Katsianova Yuliia Vladimirovna \u2013 bringing stylish Ukrainian aesthetic to Kuwait<\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Fashion House VoleeYu was created in 2014 by Katsianova Yuliia in Kiev, Ukraine. A successful architect and designer with 16 years of experience, Katsianova has created a unique fashion house of her own. The fashion house has combined all the directions in the world of design, which include the design of clothes, accessories, interiors and designer expensive gifts.<\/p>\n

VoleeYu is a powerful brand that quickly walks around the world and wins the hearts of millions of fans.<\/p>\n

Please tell us about yourself and your work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My name is Katsianova Yuliia Vladimirovna, I am the owner of the international brand VoleeYu, a designer and architect with 16 years of experience, a TV presenter on Ukrainian television channels of the country, an artist, author and creator of unique accessories that are unique in the world.<\/p>\n

Fashion House VoleeYu – was created in Ukraine, an authentic fashionable Ukrainian brand with its own special philosophy based on the centuries-old cultural heritage of mankind. VoleeYu is a combination of aristocratic fashion, designer accessories, expensive tableware design and royal interiors in one brand. VoleeYu is the style of new aristocrats and a whole philosophy of life!<\/p>\n

What is the most distinctive feature of your products?<\/strong><\/p>\n

First of all, as an architect, I see the creation of products and accessories from a different angle. Characteristic recognition VoleeYu – the author’s diverse and unique embroidery, it is this feature of decorating fabrics and genuine leather that has become recognizable all over the world. Embroidered birds, people, architectural masterpieces, elements of the Baroque style, patterns from the walls of Versailles and much more, comes to life on fabrics in the collections of the VoleeYu brand.<\/p>\n

What led you to the eastern countries?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have long dreamed of getting to the East and creating beautiful elegant dresses and abaya for eastern women. My style is not like anyone else, so when my products were first shown in Dubai, they immediately found their customers. When creating collections for the East, I carefully studied and delved into the ornaments and traditions of the East. I created Middle Eastern dresses, but as a European designer, with my characteristic style and most importantly, embroideries, which is what my brand is famous for, were made in combining French ornaments from Versailles with Middle Eastern ornaments from the architecture. Such things carry in themselves, not only a very beautiful aesthetic component, but also an educational idea, because this is the union of two cultures.<\/p>\n

What did you create especially for women of the East?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I can brag that I am probably the first Ukrainian designer to be hosted in the house of Arab sheiks. I am invited as a full-fledged member of the family in an Arab home, and this is important, because I see the needs and desires of Middle Eastern women, I see their traditions and communication, this gives me a unique opportunity to create original products for individual orders. Now I was invited to an Arabian wedding, from which I just flew from Abu Dhabi, I saw a real Middle Eastern feast, but most importantly, a large number of women were present at the wedding, to whom I created designer dresses and they were not like one another, but this important!<\/p>\n

What brought you to Kuwait?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, this is an interesting story! My visit to Kuwait was planned long ago with the help of our wonderful Ambassador of Ukraine to Kuwait, Alexander Balanutsa. I am proud that we have such wonderful state diplomats who contribute and help expand cultural ties and establish joint work with the state of Kuwait. Alexander Balanutsa introduced me to Bushra Alaidan, a famous Kuwaiti designer of wedding dresses, a meeting that took place in Dubai. And today, I brought a chic designer embroidered Middle Eastern dress for the bride on the second day of the wedding. Unfortunately, I could not attend the wedding, because I was invited to another wedding in Dubai.<\/p>\n

What are your plans in Kuwait?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI have high hopes for a long-term cooperation in Kuwait, and I try very hard and make efforts to make my dresses and style like the women of Riyadh.\u201d We also have an agreement with designer Bushra Alaidan that my dresses are perfectly suited to the style of Middle Eastern women, especially on the second day of the wedding, so my products will be placed in the salon of wedding dresses that can be seen by everyone. I really hope that my products will be in demand in Kuwait.<\/p>\n
