Studio/Personal Assistant

Ingrid Kraftchenko (Kraftchenko Limited)

Dollhouse ~ The Body of Architecture©

A subversive ready to wear British fashion label, with a focus on womenswear, radical restraint and post-utilitarian articles for the rebellious and disobedient modern woman. She has gained critical acclaim for her avant-garde designs and for challenging modern luxury and for provocative predisposition towards violence, body-politics, shelter, control and surveillance tactics.

Kraftchenko continues to work with pre-existing and sustainable technical materials in innovative construction processes. By re-appropriating fetish, military and medical aesthetics, Kraftchenko draws links between control, submission, resistance and community. Challenging the notions of functionality of deconstructive continuous skins in architecture and fashion in industrial collapse.

Designed in London, artfully crafted and manufactured in London E1 as a form of rebellion against mass produced fashion, with a paradoxical aesthetic of punk ruin and decay.

Ingrid Kraftchenko Dollhouse is a radical collaborative studio spanning multi-disciplinary works operating between Architecture and Fashion design, Film, the Visual and Performing Arts. The firm's architectural and fashion design work frequently addresses issues of bodily enclosure and shelter at scales ranging 1:1 - 1:3000. Their work has been widely exhibited in the UK, Europe, USA and Asia.
