I am a fashion designer originally from Ukraine and now based in London. My work is shaped by concept, storytelling and a strong sense of visual identity. I see fashion as more than clothing and use it to create a complete world around an idea, where every detail supports the mood and meaning of the project. My graduate collection, Archive of Remains, explores memory, preservation and the traces left by time. Inspired by museum archives, natural specimens, preserved wings and archaeological fragments, the collection translates these references into sculptural silhouettes, draping and contrasting materials. It reflects a balance between fragility and strength, movement and stillness. Key strengths include concept development, visual research, draping and material experimentation. I am able to take an initial reference and develop it into a clear design direction, connecting the garments with the wider identity of a collection. Creative direction plays an important role in my process, allowing me to build projects with a strong atmosphere, clear purpose and recognisable visual language.
