How to choose a quality piece

​Everyone has heard of vyshyvankas, but many people think of them as old-fashioned, something that has long had its day. Women, though, are paying more and more attention to these shirts and trying to work them into everyday looks. Embroidered shirts can be classified by the following criteria:

• where the opening is placed;
• the shape and size of the gusset, shoulder inserts and sleeves;
• the shape of the collar and the type of sleeve;
• the type of fastening.

However the embroidery on a shirt is made (by hand or on a specialised machine), it will look very stylish and bring out any look. The patterns and colours should be rich and clear, and they must sit well against the cloth.

Choosing something new is always difficult, especially when it comes to vyshyvankas — an original, stylish garment that brings out a woman's own bright style. For the piece you choose to become a favourite, it helps to follow a few pointers:

1. The cut should flatter the figure. It can be any of the available forms (tunic-like, with yokes, with shoulder inserts, with a one-piece sleeve), but the shirt should not cling to the body.
2. A blouse cut suits slim, slender women; those with fuller figures should choose the classic relaxed cut.
3. Choose pieces made from quality materials (natural linen or hemp cloth, silk or cotton fabric) that will not feel uncomfortable in wear.
4. Machine bead embroidery should be of good quality too, so the design does not suffer in wear or after washing.

A vyshyvanka is not only a fashionable ethnic piece but a versatile garment. An everyday look takes on new, stylish colour, and at a formal event every eye will be on you.

Classic white vyshyvankas go well with skirts, jeans and trousers. Embroidery on black cloth looks very striking. That option suits an evening out best. And shirts with an original cut will bring out even the simplest bottom half.

For anyone who loves romantic, delicate looks, a blouse with puff sleeves is the right choice. If your wardrobe holds plenty of office basics, a classic-cut vyshyvanka will be the pride of the collection and lighten a look that is too formal. The combination of an embroidered shirt and a high-waisted pencil skirt looks especially graceful.

A piece like this is a bright addition to a look in its own right, so you can do without accessories. Slender women with a narrow waist, though, can bring out the figure still more with a fine single-colour belt.
