Notmysize
Notmysize is a footwear brand founded by Anna and Leon Crayfish in 2011. The project was originally conceived as a shoe atelier, and its playful name referred to the difficulty people with very large or very small feet often have finding the right shoes.
Today, Notmysize produces footwear in small batches at its own workshop, with most of the work done by hand. Leon is responsible for the design and development of new models.

Okkervile
The idea for Okkervile was born in 2010, but the brand officially launched in 2015. Its name is a modified version of the name of a district in St Petersburg, which itself originated from the surname of a Swedish officer. The name helped shape the brand’s character- masculine, slightly rebellious, with a touch of dandyism.
Today, Okkervile creates unisex clothing- simple everyday pieces with a slightly rebellious edge. We work mainly with natural materials and produce everything ourselves in small batches in Moscow.

2003-2008
I began my career in St Petersburg in 2004, experimenting with contemporary underground menswear and paying particular attention to textile design and colour. From 2006, I started actively incorporating footwear into my clothing collections, which eventually led to the creation of the footwear brand Notmysize in 2010. Since then, my main focus has been on developing new forms and techniques within Notmysize.

“I wanted to create a series of jewellery based on simple graphic forms, while keeping the pieces relatively bold and substantial, so they would emphasise the character of the person wearing them.
The geometric shapes resemble skyscrapers of the future or totems of the gods of a new millennium. The pieces feel almost like artefacts brought back from the future.”
