This season, the Ukrainian footwear brand Kachorovska is launching an award for young brands participating in Ukrainian Fashion Week.
"Young fashion brands are the most vulnerable to the challenges of war. To ensure that Ukraine and its fashion industry do not lose the next generation of designers, Kachorovska is announcing an award aimed at supporting their potential, future, and ability to develop under difficult conditions. The winner will be announced on September 4," says Kacho Group CEO Alina Ocheretiana.
"Our mission is to support the fashion industry in the country and inspire young artists who are just starting their journey to keep creating. It is important for us that the new generation of talents associates its future with Ukraine," says Ukrainian Fashion Week CEO Iryna Danylevska.
The Kachorovska grant can be used to expand production capabilities, purchase professional software, participate in international showrooms, access educational programs for designers and team members, acquire materials, invest in digital marketing, or shoot a completed collection. The winner will be selected by the Kachorovska team, led by co-founder and CEO of Kacho Group, as well as Kachorovska's creative director, Alina Ocheretiana.
