Matrushka Handmade Design 

Every piece of Matrushka fashion is designed, cut, and sewn by hand. This highlights the boutique’s specialization in customizing and tailoring fits that guarantee your satisfaction every time. Each clothing element represents a unique personality about the wearer and constructs their full character when combined with other elements of the clothing. If not satisfied, customers can request alterations in-store and Matrushka is more than willing to respond to their needs. From funky to conservative, Matrushka can transform a simple piece of fabric into a memorable fashion statement. 

Locally and Ethically-Sourced Materials

One of the most creative strategies of Maltrushka is the use of “deadstock, remnant bolts of fabric, meticulously and locally sourced” materials to make products. This does not mean that the garments are made with thrown-away and reusable fabrics. Instead, this means that our remnants are original and straight-from-the-sources. The ever-changing nature of locally-sourced fabrics creates a one-of-a-kind color palette that best fits your aesthetic. Maltrushka’s creative strategy brings your visions into reality. 

Female-Owned Business 

Meet Laura Howe! Howe is Maltrushka’s owner and designer. With a USC scholarship and passion in fashion, Howe aspires to reflect her artistic dream on her designs. These are, after all, made by the people and for the people. This sense of involvement gives the brand a sense of pride and accomplishment right here in Silver Lake and in the larger sense of community. Above all, Howe and Maltrushka’s staff strongly believe that the best clothing is one that accentuates the wearer’s body positivity and confidence.
