BENEDICTE

Since 2005 we – Robert and Benedicte van Helden-Leenen – are the owners of BENEDICTE | Fashion for Women in Nijmegen. We took over the business Ste Claire Mode (since 1985) from Veronique Vandeginste, who with verve has established a beautiful boutique. A special boutique in the high segment women’s fashion, with many top brands, including initially Rivamonti, Gunex, Allude, Jacob Cohen, Robert Friedman, Natan, Scapa, Ralph Lauren, Erny van Reijmersdal, Mark, and Xandres.

We have since shifted our focus to the high-end segment of the market by adding brands such as Fabiana Filippi, Adriano Goldschmied jeans, Antonelli Firenze, Simone Bruns Cashmere Couture, Harris Wharf London, Seductive Pants, Zimmerli, and Santoni. In addition, German Annette Gortz has always remained a “regular pillar” in our brand palette.

Given our penchant for quality and luxury appeal combined with our love for Italy, we prefer to carry Italian labels. With our years of experience as entrepreneurs in ‘fashion-land’ complemented by a background in business administration (both Business University Nijenrode), we are able to empathize with the wishes and needs of our customers.

Benedicte is a womenswear boutique located in Nijmegen center with a.o. Annette Gortz Seductive Pants Fabiana Filippi Santoni Antonelli and Harris Wharf London. In our store our collection is more extensive than in the webshop. In the online shop we mainly focus on brands such as Annette Gortz, Seductive Pants and Santoni.
