KRASNOPOLSKA
Ukrainian Fashion Week FW 2026

A study of contrast, material, and form.

KRASNOPOLSKA presents a collection of statement headpieces and accessories where craftsmanship meets experimentation. Traditional techniques are reinterpreted through unexpected materials, creating a new visual language for contemporary adornment.

The collection combines crochet and knitting with metal chains, glass, crystals, natural pearls, and stones. Soft textures are set against industrial elements, forming a balance between fragility and strength.

Each piece goes beyond decoration — it shapes the identity of the look. Accessories here are not additions, but central elements that define the silhouette and narrative.

Handcrafted with precision and attention to detail, the collection reflects a dialogue between heritage and modern design.

YAROSLAV FILIP — Stop Stigma
Ukrainian Fashion Week FW 2026

A collection that speaks without explanation.

Stop Stigma is not about protest for the sake of protest. It is about the freedom to exist without labels. Through clothing, the designer explores identity beyond gender, roles, and expectations.

Built around deconstructed menswear tailoring, the collection reframes the suit as a symbol — not of status, but of restriction. By transforming its structure, Yaroslav Filip redefines its meaning, turning it into a medium of personal expression.

Each look functions as an independent narrative. Materials, sound, movement, and form come together to communicate what words often fail to express.

This is clothing that does not impose — it creates space.

From black to beige.
From pressure to choice.
From structure to movement.

Continuing to highlight bold and forward-thinking designers presented this season, we’re spotlighting PLN-GNS and their FW26 collection “ERROR AS ASSET” 🇺🇦

The collection redefines waste, error and imperfection as valuable resources within contemporary fashion. Built around two lines — ICONIC and SIGNATURE — it combines conceptual one-of-one pieces made entirely from discarded sneakers with more accessible designs incorporating recycled materials.

Rejecting traditional gender divisions, the collection is structured through feminine and masculine fits, creating a balanced and inclusive visual language.

Each garment becomes a statement of transformation — constructed through intensive handcraft, with up to 80 hours required for a single piece, repurposing hundreds of sneakers into wearable forms.

Beyond aesthetics, the collection carries a strong social message. Makeup referencing frostbite reflects the reality of Ukraine today, where ongoing attacks on energy infrastructure shape everyday life.

Blending fashion with environmental and political commentary, “ERROR AS ASSET” is not just a collection — but a system, a critique and a vision of a more responsible future.

Following this season’s Ukrainian Fashion Week, we continue to spotlight designers who are redefining fashion as a language of meaning and transformation 🇺🇦

JULIYA KROS presents the FW26/27 collection — an exploration of transformation as a state of conscious strength.

In a world that demands adaptability, the collection rethinks clothing as a tool for movement and identity. Transformable designs — reversible pieces, adjustable silhouettes and detachable elements — allow one garment to take on multiple roles.

Structured through geometric sleeves, defined shoulders and sculptural details, each look is built with intention rather than decoration. A restrained palette of black, blue, grey and warm brown reinforces ideas of clarity, balance and resilience.

More than a collection, this is a statement about change without losing self — about strength found in flexibility and awareness.

Presented in collaboration with partners across business, sport and social impact, the show extended beyond fashion — becoming a reflection on resilience, inclusion and the power of human connection.

As we continue to look back at collections presented during Ukrainian Fashion Week, we’re highlighting the latest drop from the COAT by Katya Silchenko 🇺🇦

Spring Drop 2026 unfolds as a story of friendship — with Valeria Guzema as the heroine of the collection. What began as a genuine connection between two brand founders evolved into a collaboration rooted in shared values and mutual support.

The collection builds a dialogue between historical costume and modern design. Key silhouettes include a trench coat with a sculptural Medici collar, reinterpreted in a contemporary way, and a cape bomber with a cocoon shape that blends volume with structure.

Clean tailoring is contrasted by intentionally raw details — visible loose threads running through garments add a sense of tension between precision and imperfection, shaping a new, more complex femininity.

Inspired by a shift from urban energy to historical references, the collection draws on museum aesthetics, fabric textures and intricate details — bringing past and present into a refined balance.

As we reflect on the collections presented during Ukrainian Fashion Week, we continue to share designers whose work goes beyond fashion 🇺🇦

Memento Vitae — “remember life” — emerges as a quiet response to the familiar phrase Memento Mori. The collection was created through improvisation, upcycling and recycled materials, each piece carrying traces of different lives and stories.

At its core, it is a reflection on simple human existence — on life as both something deeply personal and universally shared. Each look represents a stage of this journey, reminding us that despite our differences, we all move through the same path: birth, life and death.

Through silhouettes, textures and symbolic details, the collection explores the fragility of individuality and the inevitability of time — the tension between the desire to stand out and the shared destiny that ultimately unites us.

More than a statement, Memento Vitae is about awareness — remembering life, its value and its fleeting beauty.

From bold statements to conscious craftsmanship, Ukrainian designers continue to redefine the role of accessories at Ukrainian Fashion Week 🇺🇦

REMNOVA BAGS presents a collection of statement pieces crafted from biodegradable raffia — where accessories become the focal point of the look rather than a finishing touch.

At the heart of the collection is the brand’s signature fringed “curly” bag, alongside clutches and headpieces designed as part of a cohesive visual statement.

Built on the contrast of bold colours and soft textures, each piece combines vibrant оттенки with the fluidity of handwoven material, creating a tactile and visually striking result.

Handcrafted with attention to movement, texture and detail, the collection reflects a balance between emotional design and a responsible approach to materials.

With this collection, REMNOVA BAGS celebrates individuality, craftsmanship and the confidence to stand out.

We continue to celebrate the creativity and resilience of Ukrainian designers showcased at Ukrainian Fashion Week 🇺🇦

LeCRI presents its new collection “Ama” — inspired by Japan’s legendary women of the sea.

For centuries, the Ama divers have descended into cold ocean waters without equipment, harvesting pearls and marine treasures. Their story of resilience, ritual and harmony with nature becomes the foundation of this collection.

The designer reinterprets traditional Japanese fabric techniques, creating sculptural silhouettes that reflect movement, fluidity and control.

Remaining true to the brand’s DNA, “Ama” incorporates recycled and unconventional materials, with a strong focus on craftsmanship and experimental fabric manipulation.

A poetic dialogue between strength and delicacy, the collection pays tribute to women who exist in harmony with the elements.

Among the standout collections presented at Ukrainian Fashion Week, Mint unveiled its FW26–27 collection CODE 80s 🇺🇦

A bold reinterpretation of power dressing, the collection draws on the archetype of the 1980s woman — confident, ambitious and unapologetically present.

Inspired by iconic heroines of the era, strong silhouettes with accentuated shoulders are balanced by fluid silk and deep drapery, creating a dialogue between strength and sensuality.

Presented as a cinematic performance, the show unfolded through choreographed movement, where garments became an extension of character — expressing control, tension and individuality.

A rich palette of chocolate tones, metallic blue, soft beige and graphic animal accents adds depth, while accessories created in collaboration with Agres Jewelry complete the looks.

With CODE 80s, Mint reimagines the codes of the 80s for the modern woman — powerful, self-assured and full of presence.

Continuing to highlight creative voices presented during Ukrainian Fashion Week, we’re pleased to share a special project at the intersection of fashion and art 🇺🇦

In collaboration with Ukrainian Fashion Week, contemporary art gallery MISTRIKA presented “The Unlost Paradise” — an exhibition by Ukrainian artist Anastasiia Podervianska.

Working across textiles, painting and objects, Podervianska transforms fabric into a living artistic surface, where embroidery, collage and fragments of clothing become a language of thought rather than decoration.

Her works bring together folklore and postmodernity, the sacred and the ironic, exploring themes of love, mythology, femininity and duality — where paradise exists alongside hell, and beauty is inseparable from complexity.

Blending Baroque influences with a contemporary perspective, the exhibition unfolds as a layered textile universe — at once intimate, theatrical and deeply symbolic.

More than an exhibition, “The Unlost Paradise” becomes a reflection on identity, memory and the intricate fabric of human experience.
