Helen Valk Varavin – Lingerie From Estonia

Helen Valk is a distinctive, independent brand from Tartu, Estonia, with devoted fans across Europe and Russia. The founder and sole creator designs and sews pieces that are simultaneously luxurious, cozy, and playful. Lingerie occupies a central place in the brand’s lineup, alongside dresses and jewelry.

Helen Valk Varavin was inspired to create women’s lingerie while already designing her unconventional silk dresses. She found it odd that clients had to wear standard, uncomfortable bras with such beautiful garments. Today, the Estonian indie designer has several collections of handmade silk lingerie to her name.
