DMITRY SHOLOKHOV
When Project Runway season 10 winner
was a kid, in his native Belarus, he used to
spend hours staring at shapes and colors in
the nature and finding beauty in them. “I
still keep staring at shapes and colors and
searching for beauty, and I believe that
obsession will stay with me forever”, is what
drives Dmitry.
Dmitry Sholokhov was born in Belarus, to a
family of intellectuals who introduced him
to art, literature, music and dance. It is from
early age that this was the world he chose
to live in. When he decided to expend this
world and make his mark in it, he moved to
New York City, at the age of 19. He enrolled
and graduated from Parsons School of
Design, earning his BFA in Fashion Design.
During his studies, he was offered internships
at Calvin Klein and J. Mandel. Immediately
after graduation he accepted a full-time
position at Italian house of Domenico
Vacca, and soon became Design Director.
F
ashion professionals recognized genuine talent, strong artistic presence and personal
charm in Dmitry which resulted in offering him to create his own collection. The collection,
which he made for Domenico Vacca was a huge success and was sold to the famous
Harrods in London. That led to an even more challenging position at the Jones Apparel
Group.
