Litkovska Fall/Winter 2026 at Paris Fashion Week

Litkovska Fall/Winter 2026 / FW26 at Paris Fashion Week

This season, Litkovska marks a defining milestone by joining the official Paris Fashion Week runway schedule with its Fall/Winter 2026 – 2027 collection entitled “FIREFLY”. Kyiv. Winter. Blackouts. A city learning new rhythms. A collection about the light that refuses to die.

As Liliia Litkovska reflects:

«There are nights in Kyiv with no electricity, no heating, no water. People move through the city wearing small lights on their heads. From a distance, the streets look like a sky fallen onto the earth — scattered with tiny moving stars, fireflies. This image became the soul of the collection. It was created in extreme winter — minus 30 degrees, in ateliers that sometimes had no power, in rooms where breath was visible in the air. But inside, there was warmth. FIREFLY explores the idea of an inner light that persists under pressure and connects people through uncertainty».

The atmosphere of Kyiv itself becomes part of Litkovska FW26 / Fall/Winter 2026 collection’s narrative. The city carries the scent of life — cold air, stone, smoke, and human presence — a fragile yet persistent reminder of continuity in uncertain times. This tension between vulnerability and vitality runs through the collection.

The collection continues to evolve LITKOVSKA signature codes, rooted in intellectual tailoring, architectural deconstruction, and transformative design. Asymmetry and the aesthetic of «unfinishedness» reflect the fragility of our era, where stability often feels like an illusion. The silhouettes create a dialogue between past and present, drawing on the expressive language of Ukrainian Baroque — from Kyiv’s sculptural architecture to the dramatic proportions of Baroque costume. Flowing contours and shifting volumes translate this architectural tension into garments. Central to the season is the introduction of the BESAGY BAG, inspired by the traditional Ukrainian “Besahy” — a double-sided bag historically carried over the shoulder for long journeys or market travel. Reimagined for the contemporary nomad, it evokes ancestral memory and the essentials carried across uncertain paths.

Throughout Litkovska FW26 / Fall/Winter 2026 collection, the flashlight appears as both a practical object and a central metaphor for direction and survival. When visibility is limited, one presence guides another. About the brand LITKOVSKA is a womenswear brand known for architectural tailoring that transforms with the wearer. Rooted in Kyiv and refined in Paris, the brand creates garments that can be worn inside out, deconstructed, or reshaped — reflecting its motto: “There is no wrong side.”

Founded in 2009 by designer Liliia Litkovska, the brand is stocked in over 60 retailers across 20 countries, including Dover Street Market (London, New York, Ginza), L’Eclaireur, and La Samaritaine.
