A long green dress dedicated to the life and work of multidisciplinary artist Paraska Plytka-Horytsvit.
The herbal shade of the linen hints at Paraska’s special sensitivity to the nature of the Carpathian Mountains, which surrounded her throughout her life. Floral applique on the fabric resembles fragments of leftover paper from the process of making “vytynankas” (paper-cut decorations)—a significant part of the artist’s body of work.
The high collar adds a spark of intellectual restraint to the dress. The sleeves are gathered with an elastic band, allowing their length to be adjusted. The piece is adorned with chest drawstrings, additionally fixed with buttons. This dress gently embraces the figure and gives a special sense of comfort and security.
Alexandra is 5'9”, and she's wearing a size S
