ABOUT

VALLDEA is an independent fashion label founded in 2024 by Lithuanian designer Valdemara Jasulaitytė, whose creative practice moves between fashion, sculpture and costume design.

Driven by experimentation and an interest in transforming the human silhouette, Jasulaitytė approaches clothing as a space for exploring new forms and identities. Her work is characterised by unconventional constructions, distorted proportions and sculptural textiles, often blurring the boundaries between wearable garments and imagined characters.

A graduate of Fashion Design at the Vilnius Academy of Arts, where she is currently pursuing a Master's degree in Sculpture, Jasulaitytė began gaining recognition in 2022, receiving both the Grand Prize and the Audience Award at the Young Designer Prize competition. Her work was presented at Klaipėda Fashion Week that same year, followed by Antecedent Tomorrow, a collaborative collection that won the Fashion Injection competition and was showcased at Fashion Infection in 2023.

In 2024, she established VALLDEA with Aigókerōs, a collection exploring duality through sculptural forms and experimental silhouettes. This was followed by MYTHES, a reinterpretation of mythology through contemporary fashion, where traditional references evolved into unconventional garments and character-like forms.

Her latest collection, APORIA, presented at Young Fashion Event in Vilnius in September 2026, marked a new direction for the label. Bringing together hand-cut textiles, sculptural tailoring and ready-to-wear, the collection explored fashion as an intuitive and playful creative process. In October 2026, Jasulaitytė made her Riga Fashion Week debut with an expanded 20-look presentation of APORIA, introducing VALLDEA to a wider international audience.

Beyond her own label, Jasulaitytė works as a costume designer for theatre and music performances, collaborating with major Lithuanian theatres and contemporary performers. Her practice across different disciplines continuously informs her approach to fashion, where clothing becomes a means of constructing characters, challenging familiar proportions and imagining alternative forms of the body.

Through VALLDEA, she continues to develop a visual language that brings together theatrical expression, experimental craftsmanship and contemporary ready-to-wear.
