VIGO: arts&crafts

From ancient cave paintings to modern textiles,
ornament transcends geographical boundaries and linquistic barries, serving as a visual laguage that communicates to our shared humanity.

These crafts, deeply rooted in the nomadic cultures of Central Asia, have not only remained but also perfected the techniques of felt-making and hand-woven rugs.

In 2012, this specific style of rug weaving was recognized by UNESCO as a cultural heritage.

Since 1999, Olga has worked as a designer for various local brands, and in 2006 she founded her own fashion house Olga Boyarinova. Under this name, she created costumes for theater and stage looks for Russian and foreign artists. In 2013, she became particularly interested in the topic of sustainable development in fashion and six years later launched the Boyari brand as a result of long-term research. She was particularly inspired by the material "apple skin" (yes, it actually contains apple peel), as well as the highly eco-friendly fabrics Tencel and Hollofiber. In Boyari, she sews everything from dresses and down jackets to bags.
