MG ATELIER: HANDMADE MAGIC

Handmade gifts and fashion are more than a way to stand out from the crowd of people clad in mass produced apparel. Customised to the highest level and created with passion and love, it is the embodiment of care for oneself, others and the planet. MG Atelier is an outstanding brand for handcrafted items that is on the mission to bring comfort, beauty and style in the life of its clients. Its founder, Margarita Gigyova, shares more.

For whom are the handmade items of MG Atelier?

I was blessed with having the most colourful and wonderful clients. They love handmade and personalised gifts and always choose them as their way to express their love. Moreover, each of my handcrafted items has its own unique story. 

While I am creating it, I have the chance of becoming a part of so many wonderful experiences – the emotion of the future bride, the confidence of the business woman or the pride of the mother celebrating her daughter's graduation. For me, communication with every client is key. The discussion of the model, the fabric and the cut of a dress, for example, reveal to me how the client wants to express herself through it, what message she wants to send. And the greatest pleasure is in learning the stories behind the items I make for children – baby blankets, Hugging Bunnies, baptism accessories, masks and costumes for birthdays and school plays.

How does the elegant woman dress today, according to MG Atelier?

The elegant woman shines with her exceptional individuality, stylish confidence and impressive behaviour. She accepts herself as she is, knows who she is, what she wants and how to achieve it. These qualities are always in vogue, immune to the changes of seasons and trends.

The elegant woman deliberately decides to stand out by wearing tailored clothes that are comfortable yet expressive. She cherishes the creative part of the experience – to visit our colourful and cosy atelier and together with us, a cup of coffee or a glass of wine in hand, to create a new masterpiece of fashion. Making this magic of textile together with so many exceptional women is a privilege for my team and me.

I am looking for a nice Christmas present. How can you help me?

We know that sometimes choosing Christmas gifts for partners, colleagues and family can be stressful. We offer options that help our clients to have a calmer pre-Christmas time.

For our youngest friends, we have soft textile personalised toys – bunnies, dolls and magic forest animals that grow with the child. We also have soft and warm blankets for snuggling, and magical cases and pouches where they can keep their most precious possessions.

We have plenty of options for grown ups as well. If you do not know someone well – for example your boss or a colleague, you can choose a bottle of good wine and present it in a tailored bag of eco leather or felt with Christmas decorations. Another option is a Christmas stocking with or without sparkling embroidery with a handwritten Christmas card or other personalisation, or presenting a good book in a festive cover in a special gift box with a personal message. These are just some of the ideas of MG Atelier for Christmas 2024.

Which are the most popular creations of MG Atelier?

The clients' wishes and needs change with time, but some items remain universally popular.

The absolute favourite in our Ladies' Fashion section is the long or short A-dress of different fabrics and with different accessories. It is a versatile solution for all seasons and occasions.

Textile tote bags are our most popular accessory. Durable, comfortable and environmentally friendly, they are excellent shopping companions in all seasons and help us cut our plastic use.

In the Kids' section, besides personalised textile toys, in high demand are the blouses from the Back to School collection. We make them from soft and high-quality organic cotton jersey in amazing prints and colours. We wash the fabrics beforehand to avoid shrinking and choose cuts that are comfortable for both small and older kids.

I want to thank our clients and followers for their support! By choosing handmade items you support local artisans and artists and owners of micro and small businesses. Thanks to you, we have the honour and privilege to be part of your most intimate life events and celebrations. Thank you!
