DANTE6’s unique brand identity characterizes through a (Rotterdam) nonchalant attitude, delivering versatile feminine designs for women with a confident, effortless, and luxurious style. Aiming to inspire and complement every woman’s personal perspective on a timeless wardrobe to look beyond beautiful for any occasion.  

High quality fabrics, responsible products and the love for craftsmanship are the focal points of the brand DNA. The modern collections are a fusion of form and function, a balance of aesthetic elements and attention to detail. 

Evelyne’s personal experiences, travel, art and architecture inspires her to design collections that are focused on reflecting the needs of women throughout the world with confidence, because it’s the most alluring thing a woman can have. Her motivation is to create wardrobes that are meant to be treasured, transcend seasons and can be passed down through generations. 

The name Dante came to Evelyne’s mind in a dream and refers to Dante Alighieri - an Italian poet and writer - who had an unattainable love and had to overcome various challenges to reach his ultimate purpose. “I found his work such a beautiful inspiration, because it reflects the passion I experience in my work, when crafting the perfect design”.

After more than a decade, Dante6 has evolved into an international fashion brand, with a diverse and dedicated team, and a culture of relentless creativity, quality, and unity. “The shared passion and love for our creations form the foundation of the success of DANTE6”, Evelyne shares.
