Stitching through times and places
Hello!! Welcome to my fashion boutique.
I moved to the USA from Europe where I spent many years working with stitches - knitting ladies' high fashion garments, shawls, and unique accessories for metropolitan luxury retail boutique stores.
My grandma showed me how to knit. She was my only teacher, since that time I am selftaught.
Later, as a designer for a manufacturing company that supplied knitted fashions to retail stores, I gained valuable experience in the interesting variety of garment construction alternatives.
That experience gave me confidence and a reputation as a knitting expert, and I landed an exciting job that required me to travel throughout Europe and Asia as an installer and instructor for the manufacturer of PASSAP knitting machines. I worked as an instructor training people to use the company-produced knitting machines.
I gained a lot of inspirations from my trips to exotic places, and I learned a lot about different customs and lifestyles, and how wonderful is the variety of high fashion and traditions in the world.
Now I live in an historic area of the USA on the eastern coast, where I am happily married to my very supportive American husband.
I enjoy creating beautiful, durable and unique quality garments and accessories for ladies of refinement and taste. I hope you will enjoy wearing them.
My designs come from my original ideas without any guidence from books, magazins or patterns. Each and everyone of them is original and unique.
I am seriously conscientious about the construction of each items, whether an accessory or a garment fashioned to flatter your body.
I handcraft each and every piece myself and am intimately involved with each garment -- no assembly lines or piecework here. The whole garment from start to finish, the selection of fibers and - ultimately - the design are from me.
I am open to communication and will be happy to answer all your question.
