About Us

MARTINA MARIA EHLERS — knitwear and dresses, kept deliberately short.

Our shop is in Krefeld, a few streets back from the Rhine, and it stocks two things that answer the same question from opposite ends: a sweater for the days that ask for warmth and a dress for the days that ask for less thought. Four of each, eight pieces, and no ambition to be a department store.

What we sell

Our product type is clothing, and the range is deliberately narrow:

Cable-knit oversized turtleneck sweaters and a fringe bell-sleeve turtleneck
An earth-tone striped crew neck and a multicolour stripe V-neck with a dolman sleeve
A crochet lace midi dress in tiers with a high-low hem
Satin, embroidered bell-sleeve and lace-up faux suede mini dresses

How the range gets chosen

A knit is judged by what happens under the arm after a month, and a dress by what happens at the hemline after a wash. Each piece is worn for a week here before it is listed, then washed as the care label says and dried flat. Anything that pills, twists or drops a hem is pulled from the range instead of being marked down.

What we are not

We are not a marketplace and we do not list a style we cannot put in a box ourselves. Everything on the site is held at this address and counted by hand, which is why the catalogue is as short as it is.

Orders and delivery

Orders are handled in 1-3 business days and transport is estimated at 15 business days. Shipping is worked out by distance during checkout, so the total you approve before paying is the total we charge.

Getting in touch

Email reaches us fastest and the phone is answered during Central European office hours. For a sweater that fits tighter than expected, send the size and the measurement across the chest, and we will measure the same garment on the rail.
