MUNIQUE brand of hand-made corsets and jackets

The focus today is on the young Russian brand Munique, founded in 2020 by Nikitina Maria. The name of the brand combines the French word "unique" (unique) + the letter "M", which is very symbolic for the founder of the brand Maria. In addition, a very important point was that the name was consonant with the German city of München (Munich). Germany in turn is considered one of the recognized centers of fashion with boutiques of exclusive brands, notable local brands, young designers’ unusual shops, and, of course, a large number of creative young people.

"Our brand also belongs to this young and progressive generation. We are actively developing on many social networks (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook) and keep up with the times, supporting everything new". The main idea and concept of the brand is "urban couture", which perfectly reflects the needs of modern urban residents.

Maria says: "Most of the time the idea of creating a brand comes in a moment when there is nothing that could face your expectations. My story is just like that. I wanted a corset, but I never could find the one, that meets my requirements. Since I have been in the fashion industry for about 10 years, I decided to create corsets myself - quickly, efficiently, and at an adequate price. Moreover, it will fit perfectly as it will be sewed according to individual measurements".

The relevance of corsets was returned by Saint Laurent, Chalayan, Dion Lee, Sacai, Etro, Olivier Theyskens. It became clear that a corset can easily fit into a basic wardrobe, it can be part of your everyday look, for example, with jeans or wide trousers. Feminine lace corsets can be mixed with oversized clothes, like from a man's shoulder, and rough corsets - with light chiffon or silk dresses.

It is especially important that in 2021 corsets have become comfortable and practical. Munique products use premium materials:

- corset mesh produced by lauma lingerie;
- steel bones from Greek production medical steel;
- stainless eyelets.
