About IRMA ORE

I grew up in a very small village Bajoraiciai in Lithuania. Already at school I understood the power of clothing when bright red tights helped to attract children’s attention and to get elected as president of my school.

I have made high demands for my clothes since I was a child. To the irritation of my father, I was asking to go round and round the neighbouring towns until I could find clothes that met my style and quality requirements. My grandmother taught me to sew, so I liked to shorten and wear her skirts.

I have always enjoyed the fabrics and their various textures. However, I was amongst the best pupils at school and studying fashion or simply sewing did not appear a “serious” enough choice at the time. Therefore, I chose to study creative but serious things.

At first bioengineering, later I obtained a master’s degree in chemical analysis, and defended my doctoral degree in biomedicine. I studied not only in Lithuania, but also did internships in Germany, Belgium, Finland … I broadened my horizons, I realized that every job can be serious if we take it seriously.

However, I have always felt that I want to do something else. It’s interesting to work in the lab, but I lacked tangible results and interaction with people.

After graduating with a doctorate came the moment of deciding what to do next. And then my future husband, said the decisive words: you can do whatever you want, just be happy. Since then I have started making clothes.

I was grateful to find a highly experienced teacher who helped me to make my first professional steps, I have attended all possible courses, studied individually, and started sewing clothes according to individual measurements. 

After three years of hard work, I have started to work independently and I am proud that my clients wear my clothes as their favorites. My customers enjoy completely original and unique garments, dresses and suits. And there are no limits on wearing bespoke clothes, I even make clothes for TV anchors and presenters. I make clothes by hand on the basis of an individual pattern made specifically for the customer. I am proud of my attention to details, quality, and service.
