Ukraine Fashion Designer Uzun Vitaliy Now Making Bulletproof Vests in Odessa

In peacetime, Ukrainian fashion designer Uzun Vitaliy creates couture for women and men. But with his country under attack from Russian forces, he’s started fashioning new kinds of attire: protective gear for his country’s defenders. His Odessa-based team uses the same skills and tools for this new mode of production. While the result may not be as fetching some of their more stylish pieces, any one of the bulletproof vests they make may save a life.
