DICEVICI

LTAX collection

the most hyped-up collection yet. for this collection we expanded our designs from the folk lure collection & curated more detailed pieces for the annual lithuanian days festival in los angeles. to promote this collection, we worked with two talented photographers & 12 models to do a photoshoot. the photoshoot was incredibly successful & ended up in a very positive & fun collaboration with all of these talented contributers:) once this collection made it to LA, the lithuanian community chewed the entire collection up & left dicevici coming back home with an empty suitcase! this result of this collection has inspired many collaborations & curated pieces inspired by the ltac concepts.

Folk lure collection

by far, the largest collection we have made in our journey thus far. throughout the entirety of summer ’24, dicevici was able to come out with over 80 products for this collection which was sold live in the annual lithuanian days festival. this collection had a direct focus on traditional lithuanian emboirdery & patterns, with 98% of the materials being donated from the cleveland lithuanian club<3 this collection connected with the lithuanian community in pennsylvania sooo heavy:) with more than 70% of the collection being sold out in two days at the festival. since this drop, we have connected with so many people within the community & have completed lithuanian-inspired custom orders months following the event.

Arctic punk collection

what a shift this was in the dicevici journey. the concept was originally inspired from the three looks we created for the fabric pantry: ecosphere fashion show, based on arctic fashion. our idea was to combine our favorite material (denim) with fur to create the ultimate arctic looks. the result? the looks you see showcased by our models for the show. this was a big w for dicevici as we were awarded “best looks” for the arctic sector in the show:) after this, we knew this concept couldnt die off after the show-so we created the arctic punk collection. all further apparel designs & bags were inspired by the original looks we made for the show, with a little more edginess & funk. this collection still stands as an all-time fav:)

Mini lithuanian collection no.1

this mini collection was the start of a significant pivot in our journey. as expected, this collection was curated on a time-crunch for a vendor opportunity during a lithuanian event. with only a few hand-me down linen tableclothes & scraps of traditional lithuanian costumes (& a dream)-8 products were created for the event. little did dicevici know at the time, but this little collection was the start of something crazy extroardinary-cultural embracement. growing up surrounded by a lithuanian environment, throughout time its become increasingly important to sustain our lithuanian roots & embrace it in any way we can. this collection was the start of doing this through fashion..

Patched up dlx collection

The patched up dlx collection is an extension of the og patched up collection. quite honestly, this was a “time crunch” collection because it was curated in only 4 days for our first show- the painted lyrics sponsored fashion show. what we did was we took the bags from the patched up collection that didnt sell & re-upcycled them into new designs. these re-upcycled bags were purposefully created with a little more bang or funk, if you will. we wanted to emphasize the concept behind this collection by going with the first idea that popped up in dicevicis head. whether it was a good design or not, it didnt matter:) it was chaotic, messy, and most importantly the most freeing design experience ever. no expectations & no limitations=the best ideas.

The patched up collection

one of our favorite collections throughout the dicevici journey thus far. Many of the graphic designs you see in these bags were handsketched onto upcycled fabric. The design conceptualization is open for interpretation, they are inspired by the emotional impact from the elevation music genre. the flow of the music is captured within the curvy lines & spiraling, interconnected shapes. These drawings were then cut up in sectors & patched onto various bag shapes, thus the name “Patched up.” This collection was our first experimentation with emotion-based design & has become a foundation for many designs we have curated since.
