Here is how you can help Ukraine

When the war started, I messaged Elena Rudenko right away.

She is a Ukrainian fashion designer that I have known for years. Elena lives here in New York with her husband, but I knew her family was living in Kyiv. Sadly, this conflict impacts her business and personal life since her brand's clothes come from Ukraine. 

Elena decided to donate all of her sales to Unicef and Razom for Ukraine, and she is helping them with the logistics. Nothing is easy as you can imagine.

I am fond of Rudenko's work. Her creations, the fabrics she uses, and the finishing are all very impressive. I already had a couple of pieces from her brand. They are truly special. So it was time to get new additions to my closet. 

First, look at this beautiful versatile coat. You can wear it in different ways as you can see in the photos.

 I also purchased a two-in-one pair of silk pants. You can wear them when it's warm. Or you can add another layer of fine wool if it's cold. The best part? The detachable sparkling detail in the front makes them party-ready. It's such a fun product!

Fortunately, Elena's family is doing fine for now. And hopefully, this will end soon.

For now, you can support her work in many ways. Check out her collection in the Flying Solo store, located in SoHo, or browse Elena's website. Follow her on Instagram, too!

Once you purchase one of her items, I will help you style it at no charge. Just send me an email at hello@marciacrivorot.com.


I can wear this coat in three different lengths. If I open it a bit with the zippers, it looks edgy, too.

Old but gold. Here's my favorite coat by Elena Rudenko.
