took the fashion world by storm, presenting his inaugural couture collection at the Hôtel de Crillon in Paris. There, attendees saw firsthand the incredible attention to detail and playful mix of fabrics that the Ukrainian milliner brings to his designs—from plush leopard-print bucket hats to sleek leather boy caps to checkered berets. But in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, he had to not only assess the best course of action to showcase his follow-up, but his design strategy too.
“The global lockdown made it possible to slow down, look around, give ourselves time to learn,” Baginskiy said in a statement. “I was always inspired by the energy of local workshops, where knowledge about ancient techniques has been kept for generations. There is almost no place for them in the world of high speeds. I want to preserve their artisan heritage.”This thinking resulted in a seven-piece collection—dubbed TSVIT—that echoes the wild, sinuous forms found in nature.
Working with photographers Tania Shcheglova and Roman Noven and stylist Julie Pelipas, Baginskiy presented 11 images that fully capture the extravagance associated with couture.
