This year, the Ruslan Baginskiy brand celebrates its first decade. Key successes over the years include winning the French ANDAM fashion competition, designing hats for Beyoncé and Madonna’s world tours, and headwear for the British royal family. These moments reflect Ruslan Baginskiy’s mission: to be the voice of modern Ukrainian identity on the global cultural stage.
The 10th anniversary celebration began in Paris with the opening of 12 large-scale storefronts and a corner as part of the takeover of the French department store Galeries Lafayette, and continues in his native Kyiv with a Thanksgiving evening.
“Every day, my mission is to show the world the beauty of Ukraine: to fall in love with our past and present, in my own way. I believe that when the world sees the uniqueness of our spirit and the originality of our culture, there is a desire to join in their preservation. Because we love what we are familiar with. What we feel. Thank you all for these 10 years,” comments Ruslan Baginsky.
The event provided an opportunity to gather friends of the brand, colleagues, and those who have been close to the designer and the team in Kyiv over the years.
