NEW YORK, Sept 14 ― Fashion shows rarely begin with a moment of silence, but that is what Ukrainian designer Svitlana Bevza did last night for her country to decry the Russian invasion.Bevza is an old hand at New York's Fashion Week, where she has appeared since 2017. She is based in Kyiv and has her workshops there but was forced to leave after the invasion in late February, and its endless explosions and sirens, to protect her two children.

Bevza's spring-summer collection, entitled 'Fragile motherland” and unveiled at a building on Wall Street, was highly political. The blue and yellow Ukrainian flag was projected onto a wall. “I was forced to leave the country with my kids. And my husband is at war,” she added. She presented tops that are sensual when worn with skirts or pants but still recall bullet-proof vests. Some look like shields that expose the shoulders and navel.
