Sia Arnika

ABOUT THE BRAND

SIA ARNIKA is a Danish, Berlin-based label rooted in craftsmanship and driven by tension. The brand explores experimental normality – where minimalism collides with maximalism, raw femininity intersects with utilitarian codes, and heritage meets rebellion. Each collection navigates the in-between: organic and synthetic, intimacy and performance, everyday and extraordinary. With sculptural construction and a subversive sensibility, SIA ARNIKA creates garments that are both wearable and disruptive, designed to be layered, reinterpreted, and lived in. The label embodies Berlin’s cultural edge while carrying the clarity of Nordic tradition, forging a language of fashion that is direct, atmospheric, and unmistakably its own.

ABOUT THE COLLECTION

​​It-Girl à la Sia Arnika: For the Spring/Summer 2026 collection titled “Summer Time Sadness,” the label presented its very own interpretation. The starting point for Sia Arnika was a common duality: children trying to look like adults – and adults clinging desperately to their childhood as a form of escape. The setting was a large warehouse, with a gleaming stretch limo parked in the middle of the room. The designs reflected the feeling of those summer nights that feel both endless and insufficient. The designer drew inspiration from her own childhood memories as well as the autobiography of Norwegian author Karl Ove Knausgård. The result: garments made from completely, sometimes overly sheer fabrics, silhouettes that are tight – almost too tight – and garments cinched where they shouldn’t be. Clothing that is made of pure nostalgia rather than practical logic.
