Hello Dolly

Tatyana Merenyuk’s designs are, as the name of her line reddoll suggests, reminiscent of the miniature petticoats and frilly doll dresses of her girlhood.

But while she wants to,”make all ladies look like beautiful dolls,” her first concern is making clothes that are flattering, wearable, and comfortable.

Tatyana’s fascination with fashion began as was a child in Kiev, Ukraine. Her mother was a seamstress and fashion icon. Growing up, she made all Tatyana and her sisters’ clothes.

Tatyana’s clothing line blends elements of her childhood with the artistry of movies, costumes, culture, and history. Now living in Chicago, she draws inspiration from people with personal she sees on the street.

“I love Chicago. It’s truly an amazing city with super nice people and unique style.”
