The first Niguliste show
Amanjeda by Katrin Kuldma
Where the tradition began
Katrin Kuldma’s first major fashion show at Niguliste brought contemporary design into the historic setting of the church. Music was performed by Villu Veski and Saxappeal Band.
In 1998, Katrin Kuldma the legendary show took place at the Niguliste Museum in Tallinn — the first and one of a kind, a setting where sacred space, history, and contemporary design converged. The show marked an important moment in the evolution of Katrin Kuldma fashion house and Amanjeda brand, bringing modern fashion into dialogue with centuries-old architecture and spiritual atmosphere.

Set beneath the vaulted ceilings of Niguliste, the collection explored contrasts of strength and fragility, structure and fluidity. Natural materials, refined craftsmanship, and a quiet, sculptural silhouette reflected Kuldma’s commitment to clothing as a form of cultural expression rather than seasonal statement. The design philosophy standing on values of quality has evolved and strengthened through the time.
The Niguliste show remains a defining milestone for Amanjeda by Katrin Kuldma — a moment where fashion became a living installation, honoring tradition while asserting a distinctly modern, the voice of Northern Luxury.
