The art of presenting embroidered clothing in Ukraine (photos)

Ukraine treasures its clothing traditions very much. The exhibitions of vintage embroidered garments and folk costumes are often held in this country. In some cases, such exhibitions can be ordinary and even a little dull but there are exceptions. A few days ago Ukraine had an international festival of traditional cultures called “Ethnoworld”. One of the items presented at that event was a collection of vintage embroidered women’s shirts. The pieces themselves were extraordinary but the presentation was even more striking.

Embroidered shirts used for the exposition belong to the collection of Ivan Honchar Museum (Kyiv, Ukraine)
