ANNA LED

The ANNA LED fashion brand is indispensable for modern and elegant women who value comfort and chic, natural fabrics, and unusual details. The distinctive style of the brand harmoniously intertwines both – traditions and ethnic elements of the Baltic region, as well as contemporary fashion trends and high-tech fabrics. The designs of the brand blend traditions and nature of Northern Europe that are reflected in combinations of different textures, soft shapes, toned-down colours with bright accents, and last, but not the least – Baltic chic. The brand was established by Anna Ledskalnina in 2000, and it has developed into a true benchmark of contemporary Latvian fashion design. She graduated the Academy of Technology and Design in St. Petersburg, as well as studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Riga. Also mastered the art of tailoring with famous craftsmen in private Riga ateliers. In 2000 she launched her first handmade collection which was created in the style of Baltic Folk using homespun materials – linen, rustic wool, and authentic handmade lace. And shortly in 2003, she received the Grand Prix for the best debut at the competition of young designers from the Paris Pret-a-porter federation (France). An important milestone in her upbringing, as a tailor of distinct individuality, was practice in London in the Vivienne Westwood Studio „Royal Academy Of Art” in 2005. Currently, designer Anna Ledskalnina continues to create new, seasonal collections (two-three collections a year), which are presented on the ANNA LED official website (annaled.com) and in various multimedia, and also participates in "Riga Fashion Week" fashion weeks. Studio ANNA LED is an independent fashion brand, operating as a "showroom", shop, and atelier in the center of Riga, in Bergs Bazaar. Only natural fabrics and unparalleled creativity from Anna Ledskalnina are still used in the creation of clothes.
