Meet The Designer

“I advocate for quality and longevity in the garments I create. Drawing inspiration from my personal wardrobe, I prioritise purchasing fewer, timeless pieces and enjoy mixing and matching them for years.”

Redress Design Award Collection

Olha’s Redress Design Award collection, ‘Armour Suit’, draws inspiration from the protection offered both by traditional armour throughout history, and by corporate suits. The collection upcycles natural materials like cotton sampling yardage and wool end-of-rolls, with wooden buttons for trims, to create timeless and recyclable pieces. The classic styles and colours, plus the high-quality fabrics, encourage longevity with the tailor-made garments designed to be worn often and presenting a clean appearance.
