“I am a storyteller expressing myself through fashion. My inspirations are a mix of images, colors, experiences and aesthetics of my past & present, West & East. My hometown Warszawa, Sicily, Rome and Paris – places I grew up with. My brand is much more than apparel & accessories. I pay tribute to the charismatic, nonchalant & blooming femininity. Elegant modesty & best quality I find most sustainable”
Ania Kuczyńska is one of Poland’s most acclaimed fashion designers, with her signature bags and creations instantly recognizable on the streets. Her designs capture the essence of Warsaw, expressing the concept of Soft Power. For over 20 years, she has made a mark with her decorative minimalist yet intricate creations, each piece distinguished by its unique character and meticulous attention to detail. Kuczyńska’s style is a fusion of chic European aesthetics with a distinctly Polish sensibility. Her seasonless approach to clothing reflects a concern for the current state of the environment. Black, a color deeply embedded in her brand’s DNA since its inception, plays a central role in her work. Her designs embody the modern woman who engages in a dialogue with both tradition and elegance. They stand as a tribute to powerful yet delicate femininity.
Wallpaper Magazine called the designer the “Pole Star”and described her as “the brightest beacon in the Polish design firmament”.
