Our Story
LIKA CLOTHING
Crafting Timeless Elegance, Locally Made, Thoughtfully Designed.
At LIKA, we believe in the power of simplicity.
We create more than clothing—we craft timeless essentials designed for women who move through life with purpose and grace. Our pieces embody effortless elegance: neutral tones, versatile silhouettes, and thoughtful details that elevate everyday moments.
Rooted in Johannesburg, every LIKA garment is locally made with care, using sustainable, high-quality materials that respect both people and planet. We honor craftsmanship that supports community, nurtures creativity, and inspires conscious choices.
We celebrate the modern minimalist—the woman who values quality over quantity, who builds her wardrobe with intention, and who understands that true style is less about trends and more about timeless expression.
LIKA is a call to slow down, to curate, and to embrace sophistication without excess. We invite you to join us on this journey—to wear pieces that not only look good but feel right, as you live fully, confidently, and beautifully.
This is sophisticated simplicity. This is LIKA.
Founded in 2022 by Alika Steyn, the focus of the brand is to create investment pieces that are versatile, contemporary, and modern.
“My LOVE for clothes and fashion started from a very young age and since I can remember I was playing dress up and making clothes for my Barbies. I knew I had a unique style and that grew into my dream of starting my own fashion brand and designing pieces that I would wear. I am always looking for quality, contemporary, and modern styles with an exceptional good fit, but I rarely seem to find these pieces in local stores.
I wanted to create a brand of everyday classics for that modern woman that is seeking a practical and modern approach to style. I am passionate about the empowerment of women to be their best version of themselves, and I believe through fashion and clothes one can achieve that. I like to create pieces that woman can throw on and feel good in, whether you are at the office or at home, you automatically feel more confident when wearing pieces you feel good in.”

LIKA started as a side hustle, but ever since I have been retrenched from my full-time job, I`ve decided to take the big step and focus all my time and attention on the brand.”
