From October 23 to 26, Lviv will once again become a hub of contemporary fashion - Lviv Fashion Week returns, traditionally bringing together fashion shows, educational initiatives, art projects, and charity activities.
RUNWAY SHOWS
The runway program will open on October 24 with a presentation by Marta Brown Studio.
At the main venue - Barvy Event Hall - on October 25-26, collections will be presented by VOZIANOV, JULIYA KROS, STARCHAK, VBRANA by Svitlana Mykytyuk, Olesia HRYN, ATTIRE by Halyna Davydiuk, the Italian brand BALOSSA, and the adaptive clothing label ANOMY_garment.

CHARITY
In partnership with the Charitable Foundation 24, the event will include a fundraising initiative in support of the 47th Separate Mechanized Brigade, where long-time Lviv Fashion Week photographer Ihor Fedoriv serves. The “invitation by donation” format remains in place - access to runway shows and lectures is available through charitable contributions, giving attendees an opportunity to support Ukraine’s defenders.
KNOWLEDGE
Education is an integral part of Lviv Fashion Week each season.
From October 23 to 26, invited experts will discuss topics such as brand development, communication strategies, and business scaling in times of war. The educational program will feature the following lectures:

ART
As part of the collaboration with the Lviv National Academy of Arts, this season’s Lviv Fashion Week will feature the exhibition of contemporary three-dimensional art "This Is Not It".
The exhibition brings together works by the Academy’s faculty and graduates, inviting the viewer to immerse themselves in a world of sculpture where material and form engage in dialogue with space - and where classical notions of sculpture are called into question.
But this is not it.
The exhibition explores three key dimensions:
The Archaic - the primal, elemental energy of material;
The Plastic - the flexibility of form, movement, and transformation in space;
The Contemporary - a new perception of sculpture and its place in the present.
But this is not it.
Together, these dimensions create an experience that compels the viewer to reconsider what sculpture truly is - what constitutes form, meaning, and what remains merely a reflection of our own perception. "This Is Not It" is a challenge, an invitation to dialogue, and an exploration of what lies beyond the obvious.
But this is not it.
Exhibiting artists: Volodymyr Odrekhivskyi, Serhiy Drobychevskyi, Liudmyla Davydenko, Hanna Drul, Ihor Bereza, and others.
Curator: Kseniia Tsikhurska (art dealer, member of the Friends of Lviv National Academy of Arts charitable foundation).
The event is supported by official partners: Mercedes-Benz Western Ukrainian Automobile House and LEV Development, Lux FM Radio, Charitable Foundation 24.
