Also sharing Asian and Italian roots; Eliya’s background in the fashion world traces back to her adolescence – creating her first dress at the tender age of 12. Henceforth she spent her youth creating and collaborating with some of Russia’s most recognizable figures from Olga Buzova, Victoria Bonya, and Anastasia Kvitko, to one of Europes biggest cult-girl groups Tatu. Her quick ascent to the heights of russian fashion earned her her first job as fashion-director of Russian label C&C Milano at 24. In the following years she established herself as a stable in the Fashion Week Calendar, with exhibitions in Moscow, Miami, LA, Milan and in 2017, was the first Russian designer to display her collection at New York Fashion Week.
Earning her MBA in China, Eliya’s education, experience, and taste for quality fabrics lead her to working with some of the worlds top manufactures in Russia, Turkey, China, Brazil and Italy.
