OliviMilly Story

 

Welcome to our website!

 

My name is Irina Zasimovich and I am the founder and creative director of the OliviMilly brand.


By education I am an artist and designer.

But I became a mother of 4 children early, so I directed all my creativity towards them - my treasures.

My children's names are Evangelina, Aaron, Olivia and Stefania. I named my brand Olivimilly after my daughter Olivia.


It was my children who inspired me to create unusual clothes.

Clothes kids WANT to wear

My youngest daughter Stefania did not want to wear hats and scarves and constantly took them off. Then I knitted a Little Deer hat with flowers for her and told her a fairy tale about a Little Deer who got entangled in the rose bushes, so there are now flowers on his horns. My daughter liked the fairy tale and the hat so much that she didn’t even take it off at home.
This motivated me to create unusual clothes for children that they would be happy to wear.

Wool that doesn't prickle

Also my children have sensitive skin.

 That's why I found a soft yarn for them that doesn't itch - Baby Alpaca.

 It is hypoallergenic and safe for children and nature.
Now it is created for the OliviMilly brand at a factory in Peru.

To do this, we found the oldest yarn factory in Peru that has certificates of conformity. 

These certificates guarantee the safety of the yarn for people, animals and the environment, sustainability and transparency in the production system.


What makes this yarn so unique, you ask?


The yarn from which we knit all our products is very soft and light as a cloud.The fact is that a baby Alpaca is cut for the first time when he is 2 years old. It is the wool from the first haircut that is called baby Alpaca. Since baby Alpacas do not have long hairs, the yarn does not prick. The yarn also has hypoallergenic and dirt-repellent properties. Thanks to the natural composition of the yarn, a comfortable microclimate is created, which allows the baby’s skin to feel comfortable and not sweat.

Handmade clothes

All Olivimilly brand products are knitted and embroidered by hand by our craftswomen.


Each product is created individually and requires many hours of painstaking work.


Because we believe that such personal production brings more value and care to each buyer. It is very important for us to be environmentally friendly wherever possible at this stage. In an era of mass consumption and overproduction, it is important for us to create products that will be timeless.


 Each product is created with care and attention to even the smallest details, so that your children and you can enjoy high quality, wear the products for a long time and pass them on from generation to generation.

Revival of crafts

I spent 10 years with my children without the opportunity to work. It was important for me to realize myself in this world and earn money.
There are a lot of such women, especially in my country - Kazakhstan.
That's why I created a dream job for such women!
Women, mothers and grandmothers who can earn money doing what they love and help their families. All the craftswomen who create OliviMilly clothes work at home, without leaving their children and grandchildren.
We train them in our online school and give them jobs.
