On July 26, 2025, in the very heart of Odesa, a new season of the SUMMER WEEKEND by OFD project took place — an annual summer event that, since 2014, has united designers from across Ukraine to showcase resort, summer, and capsule collections.
This year, the shows were held outdoors in a truly atmospheric location — the Odesa Botanical Garden, where nature seamlessly merged with fashion, creating a unique mood for designer presentations.
The project was traditionally dedicated to collections made for the holiday season: resort, cruise, and summer capsule lines became the main focus of the day.
SUMMER WEEKEND is not just about fashion — it’s about summer energy, freedom of movement, the lightness of fabrics, and visual inspiration brought to life through original looks.

Odessa Fashion Day continues its mission of supporting Ukrainian designers by offering them new formats for presentation and live interaction with the audience.
The summer season has once again become a space for experimentation, bold colours, new silhouettes, and creative approaches that shape the face of contemporary Ukrainian fashion.
