In 2022, work began on the concept of a family brand that embodies the traditions, culture and history of the family. During this period, the brand's identity began to form with the participation of its own design studio. We seriously thought about our own visual identity, which could meet the philosophy and values of Dunin-Barkovsky.
In 2024, trial samples were sewn together with the atelierigolka experimental production workshop, which laid the foundation for future collections.
On August 8, 2024, the first 140 T-shirts were sewn as part of a collaborative project with an engineering company, and this day is considered Dunin-Barkovsky's birthday.
