About us
The most important message we want to bring to you - thank you! Thank you for visiting our website and willing to find out more!
We are Baiba and Lāsma - two girls, mothers, travel enthusiasts, and hard workers from a small country with a big heart Latvia!
Albertina is about making a difference - both for the planet and for women like us who have struggled with overflowing closets and a desire for more meaningful fashion. Like many of you, we have lived the frustration of having a closet full of clothes yet feeling like nothing to wear. We've also faced the challenge of packing for a trip and wanting to have enough outfit options with limited luggage space. That's why the dresses are designed to be versatile - they can be worn as one piece or separate pieces, giving you endless outfit possibilities for any occasion.
We can't ignore the fabric waste crisis that our planet is facing, and want to do our part in reducing it. That's why we use fabric waste to create stunning accessories that complement our dresses.
Our main designer and creator is Baiba, and here is her story: "I have a passion for sewing and creating unique, timeless pieces for my wardrobe. But it's not just about the clothes - it's about the story and inspiration behind them. When I think about my grandmother Albertina, who taught me how to sew, I'm filled with nostalgia and warmth. She not only taught me how to thread a needle, but she also ignited a creative spark in me. She inspired me to create pieces that are not only fashionable, but also hold sentimental value and meaning. And that's how Albertina butik was born."
Lāsma is the heart of our operations, and here are her thoughts: "The mission of my life is helping other people, and this weaves through everything I do. Helping people to find their style, feel and look beautiful is something that makes my heart run faster! Albertina is a brand that expresses my personal values and brings the meaning for me and other women, and I am truly grateful that I can be a part of it!"
With Albertina butik, it's not just about creating a capsule wardrobe, it's about creating a wardrobe that reflects your values, your style, and your story. It's about embracing the beauty of simplicity and sustainability and letting your clothing tell a meaningful story. Thank you for being a part of this journey with us. 💗
Love,Baiba & Lāsma
