UFW SS25: DELEGAN presentation

Designer Oksana Delegan delves into history and self-discovery through clothing to find new points of support in the present. Only by finding our purpose can we begin to deeply accept and love ourselves without expectations or demands. The White Cornflower emerges as the central character in this story of personal value, hidden within each soul and awaiting awakening.

With the FW24-25 collection, we experience the cycle of the cornflower, embracing its form and texture: sharp collar outlines and precise suit silhouettes combine with the most delicate petals in the form of weightless details. Mastering velvet embroidery, DELEGAN experiments with transparent textures and discovers a new level of thread mastery. Delicate strands of silk threads adorn dresses, skirts, and bodysuits with unique patterns, while the brand’s signature plakhty-skirts find new life in innovative designs and ancient techniques. A standout feature of the collection is porcelain: handcrafted cornflowers “bloom” as buttons on jackets and dresses and intertwine to form the belt — the main accessory of the collection.

“By looking to our past, we find answers to contemporary questions that guide us to the future. The FW24-25 collection is full of dualities and contrasts, with each piece being unique and holding its own story and purpose,” concludes the brand’s designer, Oksana Delegan.
