Kristina Pavlova is the best young designer under 30

Kristina Pavlova, an expert of the multi-channel b2b platform "Fashion magazin", took I place in the nomination "young designers under 30" at the competition of the Union of Designers of Moscow.

For the first time, a competition for prizes The Union of Designers of Moscow was held in July 2015 as part of the Fashion Linen and Knitwear fair, which was held at the Tishinsky TVC, with the support of the Fashion Industry Support and Development Center. The competition is traditionally attended not only by graduates of Moscow universities and colleges, but also by guests from the regions, near and far abroad.This year's competition isThe Union of Designers of Moscow was held on July 4–7 at the ART DECO Museum.

The competition was held in 2 stages: On July 5, the first qualifying round, on July 7, a gala screening and the final fashion show, after which the winners were selected by a jury vote.

Kristina Pavlova took part in the competition with a collection of clothes for pregnant and nursing mothers, as she considers this area of fashion important and promising. Girls spend part of their lives either pregnant or nursing, and this should not mean that they completely fall out of fashion for a long enough time. The designer is convinced that motherhood should not prevent a woman from feeling attractive, sexy and at the same time not experiencing stress while feeding in public places. That is why Kristina has created three author's models for breastfeeding, which help her mother feel truly free and active.

1. Free Mom ("free mom")

An innovative model with a built-in flounce cape and an additional elastic band under the cape. The cape provides completely hidden breastfeeding in public places, covering not only the mother's breast, but also the baby. The dress is called "Free Mom" just because mom is completely free from the need to buy and wear additional devices for feeding (apron, scarf, etc.instead, she can just put on this dress and not take anything else with her, because everything is already "on".

2. Hot Mom ("hot mom")

An author's dress with long contrasting transformer belts and a built-in inner top that closes with a decorative copper hook with rhinestones. For comfortable and hidden feeding, it is only necessary to push one of the contrasting shelves down and attach the baby. At the same time, the chest remains covered with an inner top. The design of the inner top allows you to turn it into a push-up, and shelves and belts can be made in various contrasting or gradient shades. Long contrasting belts allow you to modify the design, swapping the upper and lower belts, as well as varying the freedom of fit.

3. Embrace ("embrace")

An innovative utility model of clothing for breastfeeding in public places with a built-in flip cape. In normal mode, the cape is on the back and performs a decorative function, and in feeding mode it is thrown over the head forward to cover not only the mother's breast, but also the baby, which is extremely convenient when you need the baby not to be distracted by flying objects. The model is also unique by the presence of a smell on each breast, which allows you to feed without a cape. In addition, it solves the problem of fitting various breast shapes to a certain secret for feeding, since the smell is a universal solution for any breast shape. In addition, the model also implies the possibility of refinement in order to create a push-up effect.

Preparation for the competition took the designer about a month. According to Kristina, with a 2.5-year-old baby, you manage to perform miracles of time management.

Since February of this year, Kristina Pavlova herself has been a member of the Union of Designers of Moscow, and since April she has also been a member of the International Public Association "Union of Designers".
