- Bring or wear an outfit you actually use at home; it makes it easier to choose pieces and layers that will work with your existing wardrobe.
- If you are unsure about Danish sizes, ask Gitte or Simone for help in the fitting room; they are used to translating between different size systems.

A welcoming fashion nook on Algade
Hos Simone sits on Algade, Roskilde’s central shopping street, surrounded by cobblestones, historic facades and the gentle buzz of café life. Step through the door and you move from the flow of the pedestrian street into an intimate, human‑scale boutique. Racks are arranged so you can move slowly and browse, with enough space to see the clothing without feeling overwhelmed by endless rails. Light from the shopfront windows softens the interior, picking out textures in knits, denim and soft blouses. Instead of a glossy, high‑concept showroom, the atmosphere is deliberately homely: you are meant to touch fabrics, hold pieces up to the light and take your time in the fitting room.Family story behind the hangers
The shop is run day to day by a mother, Gitte, and her daughter Simone, whose name the boutique carries. Their presence gives the store the feel of a neighbourhood living room as much as a place of commerce. You will often find one of them arranging a new delivery, chatting with a regular or offering suggestions based on what actually suits a person rather than what is trendy that week. That family backbone also shows in the way the assortment is chosen. Instead of chasing luxury labels, the focus is on clothing they would wear themselves: practical pieces with a bit of edge, items that work for both school runs and evenings out, and sizes and fits that cater to a wide range of women rather than a single ideal.Everyday Scandinavian style with a twist
On the racks you can expect a Scandinavian mix of neutral tones, soft knits, jeans, shirts and easy dresses, often punctuated by one patterned blouse, a bold colour or a statement jacket. The style leans casual and wearable rather than formal, but there is usually something that can lift an outfit for a dinner or a night at a wine bar. Quality at reasonable prices is a guiding idea here. Instead of minimalist designer showpieces, you will find affordable fashion where fabric, fit and comfort are still taken seriously. Accessories and small items make it easy to update a look without rebuilding your entire wardrobe.Shopping experience at a relaxed pace
Visiting Hos Simone is as much about the atmosphere as the garments. Music plays softly in the background, conversations are unhurried and there is time to try combinations you might not have picked on your own. You can browse independently or ask for direct input on cuts, colours and layering; both approaches are welcomed equally. Fitting rooms are central to the experience, with honest feedback offered if asked. The aim is that you walk out feeling comfortable in what you have chosen, not pressured into a quick purchase. It is the kind of place where you can pop in briefly between other sights in Roskilde, or stay longer, building a small capsule wardrobe piece by piece.Part of Roskilde’s local fabric
Beyond the door, Roskilde’s cathedral spires and museums are only a short stroll away, but Hos Simone anchors a more everyday side of the city: the independent shops that keep Algade lively. Locals stop by on their way through town, and the rhythm of deliveries, seasonal displays and changing window mannequins marks the passing of the year. Dropping in here gives a glimpse of contemporary Danish small‑town life, where fashion is woven into daily routines rather than reserved for special occasions. Whether you leave with a new knit or simply an idea of how people in Roskilde actually dress, the boutique offers a personal counterpoint to larger chain stores and a warm pause in the middle of your city walk.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
