Feel the spirit of tradition in a modern style — celebrate Vyshyvanka Day with Visit Ukraine. Learn about the importance of the holiday, the symbolism of vyshyvankas, and the new spring collection from VU, as well as special offers
Every year on the third Thursday of May, Ukrainians celebrate Vyshyvanka Day, a holiday that not only unites the nation but also reminds the world of the uniqueness of Ukrainian culture. It is a day when embroidered shirts become a symbol of pride, strength, freedom, and indomitability. They embody our history, the memory of our ancestors, and the soul of our people.
The embroidered shirt is not just clothing, it is DNA encoded in patterns, colors, and techniques passed down from generation to generation.
Today, the embroidered shirt is not only part of the national costume, but also a fashionable element of the modern wardrobe, harmoniously combining tradition and relevance. It is appropriate for everyday life, business meetings, weddings, or even travel.
