NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: In 'Shark Tank' Season 15, Episode 4, Maria Agapkina wants to find a fit for Monosuit, her brand of one-piece jumpsuits. Monosuit aims to provide modern, nostalgic, gender-bending, and eco-conscious designs that are wearable urban uniforms.

In 2013, Maria, a female entrepreneur and graduate of Central Saint Martins, launched MONOSUIT, an independent unisex brand whose inspiration stems from space science and the concept of interplanetary travel.

The crux of their collection is a 'smart' technical jumpsuit, sometimes known as a 'monosuit', with an inventive lower back zipper that addresses a ton of uncomfortable, real-world problems associated with wearing a one-piece in public.

The fundamental concept of efficient futuristic items is brought to life by monosuits, which are effortlessly adaptable to any setting, mood, or fashion preference.

Customers' understanding of jumpsuits as essential wardrobe pieces and a never-ending source of style inspiration is growing thanks to the brand.

Since 2019, MONOSUIT has been a leader in the seamless clothing industry. They use recycled yarn, have a zero-waste policy, and impregnate their clothing with antibacterial agents.

Their team is committed to gradually moving the fashion industry towards this algorithm in order to reduce its negative environmental effects.

MONOSUIT's items have been worn by Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Uma Thurman, Maye Musk, Tina Kunakey, Grimes, Kylie Jenner, and Cindy Bruna, and have been published in publications such as Forbes USA, Vogue Paris, Vanity Fair Italia, and many more.

MONOSUIT's team debuts new collections twice a year at New York Fashion Week and provides a diverse range of casual things centered around a monosuit—dresses, shirts, bottoms, and accessories.

What is MONOSUIT?

MONOSUIT has distinguished itself in the congested fashion business by creating one-of-a-kind jumpsuits that combine future practicality with current design.

This New York-based unisex business, located at the convergence of innovation and practicality, is making a significant impact by reimagining daily wear with patented designs and a focus on sustainability.

MONOSUIT is well known for its trademark 'smart' jumpsuits with proprietary hidden zippers in the lower back. This design eliminates the usually inconvenient and cumbersome concerns associated with wearing a one-piece costume, notably while visiting the lavatory.

The jumpsuit is adaptable and can be worn in a variety of ways, such as with the zipper in the front, rear, or even upside down, allowing customers to constantly reinvent their look.

In 2019, the company took an important step towards sustainability by launching a shift to seamless apparel created with circular knitting techniques. MONOSUIT's goods are practically zero-waste and have a small environmental imprint since they use ECONYL regenerated yarn, which is manufactured from recycled ocean debris.

In addition, the brand does not utilize animal-derived goods in its designs and focuses on long-term, seasonless, and trendless wear.

MONOSUIT comes in a variety of sizes, heights, measures, proportions, and colors, with an infinite table of grading for each piece. This guarantees that the clothes may be personalized to meet the needs of the client, embracing diversity and inclusivity in fashion.

The company is also recognized for its many ranges of casual things centered on a MONOSUIT, such as accessories, bottoms, shirts, and dresses.

What is the cost and where to buy MONOSUIT?

MONOSUIT is a multinational suit manufacturer that caters to both men and women. They also produce monoskins, which are tighter, more yoga-pant-like accessories, as well as bottoms, tops, skirts, and outfits.

Their all-inclusive size allows customers to tailor their suits to their body type. Every year, new designs are released. The suits range in price from $280 to $600, depending on the style, and are only available on their website.

Customers can make their purchases from the brand's official website.

Customers have also reviewed their products on their website and one customer said, "This shiny blue color is really adorable. It was exactly what I had in mind for a bolero. Nice touch with the bows too."

Another person chimed in, "Well you guys know how to make someone's day. I'm glad it came in the mail today. I tried it and it fits perfectly. It's lovely too. Thanks!"

One person also wrote, "I knew I wouldn't be disappointed! It’s way more beautiful than I imagined! If I can rate you guys it should be a ten! Perfection!"

Where is MONOSUIT now?

The brand has evolved into an international corporation with headquarters in New York and a diversified team of professionals from Italy, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

MONOSUIT, as opposed to a typical hierarchical structure, fosters an environment of mutual respect, innovation, and equality. This setting encourages brainstorming sessions and open communication, resulting in a creative, but rather chaotic, workplace.

The company's breakthrough came when it got a seed round of financing in the United States. This enabled the launch of additional collections, the establishment of a website, and continued commercial growth.

MONOSUIT has earned coverage in renowned magazines such as Vanity Fair Italia, Vogue Paris, and Forbes USA.

MONOSUIT's dedication to sustainability is particularly notable. Understanding the environmental effect of the fashion business, MONOSUIT attempts to mitigate it by employing high-precision layouts to save waste during manufacturing and by using 3D modeling instead of making many samples.

MONOSUIT is more than simply a fashion label; it represents a new approach to clothing that combines style, usefulness, and environmental responsibility.

Who will steal the deal?

No shark may invest in MONOSUIT as they might believe Maria does not require funding. She seemed to be doing well for herself, with a global clientele.
