Our Story

Welcome to the Wonderful World of Kookooshka Studio!

Founded in 1999, Kookooshka Studio is the creation of Anastassia Gonye, a Russian born American artist, and fashion designer. " My Grandparents were both theater artists for The Russian theater in St. Petersburg. My grandmothers' costume design paintings hang in my studio for inspiration. My mother worked in ateliers of the leading couture houses in Moscow. She was also the Master of Embroidery for the Russian Olympic figure Skating team."

Kookooshka Studio has grew steadily from very humble beginnings. " I started to design my line at my kitchen table, sewing in the basement, using discarded fabrics sold at the factory by the pound."

Now many years later, after our children's brand Tuff Kookooshka was sold in stores and boutiques across America, in Canada, and Japan, we have switched gears and are producing one of a kind adult outwear.

I use almost exclusively found, thrifted, and recycled textiles to make my wearable art. I run my studio as close to zero waste as possible, recycling and up-cycling vintage textiles and garments to create one of a kind street wear for adults of all ages.
