What we do.
SOMBRE, rooted in Paris, stands as a designer brand specializing in ready-to-wear fashion. Our commitment to inclusivity is reflected in our genderless garments, designed to suit all identities. We take pride in producing our clothes within the European Union, predominantly in Portugal, while sourcing our fabrics exclusively from the EU. Ensuring both quality and environmental responsibility, all our fabrics are OKEO-TEX certified.
Who we are.
Born from a period of personal turmoil and the quest for meaning amidst darkness, SOMBRE is Noé Hieronimus' brainchild.
SOMBRE is fundamentally a personal brand for the youth. In a world where younger generations are constantly bombarded by global narratives of despair through screens, SOMBRE emerges as a beacon of resilience. We recognize that the very darkness and chaos, which seem to envelop the youth's mindset, can paradoxically offer liberation. Inspired by the uninhibited freedom found on a dark & chaotic nightclub dance floor, SOMBRE embodies the philosophy that in the face of a complicated world, one should embrace life with the fervor of a party-goer, finding solace and escape within.
Our ethos challenges the traditional dichotomies of good vs. bad and joy vs. despair, advocating for the acceptance of imperfections as a catalyst for growth. Drawing inspiration from the gritty yet glamorous nightlife of the 70s and 80s, SOMBRE celebrates the night as a space for fleeting liberation from societal expectations and the relentless march of time.
One of SOMBRE's key missions is to create gender-neutral fashion. We believe that the concept of gender-specific attire is outdated. Despite anatomical differences, we strive to transcend these through versatile designs that cater to all, emphasizing simplicity and inclusivity.
Moreover, SOMBRE navigates the stylistic tension between the refined elegance of Parisian Chic and the bold freedom of New York style. Our aim is to harmonize the sophisticated allure of Paris with the New York guts, creating a unique blend that appeals to those who yearn for a taste of both worlds.
SOMBRE offers a personal perspective on chic, distilling life's complexities into refined elegance. It empowers you to author your own life story amidst the chaos of the world.
Join us on the SOMBRE journey—embrace resilience and elegance, and discover the intricate balance of darkness and light in life.
