Ukraine Fashion Designers Showcased there line of Clothes at The Plitz’s Fashion Week ,during New York Fashion Week-2015
Mrs Golda Vynogradskaya, a Designer and the founder of Fashion Globus Ukraine organized the delegation of Designers to participate during New York Fashion Week 2015.

n the most mysterious district of Kiev – on the Hem, near a mountain foot with the dense wood, there is a beautiful house. Unusual, almost mystical room in a penthouse – a real paradise for the artist. Through the open windows trills of nightingales flow and modulations of peals are audible. The amazing Andreevsky church is visible from here. Here, far from city bustle there is a sacrament of creation of magnificent dresses, here conjure with sophisticated dresses and create someone’s future fatal images.

Thinking out every image, I represent the Woman for whom it is intended. Each dress has the name and the wonderful female history. Let sceptics laugh and wonder my eccentricities, but each dress has the character and will get to that heroine to whom won’t simply fit, and will please. And the soul of the Woman and the soul of her dress are incredibly harmonious.

The dress will emphasize all advantages and its essence will twinkle with mysterious light. It serves as a frame to precious beauty of her hostess, without eclipsing, and emphasizing her charm.

ith each found dress, there is a timid offensive premonition of something incredible from which you feel happy and there is a wish to make happy someone else. Dress is as a prelude to Happiness.

Collections which you will see are weaved from admiration of female Beauty, embroidered with Elegance and spiritualized by Love. It is my fairy tale and my reality!

The Other Fashion Designers who participated were: Golda Kids Presents School Uniform Collection, Fashion Globus, and many more Designers,see it right here in our World Liberty TV, Fashion TV.

Growing up with his family in Orissa, on the East Coast of India, Bibhu Mohapatra’s appreciation for sumptuous Indian fabrics and vibrant colors began at an early age. This initial exposure to textiles and garment construction still inspires Bibhu’s designs and permeates throughout the collections of his namesake label. Bibhu moved to America in 1996, and after graduating from Utah State University with a Masters degree in Economics, moved to New York City in 1999 and enrolled at the Fashion Institute of Technology.

While working on his design degree, Bibhu honed his skills as an assistant designer at the iconic American fashion label, Halston. In his senior year at FIT, Bibhu was commended for his design skill and aesthetic and awarded the prestigious Critic’s Award for Best Evening Wear Designer. This recognition helped launch his career. After graduating, Bibhu was hired by Gilles Mendel, CEO of the iconic French furrier J. Mendel. Bibhu held the position of Design Director at the label for nine years, where his innate talent and sense of style were revealed in the cutting edge designs of glamorous gowns and magnificently opulent furs. Responding to the rapidly increasing demand for his work however, Bibhu moved out on his own and began designing custom couture evening gowns, cocktail dresses and furs for a select group of private clients in New York, Europe and India.

Bibhu’s eponymous label, Bibhu Mohapatra, launched its first collection during New York Fashion week in 2009. The brand is currently sold at Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus and select specialty boutiques across North America, Europe, Russia and the Middle East. To date, celebrities such as Hilary Swank, Gwyneth Paltrow, Glenn Close, Kristen Wiig, and Elisabeth Moss have all worn Bibhu’s designs, and he recently dressed the US First Lady, Michelle Obama. In January 2010, Bibhu was a finalist in the Women’s Apparel 2010 Rising Star Award presented by the Fashion Group International. In May 2010 he received the Young Innovator Award from the National Arts Club, and in June 2010 he became a member of the Council of Fashion Designers of America. In January 2011, Bibhu received the Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation Award.

Lupe Guajardo Fashion Designer from chile at Mercedes Benz NYFW-2015

Lupe Guajardo Fashion Designer from chile at Mercedes Benz NYFW-2015

Lupe Gajardo is an emerging fashion designer from Santiago – Chile. Despite of her early age and career, both the press and the industry experts consider her Latin American fashion’s “prodigy child”.

Any discussion of the essential characteristics of her fashion style and inspiration must begin with her native country of Chile, unfamiliar to the majority of the people around the world yet locally admired for its natural beauty and cultural attractiveness. She lived in the north of the country (desert), studied in the Coast (Viña del Mar, Valparaíso) and finally returned to live and establish herself in the Capital. Through this experience, she benefited from the cultural richness of different areas of the country, which inspirations are translated into her collections.

She launched her self-named brand in 2010 and immediately surprised the industry with her fresh and unique talent. Since then, she hasn’t stopped: 9 collections, Berlin Fashion Week, FTV’s top 5 trendsetters of the year, Santiago Fashion Week, collaborations with Diet Coke to design a special edition of the can distributed across Chile, interviews for Latin American Vogue and H&M Life. In early 2014, she traveled to New York City where she had an internship experience with the renowned Latin American designer, Sebastian Errazuriz

Lupe Gajardo’s distinguishing features are beauty; a sense of craft; a strong, confident silhouette; and the marriage of Latin American tradition with the avant-garde. But even more than that, it offers a fresh injection of Latin America’s energy, power and soul for the truly authentic, stylish and daring to experiment and feel.

UDIFU is a Shanghai-based affordable luxury brand of ‘ready-to- wear’ woman’s apparel begun by it’s founder & creative directive Zhuliang Li in 2006.

In classical China’s 2300 year core, there is a philosophy that man is an integral part of nature. A strong expression of this ancient Chinese theory is the human lifestyle following up on the rules of nature, combining itself with it’s subject on an essential, serene, and ecstatic order.

Zhuliang Li is so strongly inspired by this belief that he adapted it into his fashion by designing a unique ‘all-in-one style’, for all body-types, in subtle sophisticated detail with distinction in silhouette. Li’s design and style emphasize on the relaxed, spontaneous, pleasant awareness. When you put ‘OUDIFU’ on, you bring modern humans closer to nature.

In 1981 at age 11, Zhuliang Li, the 7th of 8 children, was sent by his parents to a tailor to learn the fundamentals of design. Zhuliang Li never went to fashion school. This was how and when Zhuliang Li began his fashion passage, detailing styles for various individuals, as well as face-to-face communication with the customer, bequeathing himself with a deep sense of consciousness for different female body type configurations…their shapes, needs, and wants.

Accordingly, Zhuliang Li, gained numerous industry awards including CQGC ‘Best Fashion Brand 2009’, ‘Top 10 Chinese Fashion Designers 2011’, and ‘Top 10 Fashion Brands Shanghai International Fashion Festival 2012’.
His retail stores number 250 in major Chinese cities and markets.

Zhuliang Li is also recognized for his humanitarian endeavors such as donating towards the relief efforts of the Great Sichuan Earthquake 2008.

The Mercedes-Benz Spring/Summer 2015 Fashion Week collection at Lincoln Center New York City was OUDIFU’s initial entry into the American Market as a mainland Chinese designer in the USA, bestowing the concept of ‘Elephants’ as a theme, to imply the connection between humans & nature, in accordance with the protection of vulnerable endangered species, that by protecting them, we save ourselves.

On February 16 at the A/W 2015 Mercedes-Benz Fashion
Week, OUDIFU made his 2nd presence at the New York Fashion Week, utilizing his latest theme, the extinct Wooly Mammoth, which once coexisted with early humans.
