About Leim – Functional, Beautiful Designs You Can Make Yourself
I’m Hetty, the founder of Leim, a small design-led brand creating clothing that is both functional and beautiful – including my signature bathroom-friendly jumpsuits that don’t require you to fully undress to pee. Yes, really. Style without the inconvenience!
All Leim pieces are created slowly and thoughtfully: small-scale production in Stockholm, timeless silhouettes, and durable, sustainable fabrics. Teaching you to sew your own jumpsuit is part of this philosophy – a more conscious, joyful way of dressing.
As I settle into life in Stockholm, I’m excited to grow a community of people who love design, craft, and mindful making.
Language: I speak English and understand Swedish (learning more every day!) – we’ll make everything work smoothly together.
