Heidemarie Jiline "Jil" Sander  born 27 November 1943 in Wesselburen, Germany; is a minimalist German fashion designer and the founder of the Jil Sander fashion house.

Sander founded her own fashion house Jil Sander in Rotherbaum, Hamburg, Germany in 1968 with her mother's sewing machine.[2] Her first collection was for Hoechst using the trevira fabric. In 1973, she launched a collection under her own brand name.

She overcame a poorly received first Jil Sander Paris collection shown at the Plaza Athénée in 1975 and listed her company on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange at the end of the 1980s. She subsequently flourished through the 1980s and 1990s, and soon achieved an international following, thanks to retailers like Linda Dresner, who for a time had a Sander boutique on New York's Park Avenue, and Joan Burstein of Browns in London. In 1995, the Jil Sander group reported $114 million in sales.
