Milk embroidered dress "Velina"
Dress that follows the cut of a traditional Ukrainian shirt, inheriting its length, volume, and wide sleeves gathered at the collar.
The fabric is soft to the touch yet holds the shape well due to its dense weave. The neckline slit is fastened with ties complemented by metal beads.
The pattern on the sleeves is inspired by ornamental samples collected by Hanna Hrabovska, a Ukrainian embroidery artist. It is made with light grey threads, a shade that was historically obtained from alder bark.
The dress can be worn on its own or paired with the Nevit dress, creating the layered effect characteristic of traditional Ukrainian attire.
