"Life Prevails" serves as the motto for Lesi Pak, a young Ukrainian brand from Lviv specializing in baby clothing. In today's Ukrainian reality, these words carry profound significance. In celebration of Children's Day, we spoke with Lesya Pak, the brand's founder.
What deserves vocal recognition today, and what merits silence?
It's crucial to vocalize successes, achievements, and innovative ideas that benefit ourselves and others. Share your aspirations, dreams, and perspectives capable of reshaping our world. Speak proudly of Ukraine - its beauty, potential, culture, and traditions. We're all bearers of Ukrainian heritage, responsible for passing it on to future generations. This transmission of essence lies at the core of the LESI PAK brand's mission, reflected in every collection. However, certain matters, like the workings of our air defense, are best left unspoken.
When was the last time you found solace in silence?
For me, silence facilitates reconnecting with my true self. Immersed in nature's quiet embrace, I find clarity amidst introspection. Inner dialogue resonates most profoundly in these moments. I treasure silent introspection, delving into memories for answers, akin to a meditative quest yielding new insights or simply a moment of reverie.
When did you last commend yourself, and what were you striving for?
My dedication to perfecting our brand, LESI PAK, propels me to strive for excellence continually. While self-critique is commonplace, receiving customer feedback, like the LESI PAK christening dress becoming a cherished family heirloom, fills me with joy.
Identify the most exquisite thing, and why do you find it so?
My youth was enlivened by folk dance rehearsals in a concert hall, where meticulously crafted costumes, adorned with intricate embroidery and traditional elements, epitomized true beauty.
What talent do you wish to possess?
Playing the piano has always been a dream. While I embraced the role of music teacher for my daughter, only she mastered the instrument.
If you could retain just one memory, what would it be?
The births of my two children, cherished moments etched forever in my heart.
What characteristics befit modern men and women?
Politeness and kindness transcend gender. Rudeness has no place, but treating others with respect and kindness fosters mutual goodwill. A simple smile or lending a helping hand can work wonders.
If you were a cocktail, what would you be?
As a Lviv native, nothing beats a perfect espresso.
What maternal advice did you overlook, only to regret later?
Following one's dreams is invaluable advice often disregarded. Initially hesitant to pursue my passion for design, I eventually realized my childhood aspirations, culminating in the creation of the Lesi Pak brand.
Whose appearance do you consider overrated or underrated?
While Brad Pitt's appeal is undeniable, I find Adam Driver's understated charm captivating.
What scent embodies happiness?
Peonies evoke the essence of happiness for me, reminiscent of carefree summers in Kolomyia during my childhood, where their fragrance signaled joyous times ahead. Today, I revel in their aroma, a timeless reminder of blissful moments.
