Ukrainian Fashion Week FW26-27 is set to take place in Kyiv from February 5 to 8, 2026, featuring 40 Ukrainian fashion brands in the official schedule across runway shows, presentations, and a trade show.

The official schedule of Ukrainian Fashion Week FW26-27 brings together brands that have been part of the fashion week since its very first season in 1997, alongside designers who debuted in September through the New Names program and finalists of last year’s Look into the Future young designers’ contest. This lineup reflects the resilience, continuity, and strength of the fashion community, which continues to evolve, nurture emerging talent, and shape the future of Ukrainian fashion despite ongoing challenges. Ukrainian Fashion Week showcases Ukrainian fashion both nationally and internationally, fostering a vibrant professional ecosystem and advancing cultural diplomacy.

This season highlights the sustainable and innovative approaches of Ukrainian designers, who continue to create collections despite the exceptionally challenging conditions of a full-scale war.

“At a time when the world is changing at an unprecedented speed and we are facing unprecedented challenges, Ukrainian fashion demonstrates the capacity for profound reflection, innovation, and sustainable development. Despite the war, Ukrainian designers today create more than just clothing — they shape a vision of the future where creativity is woven together with responsibility.

In FW26-27, we aim to showcase how Ukrainian designers are shaping the future of fashion through responsible production, new technologies, innovative materials, and sustainable solutions that respond to global challenges — from environmental to social. These are forward-looking approaches, created in Ukraine that resonate globally,” — comments Iryna Danylevska, Founder and CEO of Ukrainian Fashion Week.

From February 6 to 8, Mystetskyi Arsenal will host Art of Fashion: Sustainable Innovations — an exhibition showcasing how Ukrainian designers are redefining fashion through responsibility and innovation. Ukrainian brands BEVZA, J’AMEMME, KSENIASCHNAIDER, LITKOVSKA, NADYA DZYAK, OMELIA, PLNGNS, TG Botanical, UPSLOWUSE, alongside the UFEG fashion school, will present looks created using upcycling, recycling, zero-waste production, responsible material sourcing, and innovative technologies. Among the featured looks is a creation by NADYA DZYAK, developed within Kering S|STYLE – DENIM LAB, an initiative powered by Kering’s Material Innovation Lab founded and curated by Giorgia Cantarini.

Since the onset of the full-scale war, charitable initiatives have become an integral part of Ukrainian Fashion Week. This season, the team continues the Faces of Heroes initiative, a project supporting veterans with facial injuries. Designers and guests will have the opportunity to contribute to this important cause. The project is carried out in partnership with the YANKO Charitable Foundation.

During Ukrainian Fashion Week FW26-27, the Portrait Gallery of Defenders will be presented — a project honouring members of the fashion industry who have taken up the defense of Ukraine. The project enters its fourth season, presented in partnership with ready2wear.agency.

Ukraine’s largest fashion retailer, INTERTOP Ukraine, in collaboration with Ukrainian Fashion Week, continues the Culture of Design initiative, offering a young designer a UAH 150,000 prize and the unique opportunity to create a collection that will be showcased in a major retail store. The winner will be revealed on February 7 as part of the official schedule, highlighting the next generation of talent shaping Ukrainian fashion.
