About Us

ANIMALISK began in silence — not in a boardroom or a showroom, but in a small apartment in Sweden, with winter outside and a weight bench in the kitchen.

We built this brand the way we rebuilt ourselves: slowly, deliberately, through every rep, every risk, and every new morning.

Hulya and Sebastian — partners in life and in vision.

Hulya is a fashion designer, trained in the UK and Sweden, with an obsession for clean lines, performance-based design, and garments that move with the body.

Sebastian, a former music producer and DJ, who always had a sharp eye for structure, rhythm, and form. His creativity was never just sound — it was spatial, physical, visual.

Together, we left everything behind to start over — new country, no safety net. What kept us grounded was movement. Training. Design. That space between survival and growth — that’s where ANIMALISK was born.

Clean lines. Silent attitude. Quiet confidence.

Because they don’t wear masks.
They adapt. They protect. They stay soft, but strike when needed.
That duality lives in everything we create — from the weight of a hoodie to the cut of a seamless legging.

Inspired by a tortoise shell. A butterfly wing. A dog’s comfort. A tiger’s focus.

We design clothing to feel like instinct.

Something you don’t think about, just move in.

MORE THAN CLOTHING

It's for the ones who’ve started over.
For the ones who carry weight that isn’t always visible.

ANIMALISK is a way of moving through the world.
With purpose. With honesty. With instinct.

Our roots are in the training room — in lifting ourselves up, literally and figuratively.

ANIMALISK creates unique everyday pieces and high-performance gymwear for those who train with purpose or want to conquer the day.

Animalisk was established by Sebastian Gheorghe & Hulya Anefi in 2024 - Borås, Sweden
