Ukrainians celebrate Vyshyvanka Day to preserve folk traditions

In Kyiv, Ukrainians wear traditional embroidered clothes to mark Vyshyvanka Day, an annual celebration of folk traditions.

The loose-fitting shirt, often white with geometric patterns embroidered around the edges known as "Vyshyvanka" is a beloved folk garment worn on special occasions.

This year’s celebration is seen as a symbol of national unity against the Russian invasion.
