Kotapska is a family-owned brand with a soulful origin story. In 2002, two sisters from Chernivtsi, Ukraine, came up with the idea to create princess dresses, which led to the creation of the brand.

Iryna and Liudmyla are sisters who have been best friends since childhood. They've shared their dreams and secrets with each other, just like many other girls do. However, the dream that they've always had in common is to provide all girls in the world with a magical wedding experience.

It has been over 20 years since the sisters embarked on their mission to create fairy-tale wedding moments for brides worldwide, and they continue to do so through their globally recognized brand, Kotapska. Crafting a wedding dress is a continuous creative process that fuels the passion of the owners. Even during a simple photoshoot or while creating a lookbook, we get goosebumps from the satisfaction of seeing a dress we've created on a model. It's amazing to see how beautiful it looks. We've sold over 4,000 dresses this year, and then you think about how many brides have worn our dresses on their special day and said "WOW!" in the morning. And this is an incredible feeling.

As designers, Iryna and Ludmyla keep up with fashion trends, constantly develop their skills, attend master classes, and receive international-level training to enhance and expand the Kotapska brand.

"The Kotapska wedding brand is more than just a job; it's our way of life. We live and breathe our brand."
