Nicky and Simone Zimmermann are the fashion siblings of the moment. Since the early nineties, the daughters of a German emigrant have built up their label in Sydney, Australia and have been showing their collections at the Prêt-à-Porter shows in Paris for many seasons. Margot Robbie, Princess Catherine, Taylor Swift, and Rihanna wear their delicate designs with summery silk prints, ruffles, and flounces. Lightweight crocheted tops, raffia bags with long fringes, oversized windbreakers, and denim culottes define the label’s hippie retro-style looks.
The Zimmermann sisters are now returning to the home of their father Erich with their second German store in Hamburg. The newly opened boutique is located on the Hanseatic city’s luxury shopping mile at Neuer Wall 72, in the historic Paulsenhaus. It is the brand’s second boutique in Germany. Zimmermann had already made its debut in the country on Munich’s Maximilianstrasse in 2024.
“My father grew up in Hamburg before emigrating to Australia as a teenager. So this opening is very special for Simone and me,” Nicky Zimmermann Said. She is the creative head of the label and is in charge of design. Her sister, Simone, as COO, is in charge of operations, while Nicky’s husband, Chris Olliver, is CEO of the company.
