Crazy and hard thing to do: a dress made full of gold austrian coins. http://www.worldwidehints.com/Tokyo+Gold+Coin+Dress.html Ukrainian fashion is modern and very elegant I think, but what did the college designers from Tokyo is stunning.

While London folk generally benefits from looking trendy, Kyiv street wear would benefit from some Gap simplicity. This way one flashy, but maybe nice and fun piece would not be "outscreamed" by others. Yes, people-watching is fun here in some ways.

While a lot of the clothes are terribly tacky and gaudy, it's so nice to see women (not all, but a large proportion) making the effort and showing off their figures in the brightest colours. It makes people-watching sessions a lot more interesting than it is in London or Paris for example where it's a little monotonous seeing people constantly dressed in black, baggy (London) clothes. (I speak as a deeply unfashionable English woman who preferrs Gap to D&G!). I think Kyiv fashion is a breath of fresh air.

OK I'm ignorant, BUT, I know that Milla Jovovich is Ukrainian, and she recently launched a label. Do you think this or will inspire young kids to dress more 'funky', or even, to start design? In Australia, there are a lot of young designers because there are many universities and technical colleges that offer fashion design. Perhaps a university with an arts faculty needs to take up the challenge? I agree with sergei that I think people here take great care to look STUNNING - the problem is that the clothes are often unfashionable compared to what's going on in western Europe on the catwalks. I worked with a Polish girl, who was transferred to Australia for six months, and she has the most wicked fashion sense, and she said that in the past couple of years, many young polish designers had become really popular. Perhaps that influence might come south? Dear olechko. OK I’m ignorant, BUT, I know that Milla Jovovich is Ukrainian, and she recently launched a label.

It HAS gotten a bit better here fasion wise but I wish that there were more stores with less expensive and flashy clothes that would fall apart after being washed 3 times! But it is awful nice to have fashionable handbags at decent prices. I liked your post a lot!
