Fashion Wunderkind Kira Plastinina Buys $2.5 Million Chelsea Apartment
You may remember Kira Plastinina making headlines back in 2008, when she, all at the age of 16, launched her namesake fashion line, opened a dozen US stores, and later that same year closed them all and filed for bankruptcy. Originally from Moscow, Kira has now launched a new high-end fashion line called Lublu in Dallas, Texas, but it looks like she might also be planning to make some moves in the Big Apple. According to city records, she purchased apartment 3A at the Slate Condominium at 163 West 18th Street for $2.45 million.
The 1,279-square-foot condo has two bedrooms, a large entry foyer, and two terraces. It also features Brazillian hardwood floors, 9.5-foot ceilings, and huge windows that provide views of three exposures. The modern kitchen comes complete with Carrera marble counters; Bosch dishwasher, cooktop, and convection oven; and a Sub Zero refrigerator.
The Slate Condominium was designed in 2008 by Karl Fisher Architects with interiors by Andres Escobar. Among its amenities are a fitness center and pet spa. Sounds fit for a fashionista to us, especially with its trendy Chelsea location.
