RITO GROUP’s 35th Anniversary Fashion Show Held at Parkovy

On March 15, 2026, a fashion show exploring the themes of cyclicality and continuity took place at the Parkovy Convention and Exhibition Center. The event was organised by RITO GROUP, which includes the RITO and 91LAB brands, as part of the spring season of Ukrainian Fashion Week. This year, RITO celebrated its 35th anniversary. The anniversary show became a symbolic journey back to the brand’s origins and one of the longest runway shows in UFW history.

Half of Parkovy’s 1,000-square-metre Big Exhibition Hall served as the main stage for the anniversary show. The space was transformed into a fashion runway with a long central catwalk and audience seating arranged along both sides. The walls were decorated with RITO GROUP’s visual identity to create a cohesive overall look. The scale of the venue made it possible to build a full-length runway, comfortably accommodate the guests and maintain a clean, balanced composition.

RITO GROUP revisited its archival collections, early sketches and the designers’ original visual ideas. The team explored how concepts created decades ago continue to reappear in the present day, evolving with time while preserving their essence. The show was styled by Olga Halushka and directed by Olga Semioshkina, Chief Choreographer at the Ivan Franko National Academic Drama Theatre and an Honoured Art Worker of Ukraine.

The event featured a new RITO collection inspired by Sonia Delaunay, the Ukrainian-born artist who became a symbol of modernist Paris in the early 20th century. The introduction to 91LAB included the presentation of its FW26/27 collection, dedicated to the memory of Liubov Panchenko, a prominent Ukrainian artist of the Sixtiers generation.

Guests of the show included Nataliia Kryvda, Kateryna Osadcha and Yurii Horbunov, Inna Kapinos, Tetiana Honcharova, Violetta Fedorova, Oleksii Hladushevskyi and many others.

We thank the organisers for choosing Parkovy as the venue!
