In September, the brand KSENIASCHNAIDER presented a new collection as part of Ukrainian Fashion Week. The No Fixed Norm line embodies the desire for ease and freedom in personal style and daily life. Denim traditionally takes center stage in the collection, while relaxed, vibrant looks—ranging from voluminous balloon skirts to bikinis and hoodies with denim prints—reflect the designer's love for thoughtful streetwear, deconstruction, and sustainable materials that make the pieces both unique and eco-friendly.

One of the most interesting elements of the collection is its reference to the mosaics that adorn Ukrainian towns and villages. These mosaic images were reimagined and recreated in weightless tops, skirts, and draped dresses. The photos that inspired the collection were taken by monumental art photographer Yevhen Nikiphorov.

"In a world where art reflects the essence of our time, the KSENIASCHNAIDER SS'25 collection becomes a poignant reminder of Ukrainians and people around the world who, amidst serious trials, piece together fragments of their lives... like a mosaic," notes the team.

 

The brand was inspired by the works of Stepan and Roman Kirychenko, Lyudmyla Yastreb, and lesser-known artists from Myrhorod and Sievierodonetsk.

 

 

"Ksenia’s unwavering optimism is showcased in feather-light dresses, tops, and skirts, hand-draped with tulle, presenting whimsical motifs, blooming trees, and picturesque landscapes," the brand emphasizes.

From September 25 to October 2, the new KSENIASCHNAIDER looks can be tried on in Paris.
