Who is Times?
The name “Times” is my creative pseudonym and brand identity. I came up with it during my studies as a name that’s internationally recognizable and easy to pronounce, connected to my first name, Tijme. It also reflects my passion for vintage watches and my fascination with time, craftsmanship, and history — all themes that influence my approach to design.
My design style focuses on storytelling and innovation. I draw inspiration from designers like Teddy Santis of Aimé Leon Dore and Massimo Osti of Stone Island and CP Company. I like to blend classic, iconic garments with modern sensibilities, combining elements of traditional workwear and tailoring to create pieces that meet contemporary needs while keeping a subtle vintage vibe.
I’m Tijme “Times” Bransen, a Amsterdam based fashion and graphic designer. Currently I work as a Junior Menswear and Womenswear Designer at ØLÅF, and was Junior Menswear Designer at DENHAM the Jeanmaker from 2023 until 2025.
I earned my degree in Graphic Design, specializing in Art & Design, from Grafisch Lyceum Utrecht in 2023.
During my time at DENHAM I worked closely with Design Director Salvatore Aloisi and founder Jason Denham. I contributed to collections from Fall 2023 through Winter 2025, and played a role in developing the official TeamNL clothing line for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.
Since April 2025, I’ve been working at ØLÅF as a Junior Menswear and Womenswear Designer.
