Maison Faliakos

Founded in Athens in 1981 by Kostas Faliakos, Maison Faliakos has long been a reference point for Greek haute couture. Since 2003, under the direction of Christos Petridis—and later joined by Venediktos Antypas as artistic director—the house continues to evolve its legacy by merging artisanal craftsmanship with a contemporary design identity. The quilted vest from the Autumn/Winter 2021–2022 collection exemplifies the integration of couture techniques into the house’s prêt-à-porter lines. Hand-quilted and hand-embroidered with crystals, it showcases the precision and attention to detail that define Maison Faliakos’s approach. The pattern was hand-drafted and traced on millimetre paper.
