Creative Pattern Maker at Róhe

The Brand

The Róhe philosophy centers on an infinite dialogue of quiet confidence, where craft, innovation, and an artistic community converge. This ethos is evident in both architectural and curatorial decisions. The collections are defined by a refined yet unexpected perspective on modern dressing. Often inspired by a harmonious blend of historical and contemporary elements. A personal garderobe that transcends seasons, with each piece seamlessly complementing the existing collection. A conscious approach, by making long-lasting investment pieces for today’s women. Róhe focuses on exceptional Italian fabrics, uncompromising quality, and considered craftsmanship. Curating spaces and collections that reflect a commitment to timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and a deep appreciation for art and culture. Contrasts are central to the brand: high-end yet grounded, elegant yet practical, visionary yet structured. Founded in 2021 by Marieke Meulendijks & Maickel Meyers.
