Are you ready for the exclusive…
The collection is inspired by the architectural poetry and radical freedom of Antoni Gaudí, infused with the emotional depth of Spanish culture. A theme that truly resonates with me being that I am officially a Spanish resident now in Barcelona and there truly is so much beauty to see and discover through all aspects of the Spanish culture.
Reinterpreting the language of Catalan Modernism, the collection explores fluidity, asymmetry, and organic forms. Silhouettes appear instinctive rather than constructed, shaped by movement, air, and light. Each piece functions as a sculptural statement — couture conceived as living architecture.
The influence of the Sagrada Família emerges through transparency and luminosity. Layers of chiffon, organza, and lace create a stained-glass effect that drifts across the body, while intricate hand embroidery introduces rhythm, texture, and a sense of continuity.
Spanish references unfold with subtle intensity — in the sculptural drape, the dynamic flow of lines, and allusions to flamenco, Mediterranean light, and trencadís mosaics. The color palette moves from ivory and green to deep red and dramatic black, accented by marine blue and muted gold, echoing the tones of Barcelona at sunset, as well as the paintings of Frida Kahlo, through their vivid and joyful hues.
More than garments, these pieces exist as wearable art. Created for a woman who perceives form as emotion and craftsmanship as identity, the collection embodies a dialogue between architectural strength and poetic fragility.
I hope you enjoy this vibrant and intricately designed Gaudí collection by the talented Gaziza Shabdarbaeva. Each season she continues to bring forth a new and highly anticipated show full of beautiful creations that would make anyone feel like a starlet in their own life.

In this collection, faux-fur trims swirl like freshly fallen snowflakes, while crystal-studded embroidery and shimmering accessories capture the fantastic geometry of frost-laced branches and frozen lakes. Each exquisite detail is painstakingly handcrafted by InClover’s talented seamstresses—true winter artisans in their own right.
The fabric choices are poetic too: sequined earthen browns evoke rain-soaked soil peeking through melting drifts; smoky gray sequins layered under cloudy tulle conjure the hush of a fog-bound lake; and soft blush pink hints at the mystical twilight sky just before dawn’s first snowfall. Gaziza’s favorite material, lace, takes center stage—woven with beads and glass pearls that sparkle like crystalline hoarfrost.And let’s not forget the pièce de résistance: a bride’s crown of handcrafted “ice icicles” so lifelike that even the Snow Queen herself would nod in regal approval.
Slip into an Ice Queen design, and you’re swept away to a magical winter’s eve—where every InClover wearer becomes royalty in her own fairy tale.
The collection explores harmony between national roots and the needs of a modern woman who honors the past, while valuing herself. The name TAMYR translates from Kazakh as “root.” It symbolizes a profound connection to cultural heritage, respect for traditions, and their harmonious reinterpretation in fashion. The collection draws parallels between Kazakh artisanal traditions and contemporary trends. Inspiration from Kazakhstan’s rich cultural legacy is evident in its unique textural aesthetics and intricate handcraftsmanship.
Lace, macramé, lamé, beads, bugle beads, and organza, as the foundation of the collection, highlight exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail.Earrings and jewelry adorned with macramé, along with motifs of the shanyrak (yurt crown) and arkhar horns – iconic symbols of Kazakh culture. The collection includes everyday and bridal attire, as well as evening gowns, seamlessly blending modern versatility with timeless elegance. Inspired by nature and Kazakh traditions, the colors include white, ivory, black, gold, silver, turquoise, and red.
TAMYR is not only a tribute to the elders, but inspired by the younger generation, who found a unique Kazakh cultural style in a contemporary context. This concept is expressed through the combination of sophisticated modern tailoring with ethnic nuances, reflected in the collection’s textures, colors, and celebratory spirit, reminiscent of “toi” (Kazakh festivities).
The designer Gaziza Shabdarbayeva envisions the brand’s mission as a harmonious fusion of past and present.
