Baiba Ladiga
Riga, Latvia
A Latvian designer whose output spans bias-cut silk slip dresses and patented heatless hair curlers - a range that sounds scattered until you clock the thread: everything is handmade in Riga from certified, non-toxic materials. The silk work is serious, running to 22-23 momme Mulberry with OEKO-TEX certification, and the garment cuts favour fluid, one-size geometry over conventional sizing. Minimalist instincts, luxury materials, and a very specific idea of what daily softness should feel like.
