Ukrainian designer Olena Reva has presented a new spring-summer collection, which she called “Awakening of Feminine Nature.” Her starting point was the fern flower, a symbol that reflects both inaccessibility and renewal. In the popular imagination, it appears only for a moment to remind us that magic is not outside of us, but in the ability to find our own harmony.

“In times when the world is constantly testing us for strength, a woman seeks not only protection, but also clarity. Self-discovery becomes an everyday and at the same time exceptional act – it combines fragility and endurance, doubt and courage,” says Olena Reva. In the new season, the designer turns to this inner movement: to the strength that is born not from external circumstances, but from the silence of one's own nature.
This image is developed in jewelry: gilded earrings and spiral-shaped brooches, reminiscent of the cyclical nature of life and the invisible movement towards the center of oneself. It is continued by the color scheme: silk dresses, trousers and an asymmetrical top in a deep green shade become an allusion to the mythical plant. The overall palette of the collection is designed in sandy, pink and milky tones, balanced by black and red – as a memory of the contrast of female nature. Two author's prints, created by artist Dmytro Kozynets, add a special mood to the collection: abstract lines that turn each corset into a one-of-a-kind, and a reinterpreted image of a fern, embodied in a delicate milk-colored shirt dress.
The collection also features sleek double-breasted suits, palazzo pants, draped dresses and Bermuda shorts, designed for movement and ease. All of this is not only next summer's wardrobe, but also a metaphor for the journey to a renewed self, to a voice that doesn't need volume to be heard.
