History

Dunin-Barkovsky Daniel Dmitrievich, the great-uncle of Dunin Richard Evgenievich, restored the family's historical surname in 2021, after they changed their surname during the times of repression, removing the name of the noble coat of arms.

In 2022, we started developing the concept of the family brand, which is designed to embody the rich traditions, cultural heritage and historical significance of the family. This stage has become a key one in shaping the brand's unique positioning and visual identity.

During this period, the creation of its own design bureau was initiated, which began to develop the visual elements of the brand. We paid special attention to creating a unique identity that accurately reflected the brand's philosophy and values.

In 2024, we carried out extensive work on the creation of trial samples of products together with the experimental production workshop. These samples became the basis for the development of future collections, allowing us to carefully work out all the details and nuances of production.

We organized a unique author's photo exhibition within the framework of the October Project, together with the RBI construction company.

A special milestone in the history of Dunin-Barkovsky was the day of August 8, 2024. As part of a collaborative project with an engineering company, the first 140 T-shirts were sewn. This day is rightfully considered the birthday of our brand, symbolizing the beginning of its production activities.

In 2025, the Dunin-Barkovsky trademark registration process was successfully launched. This important stage marked the beginning of a new path and opened up wide prospects for the brand's development.

In 2026, the first Primum collection was released under the Dunin-Barkovsky brand.

Today, in St. Petersburg, together with the experimental production workshop, there is a team that fully controls the creation of collections, ensuring the highest level of quality at every stage of production.

Today, we focus on strategically important areas of development that contribute to strengthening the brand's position in the market. We are actively developing partnerships within the country, creating transparent and efficient production chains. We are developing international distribution. Special attention is paid to logistics optimization, which allows us to reduce costs and increase the speed of product delivery.

Currently, an architectural plan is being developed for a new modern office, which will be located in the historical center of St. Petersburg. The spacious office space will become a center of attraction for all brand directorates, and will also include a sample room, a showroom for working with clients and partners.

Dunin-Barkovsky supports the social project "Help Nearby", aimed at supporting charitable foundations and non-profit organizations. We strive to contribute to the development of society and improve the quality of life of those in need.

As part of our strategic development, we are actively working on launching new collections and expanding existing business lines.
