Men suits collection "Man, Classic and Silk"
A brief look into my
past
The men suits collection is one of my first
major projects created during my studies at Riga Technical University (RTU). It
was part of my bachelor's thesis and was featured in the 2005 “Ready to Wear”
fashion show.
The clothing collection was made of five
different silhouette jackets and trousers made of natural silk fabric.
It was a time when patterns were drawn by hand, using a pencil, ruler and paper. At that time, I dreamed about how much time
could be saved if the design process could be done by computer software.
Many years have passed and today my dreams have
come true. I work with Lectra, CAD/CAM software, and the work can now be done
much more efficiently and at scale.
Womenswear collection "Woman in Black"
The idea of the
collection - How to make a woman's life easier
As a woman, I know that one of the first things most women think every morning, when they wake up, is what do I wear today?
I created this collection with the image of a
businesswoman in mind. It consists of ten garments:
- Little Black Dress
- Classic Pencil Skirt
- Tulle Skirt
- Top
- White Shirt Style Blouse
- Black Lace Blouse
- Red/Black Chiffon Blouse
- Trousers
- Black Jacket
- Black Evening Dress
If your wardrobe has these essential items, you can have a different look every day just by combining them in various ways. However, there are some best practices when designing your wardrobe. You will read about it on my blog soon.

Tweed jacket
This bespoke jacket was made by taking into account the needs of the client and the
individual characteristics of the body. It is made from high-quality wool and
cashmere fabric from Holland & Sherry, one of the longstanding fabric
companies in the UK.
Tailcoat alteration
A customer came to me with a tailcoat from an online store. When the
customer received the tailcoat, unfortunately, it did not fit. There was no time
as the wedding was around the corner, but we found a
way to quickly alter the tailcoat and it was ready in time for the wedding. The
customer was extremely pleased and so was I.
Sofa's cover
One day a client came to me looking to order a new cover for her sofa. I was very happy to help because I saw how sentimental the sofa was for her. It is much easier to buy a new sofa than to give a second chance to the old one, but it is often worth it.
