New season

Today and always Ukrainian Fashion Week is ready to support Ukrainian designers and continues to present collections beyond the concept of seasonality – No Season 2021.

We are offering to designers a fully equipped set for shooting, as well the opportunity to submit the video/digital presentations prepared by brands for Fashion Week. Twenty-eight unique shows from Ukrainian and international designers will be presented during the event.

Buro Creative Lab undertook the creative development of the visual concept of UFW digital broadcast: “Reflecting on the topic, in search of inspiration, we thought of the concept of “cyberpunk as a visual representation of meta-modernism”, as a look out for deceitful horizons of the future.

At the heart of our vision is the idea of ​​the evolution of fashion design in digital format. It is the new language of design perception, it inevitably layers over the basic concept new meanings, shades and interpretations.

We are interested in finding a solution to “digitize” the analog beauty of modern Ukrainian design. For us this work is a search for the most harmonious visual solutions that are in accord with the nature of Ukrainian fashion brands. “

New format

During Ukrainian Fashion Week, within the project BE SUSTAINABLE! Fashion Summit, a new format of the fashion show will be presented. The teams of the Summit, FFFACE.me and set-designer Love Curly are creating a unique AR fashion show for the sustainable Ukrainian brand CHERESHNIVSKA.

“For the first time in Ukraine, we will showcase the powerful impact of digital set for a fashion event. This is when technology will be used not only for creating a visual image, but will allow cost optimization for stage design without loss of its showiness, “- commented Dmitry Kornilov, FFFACE.me CEO of the studio of Instagram-filters development.
