"12&13" - the name of the womenwear capsule collection was taken from the numbers of the 12th and 13th districts of Paris. When creating this collection, the designer was inspired by the architecture and atmosphere of these areas.
In 2012, Antonina had an internship at the Albatross Studio in Paris. Paris made a huge impression on the designer, especially the 12th and 13th arrondissements, where you can see a lot of beautiful architecture in the style of "brutalism".

When choosing fabrics for the collection, the designer was guided by textures similar to textures from film photographs of Paris. (St. Petersburg, Russia, 2012)
