Concept

13 23 Kids is the first and only factory specializing in vintage-style holiday dresses for girls. The brand's mission is to create unique models from original fabrics, adorned with luxurious beadwork, pearls, delicate lace, and other stunning embellishments. Each design is crafted by the visionary founder of the company, Yulia Shalashova. The dresses are lightweight and comfortable, allowing freedom of movement during celebrations and active play. The brand donates 5% of all sales to a fund supporting homeless animals.

Brand History

As a child, Yulia loved flipping through "Burda" magazines with her grandmother, who was then the head of a sewing atelier. Her grandmother hoped Yulia would learn the art of sewing, but Yulia had other plans. It wasn't until the summer of 2018 that Yulia returned to the idea of creating clothing. In 2020, she launched the vintage children's dress brand 13 23 Kids.
