About me
I am a London based fashion studio founder and a brand owner. My mission is to contribute to the modern fashion industry development, taking the consumers desires and preserving our environment as a first priority. While working for Tata Naka, House of Holland, Alexander McQueen and Tateossian brands, I had a chance to work as studio and production manager, graphic designer, print and textile designer, and embroidery assistant. Here I got a lot of insights into the fashion industry and discovered a manufacturing market niche in the UK. Back then I it found it challenging to communicate the creative ideas designers had to the existing manufacturers. This is how I found a sampling studio – Fabrika in 2016. I had a vision on how to build transparent relationship with young creative fashion brands, as I knew exactly what they want and could communicate with them on the common language of fashion. Transferring and implementing their ideas into the products stays as a mission of Fabrika till this day. Today together with a team of 13, we create garments for Richard Quinn, Phoebe English, Matty Bovan and several smaller labels and start-ups. In my managing director role, I deal with all business operations, including team leadership, client management, accounting, marketing & campaigns, prints development, garment design and construction. At the beginning of 2021 I have started e-com retail expansion of my business & founded new brand. Vavi studio - is a fashion brand, made locally, using responsibly sourced materials, specialising on hand illustrated fabrics designed by me. As a young business leader I see myself responsible for the contribution to a sustainable future. I aspire to make Vavi an international sustainable brand, to invent new models of running the business and rethink brand identity. Fashion world is developing fast, I make sure to keep up the pace by constant personal and professional development. I am open to the experience exchange with other brands and manufacturers.
