Children – as of January 4, 2026 (source: childrenofwarorg.gov.ua)

I am a means of communication. More important are the stories of children whose childhoods were taken by war. My memories are the only space where childhood remains safe. And I share this safety with those who need it. I am running from reality, so I end up facing the past. Facing my childhood.

That is why my fashion commits to the logic of a children’s wear: it transforms, changes, adapts to the body, just as we adapt ourselves. It’s hazy and twisted like my memories. Through my collection, I explore fashion as a space of nostalgia and presence, of quiet resistance and play, self-reflection, and escapism.
