Supayana is a clothing line run by New York designer Yana Gorbulsky.
She was born in Moscow and now lives in Brooklyn, NY. Yana first found her passion for sewing as a little girl,
sewing dresses for her dolls and stuffed animals. She eventually started making clothing for herself, and then finally
for others girls who shared an interest in unique clothing.
In 2002, Supayana was born. Yana started selling her garments on eBay - modest pieces consisting mostly of simple reconstructed t-shirts. Keeping one eye on street fashion, Yana continued to experiment with her designs, moving further away from simple t-shirt reconstruction to crafting versatile garments from
scratch. The response to her creative efforts were tremendous.
Supayana designs do not subscribe
to any particular subculture, style, or fad. Yana finds inspiration from both runway ready-to-wear and street
fashion; both vintage and modern trends; and most importantly, the maniacal desire to transfigure everything
she touches into something cute. Supayana designs incorporate special attention to vintage buttons, lace details,
and unique fabric prints - altogether bringing one-of-a-kind touches to every piece. Some ruffles here, a cluster
of buttons there, Supayana designs are both daring and yet so completely wearable.
