The Ulyana Sergeenko Couture Autumn/Winter 2014-2015 Show, which featured an homage to Tamara de Lempicka’s « The Swans » painting in the scenography, made reference to Ukraine’s past, at the beginning of the 20st century, and Ukraine’s current political conflicts.
Other Ukraine–inspired collections : Gareth Pugh Autumn/Winter 2013-2014 (this collection was influenced by Ukraine’s warrior women of the Asgarda tribe), Jean Paul Gaultier Couture Autumn/Winter 2005-2006 (this show paid tribute to agrarian Ukraine), John Galliano Autumn/Winter 2009-2010 (partly), Prabal Gurung Autumn/Winter 2013-2014 (Ukraine’s Asgarda tribe inspired the powerful pieces of this collection).
