Brand facts

Fidan Novruzova is the Paris-based namesake womenswear label of a Central Saint Martins graduate with Azerbaijani roots and a Moldovan upbringing, founded in October 2020. The label combines traditional craftsmanship with retrofuturistic silhouettes: exaggerated cape-like collars, riding trousers and tailoring that conflates modern and bygone eras. Its cult item is the Havva boot, reworked each season including over-the-knee versions. Novruzova was an LVMH Prize semi-finalist in 2024, the first Moldovan designer nominated, and collaborated with Asics on a reworked Gel-Cumulus 16. Sold through SSENSE and other international retailers.
