Irina Akulina

As the leader, designer, and visionary behind the model-theater studio "Shag Navstrechu," Irina underwent training at the "Brand Factory" digital agency. She specializes in creating modern Russian-style women's clothing for both children and adults, with a keen understanding of what it takes to make one feel like a true princess. Her designs often incorporate black color into children's outfits, as well as utilize layering and natural shades. Irina is skilled at crafting unique capsule collections and avoids making duplicates. In the studio, children aged 5 to 14 not only learn modeling and showcasing clothing but also study acting skills. She has actively participated in the project "Cyber Atelier and Creative Industries of Primorye," and has received multiple awards in the International Fashion Contest of Young Designers "Pygmalion". In 2016, Irina's collection "Begushchaia Po Volnam" ("Running on Waves") earned her recognition as the best in the "Profi" category.
