Ekaterina Kukhareva, the Ukrainian-born designer graduated with a BA in textiles and knitwear from Central St Martin’s before cutting her teeth at major forces like Temperley London. Her incredible creations are best seen in person. Harnessing the full colour spectrum and playing off her own eclectic knowledge of yarn behaviour and technical pattern-cutting, each piece reflects Ekaterina’s vast skillset and ability to think outside the box. Dramatic shapes are created by voluminous sleeves and contour-hugging lines. Expect exquisite tailoring in everything from her summery, chuck-on shirt-dresses to her floor-skimming, all-lace ‘Thea’ gown - the perfect showstopper for a big-city black-tie event. The creations of Kukhareva are so versatile they can be worn from the ball to the boardroom, lounging on holiday, to impress over a business lunch or just every day cruising around the city.
