My Students
On this page I am sharing the designs of some of my students I had pleasure working with in Sydney.
OLGA GARBER
Olga Garber, an Australian entrepreneur, business development manager, dancer, and designer and creator of exclusive custom made dancewear, started a dancewear label Dance Like a Dragonfly. She designs and creates custom fit and custom made dresses in Sydney, in her design studio. Attention to detail, amazing handwork and beautiful finish make Olga Garber very popular between professional dancers. Her dresses definitely stand out on the dance floor!
“I started making costumes first when I had a dance show group. After dancing for many years I have also developed passion for dance/sport dresses. The diamantes, feathers, frills and lace…I have started making Latin and ballroom dresses for competitive dancers. In order to add more professional finish to my work I have started taking private tutorials with Olena Luggassi. The lessons have made dramatic difference to the quality of the dresses and have taken me to the next level of dressmaking. First of all would love to thank you for the support and a bit of a kick push my professional hobby. I have not stopped making dresses! The drawing lesson was huge help and the tips for finishes made all the difference. I have made 14 dresses this year and 3 more to finish. Very happy with myself. The lessons were best thing I could have done!”, Olga.
