Built for HER
In this blog post, I reflect on the evolution of women’s workwear in the trades, from the early days when women were forced to wear ill-fitting, gender-neutral gear to the recent wave of brands creating workwear designed specifically for women. I share how, as more women entered the trades, the demand for better-fitting, more functional workwear grew. Konstellation is proud to be part of this movement, creating workwear that blends durability, comfort, and a perfect fit for women in the trades. As the industry continues to evolve, the future of workwear for tradeswomen looks brighter than ever, and I invite readers to stay connected through our Instagram and TikTok for updates and empowering stories.
Understanding ASTM F1506 and NFPA 70E
ASTM F1506 and NFPA 70E are essential safety standards for flame-resistant (FR) workwear in high-risk electrical environments. ASTM F1506 ensures clothing is flame-resistant and offers protection from electrical hazards, while NFPA 70E outlines safe working practices and PPE requirements. Together, these standards ensure workers are protected from serious injuries while working in dangerous conditions. At Konstellation, our workwear meets these rigorous standards, providing safety, comfort, and durability—so you can focus on the job, not the risk.
Welcome to Konstellation
At Konstellation, we believe women in the trades deserve workwear that combines comfort, style, and function. Founded by Kayla, a seasoned engineer with a passion for fashion, our brand was born from a vision to create high-quality, durable clothing that celebrates femininity while meeting the rigorous demands of the job. After years of noticing the lack of stylish, well-fitting workwear for women, Kayla set out to bridge the gap—offering work clothes that empower women to feel confident and capable, no matter the task at hand.
Our mission is simple: to inspire women in the trades to break boundaries, defy stereotypes, and express their unique style while thriving in their careers.
Join us as we redefine what workwear can be—because women in the trades can, and should, have it all.
