Head designer and owner Dori Tomcsanyi established her independent contemporary womenswear brand in Budapest, Hungary in 2012, a year before she earned her Master’s degree in fashion design from Moholy-Nagy University of Arts and Design.

The brand name’s Eastern European feeling refers not only to its owner but to the whole story behind the label. The designer’s main inspirations originate from childhood memories of the happy days of the Eastern Bloc and the extreme differences between the background of her noble father and her mother coming from a family typical in the communist Hungary.

The starting point of each collection is something characteristically Eastern European such as the Metro line 3 in Budapest built in the 70s or the pioneer movement of the bygone era. The collections’ signature elements, the manually and digitally self-designed prints are always rooted in these themes.

As a contradiction, the silhouettes are always minimalist and loose yet feminine. The brand prefers to distribute classical garment types that can be easily fit into one’s wardrobe.
