Twice she wore clothes from the Ukrainian label Litkovskaya, by designer Lilia Litkovaskaya. When Zelenska touched down in the United States, she opted for an olive dress with a scarf that fastened around the neck. She accessorized with earrings and a pin from the jewelry label Guzema, in a collaboration with the label Gunia Project. The pin is inspired by a rushnyk, a piece of fabric that is embroidered with traditional Ukrainian symbols. Something to note: during her arrival, Zelenska held pieces of wheat, one of Ukraine’s main exports and a national symbol for the country. This comes at a moment when the Russian invasion poses a significant threat to Ukraine’s wheat harvest.

When Zelenska met with the Bidens, she chose a skirt suit of the palest yellow by Litkovskaya, along with a pair of heels in robin’s egg blue. The look’s jacket was double-breasted with a square neckline, following Litkovskaya’s signature geometric silhouette. Zelenska continued wearing earrings by Guzema and Gunia Project, the same ones she wore to President Volodymyr Zelensky’s inauguration in 2019.
