Grains de Verre Presented the Conceptual Exhibition “Path [to] Woman” at Ukrainian Fashion Week SS’26

The brand Grains de Verre unveiled its collection in the format of a gallery exhibition at Ukrainian Fashion Week. The presentation “Path [to] Woman” became an event that went beyond a traditional runway show, transforming fashion into a medium for deep cultural and psychological exploration.

Concept: “Path [to] Woman” was conceived as an allegory of a museum exhibition, where every guest embarked on a personal expedition through the multidimensional nature of womanhood. Four installations reflected diverse states, contradictions, and facets that together create the living energy of a woman.

The project challenged conventional ideas of beauty and perfection. While in love and jewelry we are accustomed to seeking eternal shine and flawlessness, Grains de Verre offered another perspective: true female power is born from openness.

• Sexuality knows no age.
• Vulnerability is stronger than armor.
• A woman’s “thorns” are as precious as her tenderness.
• Lightness is the result of discipline and pain.

Each exhibition hall represented a separate installation with its own profound meaning:

• Sex, Women, Jewelry
  Vitality beyond time. Female corporeality as art — provoking, playful, and desirous on its own terms.
• Cold Heart — the Most Fragile Heart
  About the inner parts we froze to protect. Yet within lies the true power of love and emotions.
• Your Thorns Are Beautiful
  An installation from the Spikes collection dedicated to the “shadow sides” of femininity — contrasts that together create a whole and beautiful picture of life.
• Pain as Part of Lightness
  Dance as a metaphor of life. Lightness and beauty are born from bruises, repetition, and inner discipline.

Each installation was accompanied by QR codes with interactive questions, videos, and personal stories of women sharing their experiences.

The exhibition embodied the philosophy of Grains de Verre: like women themselves, the brand’s jewelry is born from pure creative flow, refuses to conform to imposed standards, and always remains in the spotlight. The brand’s mission is to highlight the best in a woman and to show her how beautiful she is when she sheds fear.
