NIKEI STORY
I walked the Italian fashion runways wearing the creations of many Italian designers.
It was an experimental period that shaped me into who I am today.
I learned and came back with a lot of ideas from Milan, to use
in my career!
I come from a family with a strong spiritual background and I learned to appreciate life more, my roots and pretty much, all that is beautiful.
I’ve discovered that I love to take risks, to throw myself into the unknown and I’ve become much more confident about my strengths. This is how I decided to open a private workshop in Constanta.
Elegance and refinement – our brand new tradition!
Nikei brand makes me learn everything as I go along, adapt to the demands and take challenges as they come. Even though I had to go through ‘you don’t always get it right the first time’ experience, I didn’t give up but learned to be patient, communicate more and create a story for each outfit.
ALINA NIKEI
“When passion is like play, stitching becomes a true art.”
I started with my first skirt collection in spring 2017 which was a huge success! Orders followed and with them a slight fear that I wouldn’t be able to handle everything as I wanted. But I have learned to devote myself to each order and create the products with passion!
Through the Nike brand, I want to pass on our traditions, inherited from our parents and grandparents, but to do that I had to re-adapt them and give them a fresh look.
I love tradition and the mysterious stories I find in every curiosity. I love discovering wonderful things of sentimental value. I chose to reinterpret traditional clothing, to give it a new modern and casual touch, because I simply love the beauty and energy of vintage things.
I strongly believe that it is important not to lose the precious roots that teach us how to love and appreciate all that is beautiful.
The textiles we use are carefully chosen by me: silk, voile, satin, tulle, organza, velvet, cotton, taffeta, brocade, jacquard, fabric, lace, embroidery, cultured pearls – I put my passion in everything, because I love what I do!
