As a sign of respect and gratitude, the Ukrainian ethnic clothing brand Etnodim has released dresses and shirts featuring symbols of countries that actively support Ukraine in the fight for freedom. The products are available in both women's and men's styles.
The project team explored the symbols of statehood and freedom of various countries, including the USA, the UK, Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, France, Germany, and Canada. For example, the dresses and shirts dedicated to the UK feature the Lion as a symbol of power, the Four-leaf Clover as a sign of luck, and the Tudor Rose as a symbol of the unity of royal dynasties. The shirts dedicated to Poland are designed in white and red colors and adorned with the Polish Anchor, the Eagle, and the Sigismund (bell), symbolizing peace.
The project team found representatives of eight countries currently fighting in Ukraine against Russia and gifted them shirts featuring symbols of their native states. In response, the fighters recorded video messages explaining the significance of the symbols depicted on the shirts.

The shirts can be purchased on the brand's website and in digital format through collaboration with the innovative platform DressX, which created digital embroidered shirts and presented them on its marketplace.
Proceeds from the sale of both physical and digital embroidered shirts will be used to purchase necessary equipment for the international legion fighters under the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
