Hi, I’m Anna Bragina — a conceptual fashion designer creating expressive garments with strong silhouettes and visual narratives. I work with: concept development, fashion research, silhouette design, material experimentation, draping, styling and collection development. My approach: combining current trends with experimental construction, layering and unconventional materials. Software: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, CLO 3D, Procreate and Adobe InDesign.

The Lives of Others is a conceptual fashion project inspired by the 2006 film of the same name, where observation becomes part of a system that slowly changes the way a person understands their own role within it. The collection explores the unstable position of someone who is both watching and being watched, turning ideas of control, privacy and vulnerability into a visual language.The structure of window blinds became the key design motif, translated into layered construction, repeated horizontal elements and rigid silhouettes that partially conceal and expose the body at the same time. Through material experimentation and sculptural form, the project transforms surveillance into something physical and wearable, showing how clothing can carry a narrative and create a strong emotional statement rather than function only as an object.

COMPLICITY explores mutual observation as a social condition, where the roles of observer and observed constantly shift. The collection translates this idea through the visual logic of blinds: repeated layered elements create a surface that can both reveal and conceal, turning the garment into a metaphor for control, privacy and exposure.The rigid, fragmented construction contrasts with the body underneath, creating tension between protection and vulnerability. Through sculptural silhouette and material experimentation, the project turns an abstract social concept into a wearable statement with a strong visual identity.

BLUE LOTUS PROJECT is built around the idea of a soft hallucination — a state in which reality is only slightly distorted, but enough to make perception feel unstable. The image of a blue lotus is repeatedly duplicated, layered and shifted until it begins to lose its original clarity and turns into something fluid, suspended between the visible and the imagined.This principle is translated into the garment through transparency, overlapping layers and fragmented movement. Instead of treating repetition as decoration, I use it as a tool to alter the way the silhouette is perceived, creating a piece that feels constantly in transition and turns clothing into an immersive visual experience.
