About me

Hello! I am Daria, Vogue Italia Talent selected fashion designer and illustrator, The Best in Industry - Fida Awards Selected Artist 2023 and one of two founders of February First and Tech Packs EU. I have worked for brands like Gucci, Haider Ackermann, Marc Jacobs and A.W.A.K.E. Our designs were worn by Johnny Weir and Lady Gaga and became part of Vogue Italia and Blanc Magazine editorials. We help creative businesses with fashion collections development from concept ideas till first samples. My main speciality is sustainable high-end fashion designs (menswear, activewear, womenswear, kidswear, lingerie, accessories, jewellery, packaging and textile). I genuinely believe that the most sustainable thing is a high quality product and do not work with fast fashion projects, non ethical manufacturers and toxic textiles. I'm passionate about using my high fashion expertise for meaningful change through social projects, creating clothes for individuals with diverse needs, create designs that empower and include everyone. How to tech pack sustainably? 1.We don't use templates and draw every garment from scratch. This world doesn't need any more copies. Let's create something precious. 2. Sustainable textiles and finishings is our main speciality. 3. Our tech packs contain information about how the garments can be recycled in future. 4. Today textile choice is not only about fabric composition details but also about high performance knitting/weaving. We could help with this. 5. We don't use "reference garments". 3d illustrations allow to reduce sampling time without overconsumption and disrespect to other designers' intellectual property.
