In celebration of its tenth anniversary, GURANDA presents The Suite No.X, a collection that returns to the foundations of the brand’s identity. This season, GURANDA does not seek to create a new aesthetic direction, but instead focuses on what has shaped the brand over the past decade: sculptural silhouettes, corsetry construction, and a bold eveningwear aesthetic. The project becomes a reflection on the codes that have made GURANDA recognizable.

“Ten years build consistency and inner integrity,” shares the brand’s designer, Olena Guranda. “With this collection, we did not want to reinvent ourselves. We wanted to return to our core — the silhouettes, constructions, and details that shaped GURANDA from the very beginning — and show how they have evolved alongside us.”

The release is defined by structured dresses with accentuated hip lines, pronounced waists, and strong, sculpted shoulders that clearly frame the figure. Corsets remain the central element of the looks, emphasizing the architectural nature of each construction. Textures play a significant role: velvet, rhinestones, quilted patterns, and richly textured fabrics create visual depth and contrast. A palette of black, ivory, and deep blue, complemented by metallic beads and light-reflecting details, enhances GURANDA’s dramatic evening aesthetic.

The key look of the collection is an ivory maxi dress featuring the brand’s iconic peplum with decorative garter details. Crafted from a new fabric with a floral embossed texture, the dress combines corsetry elements, sculptural form, and rich surface detailing. The peplum with garters — one of the brand’s most recognizable signatures — accentuates the waist and hips, emphasizing the hourglass silhouette that forms the core of GURANDA’s DNA.

The Suite No.X will be presented outside the framework of a traditional runway show, in the form of a spatial installation during Ukrainian Fashion Week FW26–27. Through light, space, and the sequential transformation of looks, GURANDA turns its archive into a living, dynamic composition. The looks are styled with refined jewelry by VENSA, whose delicate designs highlight the collection’s sculptural silhouettes and sophisticated femininity. The presentation becomes an immersive environment where past and present coexist, reinforcing the continuity and strength of the brand’s visual language.
