Marking the fifth season of their collaboration, Copenhagen Fashion Week (CFW) and Ukrainian Fashion Week (UFW) are once again teaming up for the Spring/Summer 2025 edition. The collaboration also highlights the ‘Support Ukrainian Fashion’ initiative.
Ukrainian fashion brands J’amemme, Katerina Kvit, Omelia, Plngns, And Sidletskiy will unveil their SS25 collections on August 6, 2024 at Ukraine House in Denmark. The installation will focus on one of the oldest biosphere reserves on the planet and the largest protected steppe area in Europe, Askania-Nova which currently suffers from the consequences of the Russian occupation.
With an aim to preserve culture, traditions, and creativity in the darkest times, UFW uses fashion to speak about the daily challenges faced by the industry including thousands of workers working under challenging conditions – despite rocket attacks and power outages. It also emphasises on the difficulties faced by Ukrainians in their daily lives, states Iryna Danylevska, Founder and CEO, Ukrainian Fashion Week.
Cecilie Thorsmark, CEO, CFW, adds, the SS25 season aims to recognise the tireless work of Ukrainian Fashion Week in the face of relentless struggle and invasion. The edition will include dedicated presentations by five designers at the Ukraine House in Copenhagen besides the TG Botanical as part of its official Event Schedule.
