Welcome! I’m happy to see you on my website! Below you will find some information about myself and my style.
How it all began
Since my early childhood, I have been drawing and sewing. First, I fitted clothes for my dolls, but by the end of school I had switched to fitting clothes for my friends. During fashion school, I began designing and sewing wedding dresses which kept me happily occupied for years.
Founding J. Zukur
That is, until my passion for art and sewing combined and I started printing my drawings on T-shirts. As usual, I tried it first on my friends who loved it and encouraged me to put them up for sale. The girls who got T-shirts from me then also wanted skirts and trousers, so I began designing and producing a more diverse range of clothes. Soon after, I fulfilled a long-held dream of mine and opened a store in Bordighera, Italy.
The step into the online world
For a long time, I postponed the creation of my website because I highly value personal interactions. Seeing my customers trying on my clothes and leaving the store happily after having found an item that sparks joy always made my day brighter. But recent events in the world have encouraged me to join the ranks of Internet merchants. So here is my website where you can see what I do, choose and buy somethings nice and beautiful for yourself or your friends.
My fashion style
In my designs, I prefer simplicity with zest and natural fabrics. I like to mix different styles and textures. Personally, I love it when a piece is versatile and can be worn everywhere instead of only once in 5 years for a special occasion. My interest in art inspires my designs and I thrive to make each piece unique. Where I can, I add details by hand. Other than that, I aim to source as locally as possible, so I choose only the highest quality fabrics from Italy and my ready-to-wear items are all manufactured in Europe. This is also why all items are released in very limited quantities (from 1 to 12 pieces).
Love,
Evgenia
