#DiversityFashion: The 15th Anniversary Season of Odessa Fashion Week was held in Odessa

On November 14-15, the luxury hotel Bristol hosted shows of Ukrainian and foreign designers as part of the 15th anniversary of Odessa Fashion Week.

The organizers of the 15th season of Odessa Fashion Week decided to move away from the generally accepted fashion canons and age restrictions by holding an event under the #DiversityFashion slogan. As part of the new season, 24 shows of Ukrainian, American, and Moldovan designers were presented in digital format.

“We are free of patterns that are losing their relevance around the world. Standard parameters are no longer the norm. We are all different, and each has its own beauty. And we, as the representatives of the fashion industry who create fashion and trends, must take into account the needs of the entire population…” the organizer of Odessa Fashion Week Zarina Semenyuk claims.

Among the designers who presented their collections on the opening day of the 15th season of Odessa Fashion Week were: ELSA FAIRY DRESSES, KIRA TAN, AKEL KIDS, NATALIIA RUDNITSKA, INSTITUTE OF MODERN MADAME & NI-TA by Nikolayenko Tatyana, POLIIT, INSTITUTE OF MODERN MADAME & TANINI PLATTIA, KORIN & KARI MODELS, KRUTYAKOV, CELEBRITY ROOM, CORELI (Moldova), ALEX TEIH & CHERVA BRAND (New York).

Young models from all over Ukraine conquered the audience with stunning looks from such designers as ANDRE TAN KIDS, MISS DM, TELL ME, IRIS ZINOVIEVA & JENNIFFER SCHOOL, I’M BRILLIANT & KARI MODELS, MISS HAPPY DRESS & ROYAL FAMILY MODELS, IRINA STRONG NUELVE & AMAZONKA MODELS, MAKSILIANI, ODESSA TECHNICAL VOCATIONAL COLLEGE & OZIYI MELANIE, BRIDAL FASHION & ROYAL FAMILY MODELS, NANOJY.

In between the shows, the audience could enjoy the shows of specially invited musical performers: Anastasiia Bukina, Kirill Gurskiy & Zakharova, Maxim Akel, and Igor Cheborak (Basso Production).
