SENSE Method™
An emotional, intuitive way to dress and design your home — by choosing how you want to feel.
At Holland Street, we believe style begins long before you open your wardrobe or step into a room. It begins with a feeling. The SENSE Method™ is our new emotional styling philosophy — a way to dress and design your home by tuning into your mood, your energy and the atmosphere you want to create.
Holland Street is proud to announce the launch of the SENSE Method™, a new emotional styling framework designed to help women dress and style their spaces with feeling, clarity and intention. Rooted in the brand’s signature aesthetic of softness, drape and expressive ease, the SENSE Method™ invites women to choose how they want to feel — and dress accordingly.
“I created the SENSE Method™ because I believe style is a form of emotional clarity. When a woman chooses her three words, she’s choosing her energy for the day. She’s choosing herself. Holland Street is here to support that — to help her feel empowered, grounded and beautifully aligned with who she is becoming.” say Founder Lauren Barfoot.
The SENSE Method™ is built around five intuitive steps:
S — Start With Noticing the Mood
Each mood sets the emotional tone for the day.
E — Express/Explain Your Three Words
Women select three words that describe how they want to feel — calm, soft, wrapped, fresh, bold. These words become their emotional compass.
N — Notice What Your Body Wants and Needs
Minimal, draped, cocooned, fluid, expressive — the method encourages women to tune into silhouettes that feel natural and intuitive on their bodies.
S — Select With Intention
The method emphasises dressing for real life: the school run, the studio, the meeting, the dinner or wedding. Pieces are chosen to support a woman’s rhythm, not complicate it.
E — Embody Your Superpower
Women are invited to wear the mood that empowers them — the essence of intentional dressing. It is about committing to your energy, owning your presence, and growing into your own growth.
A New Language of Style
Holland Street believes every woman has a personal style language — she simply needs the words for it. The SENSE Method™ offers a sensory, emotional approach to dressing, using the brand’s existing emotional worlds as a guide.
This campaign invites women to choose three words from Holland Street’s emotional vocabulary. These words become a simple, intuitive way to dress with feeling — a shift away from trends and rules, and toward emotional clarity.
The SENSE Method™ extends beyond clothing — it applies just as naturally to the spaces women create around them. The same emotional clarity used to choose a Soulful outfit or a Cocooned silhouette can guide the atmosphere of a room. When you start with a feeling — calm, soft, wrapped, fresh, bold — your interior choices shift. A Hushed mood becomes pale tones, soft light and clean lines; a Romantic mood leans into drape, texture and gentle colour; an Energising mood invites expressive prints and joyful accents. Just like dressing, interiors become a form of emotional intention: choosing how you want to feel in a space, and letting that guide the textures, tones and shapes you bring into your home. The SENSE Method™ reminds us that style is not only worn — it is lived.
HOW THE CAMPAIGN WORKS
1. Women choose their three words
They select the three words that express the mood they want to feel that day or for a specific event, or how they want to feel in room they are creating.
2. Holland Street shows how to dress or style those words
Each combination leads to a styling suggestion from the brand’s curated collections for fashion and interiors.
3. The community shares their words
The campaign becomes a conversation — a sensory, emotional dialogue across the Holland Street community.
