Yuli Chulkova

Hello!
My name is Yulia Chulkova and I am fashion Designer from St.Petersburg, Russia.
My Diploma project is my first collection.
The title of my Diploma is „Biomechanics“. It’s a discourse on human organism and mechanics. I took a sheet of paper, a pencil and rendered the surface of human body juxtaposed with the elements of its constitution: carcass (skeleton), ribs, lungs and spine. You can notice not only fragments of the human origin but also of birds and fish. Emphasizing gender markers of the female body, I also tasked myself with entertaining the spectator’s fantasy, adding a slight element of exposure. Simple construction and fabrics with high wearability were one of my main points.

This year I have been working on a Collection of Stockings and tights for spring-summer 2014 by Yuli Chulkova.

This collection has a sexy and strict character combined with a perky playfulness. It is modern classical stockings made out of durable micronet which are decorated together with skirts and bustiers with hand-embroidery of beads, feathers and rough leather. The combination of minimalistic silhouettes and embroidered details will make an elegant evening look.
