Venera Tabakin is a London-based fashion designer known for her distinctive ability to blend sensuality with sophistication. Her gowns celebrate the essence of modern femininity—bold, elegant, and unapologetically confident.
Her creative journey began on the island of Phuket, Thailand, where she became the first non-Thai designer to present her vision to a vibrant, international community. Immersed in this unique cultural environment, she developed a signature style rooted in elegance, fluidity, and feminine strength.
Upon returning to the UK, Venera expanded her brand and impact. Over the past seven years, her collections have graced the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival, worn by acclaimed actresses including Lea Mornar and Kiera Chaplin. One of her standout moments includes a striking blue gown paired with Chopard’s iconic jewelry—an image that captured global attention. 
In addition to fashion design, Venera works as a producer and costume designer for short films, contributing creatively to storytelling through style. Her work behind the scenes reflects the same dedication to craft and detail that defines her couture.
Deeply committed to championing women’s empowerment, Venera proudly supports the SHE SQUAD and the “Yes She Cannes” initiative, founded by Faith Elizabeth. These platforms celebrate female voices in film and advocate for greater visibility and equality. In 2018, she presented her designs at the World Peace Night charity gala alongside LaToya Jackson, showcasing her work in the name of unity and empowerment.
Her gowns have made appearances at major international events such as the Latin Grammy Awards, the Venice Film Festival, the Berlin Film Festival, and the Red Sea International Film Festival in Jeddah. Every design is crafted to help women stand out with timeless poise and modern confidence.
For Venera, fashion is not just about garments—it’s a vehicle for self-expression, empowerment, and inner strength.
She is elegant. She is feminine. She inspires. She leads. She is. She can. Yes, she Cannes.
