Past winner of the Mittelmodal Prize, the Smirnoff International Competition, the Nadejda Lamanova Prize of the Russian Federation and Supima’s inaugural Competition for Emerging Designers, Katya developed her techniques in couture design while in Paris, Rome and her hometown of Moscow.

The introduction of Katya's couture bridal collection allows for her edgy and dynamic forms to be joined with the traditional concept of bridal wear; while still expressing her signature BEAUTIFUL GARBAGE concept: the embedding of fabrics such as gauzes, chiffons and silks with an assortment of materials including torn paper, bits of fur, pieces of aluminum, strands of cotton, feathers and fringes.

The debut of her new namesake bridal collection was this held during New  York's Spring/Summer 2011 Fashion Week.
