The collection’s aesthetic foundation is rooted in the stability and clarity of the square shape. an architectural form prominently featured across all BEVZA collections.
From evening to everyday elegance, apron dresses appear down the runway made from eco-leather, costume fabrics, and viscose, which exemplify the versatile fabric use of BEVZA’s designs. The cut is taken from a real apron to accentuate the metaphor of ‘we cook bread.’
The a-shape cut of the coats is inspired by the traditional 19th-century Ukrainian coat called the ‘kozukh.’ dedicated to supporting Ukrainian artisans, the ‘kozukh’ coat is handmade from sheepskin, and the ’tisto’ vest (Ukrainian name for dough) is hand-knitted to showcase the texture of raw bread, including the ‘kosa’ bread pattern (Ukrainian name for braid).
Building upon the brand’s iconic use of grain in their signature spikelet jewellery and bag hardware, this element takes on a new life in BEVZA’s designs as a clothing clasp holder as well as in their latest jewellery collection.
