On September 4, the final of the XXVI All-Ukrainian Contest for Young Fashion Designers “A Look into the Future” took place at the Bohdan and Varvara Khanenko National Museum of Arts, opening the new Ukrainian Fashion Week SS26 season.

This year, ten finalists presented collections inspired by the artistic legacy of Bohdan and Varvara Khanenko — prominent Ukrainian collectors and philanthropists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The young designers developed their looks within a creative residency curated by Ivan Frolov.

The runway looks presented by the finalists were brought to life with the support of the Contest’s beauty partner — LAMEL cosmetics.

We are excited to share the collections from the finalists’ show.
