Single
Confident. Sexy. Feminine. Fabulous!
Single, the women’s collection designed by Galina Sobolev,
delivers the latest in forward fashion, combining classic style
and luxury with beautiful, exuberant attitude. Known for gorgeous
fabrics and one-of-a-kind original prints from Italy and France,
Single is an unapologetic stand for a woman’s individual style
and confidence.
Fashion and style run deep in designer Galina Sobolev’s blood.
As a child in her native Russia, Galina learned to sew and crochet
from her grandmother, a well-respected dressmaker with her own atelier.
Noted as one of the most profound influences of her life, Galina
cites playing with the colorful fabrics and supple garments created
by her grandmother as being instrumental in establishing her dream
of designing.
After graduating with honors from the Fashion Institute of Technology
in Manhattan and walking the runway for major fashion houses in
NY, Galina began her design career in the luxury market, working
for an exclusive knitwear manufacturer for Marc Jacobs, among others.
In 1987 she switched gears and relocated to Los Angeles to design
for several successful lines in the contemporary market. However,
it was her fairytale meeting with future husband Michael Sobolev
that truly changed her life. Michael’s savvy business sense
and entrepreneurial drive combined with Galina's design talent,
created a perfect formula for starting their own venture. It wasn’t
long before Saks Fifth Avenue and Fred Segal picked up Galina’s
beautiful signature printed silk chiffon dresses. In 1996, based
on the overwhelmingly positive reaction, Galina and Michael streamlined
their collection into a label they named Single.
Single was conceived to reaffirm every woman's zest for life, romance,
and luxury. Since its conception, the company has grown to include
four lines, each equally fabulous. Single, Single Dress, Single
Girls, and the latest addition, Single After Eight, make it possible
for every girl to wear Single, regardless of age or occasion.
Since
the beginning, Single has had a loyal following from the finest
retailers and customers. The collection can be found in national
and international specialty and department stores, including Neiman
Marcus, Harvey Nichols (London), Fred Segal, Net-A-Porter.com, Bloomingdales,
Nordstrom, TSUM (Moscow), Planet Blue, and many other exclusive
boutiques worldwide.
