The first thing visitors of the Ukrainian Fashion Week see is the exhibition, dedicated
to the events on Maydan. These are the painted construction helmets, T-shirts and sweatshirts
with the words "Stop Putin," "Glory to Heroes", "Ukraine Has Not Yet Perished".
All these things have been created by Ukrainian designers during the confrontations in the capital.
- I have drawn this at the end of February immediately after the terrible events, because
you sit at home, well, very scared and worried. I wanted to express my gratitude to those
people who were on Maydan.
- Closed mouth and a poppy -- these, kind of, are also symbols of Ukraine
Liliya Poustovit traditionally opened the Ukrainian Fashion Week. First minutes the
models in long exquisite dresses have walked down the runway without music. At the shows
-- minimum of guest, or the journalists only. This season will not host any traditional
glamorous parties. In this way designers decided to show that Ukrainian Fashion Week for them
is not a social event and celebration, but a place to work.
