UPA was founded end of 2015 in Ireland by Vaida Rasciute. A Lithuanian mother of three. The idea was born with the birth of her daughter & muse Liepa.
Not following the fast lane of things Vaida wanted to create a universe that invites you to pause. To enjoy, to discover and to take time. UPA is a luxury kids clothing especially because the knitted garments are all hand knitted, each items comes beautifully presented with a case and a wooden hanger. The attention to detail is outstanding. And that is a luxury!
The S/S 2017 collection is made from linen and silk, includes embroidery, silk painting and is plant dyed by hand.
‘We take time in creating, making and we do pay extreme attention on presentation.‘
The collections are designed to be cherished and passed down to the next generation. Elegant, delicate clothes that are made for kids will just never go out of style.

‘I believe this dresses can be given to next generations. Even though each looks so fragile, they are incredibly long-lasting. My daughter wears these dresses since she started to walk and I have them already stored for her children!‘
The linen dress looks divine and I hope to discover their new collection during a show this summer. I am sure Vaida will present us beautiful collections in the coming years…
