The Ukrainian Fashion Week (UFW) autumn–winter 2026–2027 season begins in Kyiv on March 12 and will run until March 15, bringing together more than 40 Ukrainian brands.
Designers will present their collections through runway shows, presentations and trade show formats.
“Ukrainian designers today are not only creating collections — they are thinking about the future, ensuring the development of the industry in the country, and proving that Ukrainian fashion is an integral part of the global professional context. That is why each collection this season has special significance,” said Iryna Danilevska, co-founder and CEO of Ukrainian Fashion Week.
The season highlights sustainable and innovative approaches by Ukrainian designers working under the conditions of Russia’s full-scale war.
As part of the program, the Art of Fashion: Sustainable Innovations exhibition will be held at Mystetskyi Arsenal. Brands including BEVZA, J'AMEMME, KSENIASCHNAIDER, LITKOVSKA, NADYA DZYAK, OMELIA, PLNGNS, TG Botanical and UPSLOWUSE will present designs created using upcycling, recycling, zero-waste techniques and innovative materials.
One of the exhibits is an outfit by Nadya Dzyak, Ukrainian fashion designer, created within the Kering S|STYLE – Denim Lab program with support from the Material Innovation Lab and curated by Georgia Cantarini.
The Faces of Heroes Initiative, a project helping Ukrainian servicemen with mine-blast facial injuries, will also continue during the event. Visitors can obtain invitations to shows in exchange for charitable donations. The initiative is implemented in cooperation with the YANKO Charitable Foundation.
An educational program will also take place during the week, with four fashion schools presenting their approaches and projects: KAMA, MODETON, School of Art x Craft, and UFEG Fashion School.
Organizers say the educational block highlights the role of Ukrainian Fashion Week in developing the country’s fashion ecosystem and supporting a new generation of designers.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
