Is it worth saying that things with national color and symbolism are currently in the "top" of wardrobes throughout Ukraine?! Probably not. Just as it is not worth calling reasons for this. Undoubtedly, every nation has its own traditions in clothing, but probably only Ukrainian shirts carry a patriotic sacred meaning at the same time. Designers include elements of traditional national styles, colors, and embroidery in their collections. However, they are all forced to admit: nothing can compare to a real Ukrainian vyshyvanka. For a long time, vyshyvanka was made mainly of linen, cotton homespun cloth, less often - from hemp. An embroidered shirt was necessarily decorated with an embroidery pattern on the sleeves, collar, etc.
It is worth noting that the variety of fabrics presented today allows the buyer to choose an inexpensive vyshyvanka from natural raw materials, synthetic materials, or in general, their harmonious combinations. Making vyshyvanka is a business that requires diligence, sophistication and extraordinary patience, so it took years to teach girls all the tricks of this colorful craft. Thus, the young bride had to embroider a shirt not only for her chosen one, but also for his parents. Also, of course, she had to prepare clothes for herself, which after the wedding festivities would become a talisman - to be carefully preserved throughout her life.
Vyshyvanka is not just a shirt, it is sacred clothing made of natural material, embroidered in a special way. The ornaments embroidered on the shirt are numerous and diverse. In them you can see a reflection of certain historical and national features, they make each embroidered shirt literally closer to both the body and the spirit. In the assortment of embroidered shirts in our online store you can see a great variety in the themes of patterns: “Poppies”, “Lily”, “Flower Wreath” – for the fair sex; stylish “Cossack”, “Lord”, “Zaporozhye” – for true patriot men.
After all, embroidery is simply a stylish and modern choice. Who said that an element of the national costume cannot be worn everyday? Nonsense! Embroidery will go perfectly with a skirt, with trousers, and will suit a man, a woman, and, of course, a child.
