planet. Instead of adding to the problem, I upcycle what’s already out there. Sustainability isn’t a trend for me; it’s a way of life. Almost everything I own, my clothes, my furniture, is secondhand. Why buy new when the world is already full of amazing things?

This brand is an open invitation to embrace your boldest, most authentic self. Whether it’s through unique fashion, a rebellious mindset or just choosing to live life your way. You belong here.

Dare to be different. Welcome to The Dutch Rebel.
