Wearing an embroidered shirt is always a holiday for me and a great responsibility. After all, the Ukrainian nation has struggled for centuries to preserve its authenticity. When I studied the history of Ukraine, I was shocked at how much blood your ancestors shed in the struggle for independence, the chef shared.

For me, vyshyvanka is a symbol of freedom, the victory of good over evil and unshakable faith. I have a lot of embroidered shirts from different parts of Ukraine in my wardrobe. Each “drawing” carries a special individual content, Kamaliya shared.
Natalya Mogilevskaya
Increasingly, vyshyvanka is becoming an attribute of the daily life of Ukrainians, and performer Natalya Mogilevskaya is very happy with this trend.
Vyshyvanka is not just a national dress, it is our history and a talisman. Once upon a time, for our ancestors, this was everyday wear, and I am very pleased that we are returning to this. Every year, more and more often you can see people in embroidered shirts just on the street for no particular reason, – Mogilevskaya said in a commentary to M1.

Vyshyvanka proves that history is not boring. In many countries, national clothes live in dusty archives, encyclopedias and museums. And we are always on trend. When you are a sexy kitty, a serious boss or a mother of many children. This is so cool! – Tsibulskaya shared with M1.
