Meet Ksenia Kams - A Combination of Colors and Details

Utilizing the very best Italian fabrics, Ksenia desires to bring inspiration and joy to women with looks that are feminine and vintage-inspired, yet have a modern edge. Her style transcends trends, resulting in wear-forever classics with a Russian twist.
