Ruslan Baginskiy Haute Couture Collection “TSVIT”.
The 'TSVIT' couture collection is a cultural experiment, the experience of restoring forgotten manufacture technologies that were considered archaisms, and their introduction into the modern agenda.
Each of the seven pieces is a tribute to Ukrainian culture: the straw mask is a rethinking of the cultural codes of the 19th and early 20th centuries, when one of the most spectacular decorations for the bride was a wreath made from the remains of the harvest; gold jewellery - a deepening into the history of the Scythians, known for their jewellery craftsmanship; a separate source of inspiration for Ruslan was the work of the Volyn weaving masters of Khustka-namitka.
The poetic project is a collaboration between the Ruslan Baginskiy brand, Ukrainian fine art duo ‘Synchrodogs’ and stylist Julie Pelipas.
