Hot Designer: Samoy Lenko Is Living Her Own Fairytale

The Ukrainian designer Natasha Samoylenko has been defying tradition ever since deciding not to proceed with formal fashion school training after studying graphic design in New York City.

Her degreelessness didn't stop stores all over the U.S. from buying the signature skirts and dresses that make Samoy Lenko, her eponymous line, the success that it is today.

Her spring/summer 2008 collection, titled, 'Baika', or fable, introduces sweetly sexy wrap dresses, fall florals, and flirty tops that serve to further solidify her reputation as a designer who isn't afraid to breach convention and turn classic shapes into wearable inventions.

Whether it's the melange of storybook lore or Samoylenko's eye for unprecedented detail, we're sure her line will have you living fashionably ever after.
