Nikita's Story
Before the first sample was cut.
"The world I felt I belonged to didn't exist, so I created it."
Building NIKITA
NIKITA was built in pieces — a leather, a silhouette, a sentence written in a notebook on a long flight. The house grew slowly, and on purpose. Every decision was a refusal of something cheaper, faster, or easier. I wanted to make garments that would still feel like mine in ten years, and like a stranger's gift the first time they were worn. Timeless without being safe. Personal without being inflated.
Cut, fitted, re-fitted
Each pattern is drawn by hand, then re-drawn against the body. The first hundred fittings teach you what the next thousand will refine.
Instinctive · Free · Imaginative
The house exists for those who dress instinctively, move freely, and live imaginatively. Three words that came before the first pattern and have outlived every season since.
