Fashion, Woman-Owned
Heidi Hess Designs
Athluxury with a hint of knit
Fashion isn’t just what you wear — it’s how it fits into your life.
It should move with you, match your rhythm, and feel as natural as your favorite song.
Before launching her brand, Heidi Hess was a radio personality in New York, Chicago, and Miami — trusted for her instinct and ability to connect people to what they felt before it was obvious.
That same instinct found its way into fashion.
When Heidi wore a hand-knit shawl her mother made to the Grammy Awards, it caught the attention of Janet Jackson — and sparked a realization: clothing can move people, too.
Her mother had a feeling when she made that piece — something bigger than either of them could have known. It became the beginning of Heidi Hess Designs. Their bond lives on in every piece.
An independent, female-founded brand based between Chicago and Florida, the collection is produced in limited runs, with select textiles developed in-house. Each piece is made in the USA and designed for real life — travel, movement, and ease.
At the center is the signature Hoodie Ponch — an effortless layer that embodies refined comfort.
These are clothes you live in. Return to. Rely on.
Timeless. Effortless. Ready for anything.
