What to wear a vyshyvanka with
Would you like to know what to wear a vyshyvanka with? It is a stylish modern piece with a historical note that helps create an original look. In this article you will find out which clothing goes best with men's and women's embroidered shirts and where to buy them affordably with delivery across Ukraine.
What to wear a men's vyshyvanka with
Ukrainian folk dress can be modern and fashionable. Vyshyvankas have lately been a trend among designers around the world, and many collections in the traditional style have been created. Men's embroidered shirts look very smart and elegant, especially when you know what to pair them with.

Here are a few fashionable looks:
- Office style. A vyshyvanka suits classic business suits. It helps create an elegant look without being too severe. We do suggest wearing a cut with a high collar and a small opening that can be tied firmly under a blazer, so as not to break the dress code.
- Youthful. An embroidered shirt looks very good with simple jeans, which everyone has. They may be narrow at the ankle or plain classic — whichever you prefer. The shirt may be a summer one with short sleeves or long-sleeved if you have bought a piece for cooler weather. It also goes perfectly with a waistcoat, a biker jacket or a denim jacket.
Now for accessories. A vyshyvanka in itself already adds something special to a look and draws attention. If you have chosen a shirt with long sleeves, you can complete it with cufflinks. They should sit well with the colour of the embroidery. Silver ones are the happiest choice. An accessory like this adds elegance and brings out your taste. Cufflinks are best worn with a suit and blazer.
What to wear a women's vyshyvanka with
Women always want to be the centre of attention, so Ukrainian ethnic clothing — a shirt embroidered with patterns — helps create a genuinely on-trend look. Women have a wider choice of what to pair a vyshyvanka with than men. The most popular options are:
- with skinny or boyfriend jeans;
- with circle or pencil skirts;
- with shorts or breeches;
- with dungarees.
Women's vyshyvankas may take the form of a blouse or a tunic. The first is more versatile and suits most things in your wardrobe. A blouse embroidered with an ethnic ornament, for instance, completes a business suit or becomes the highlight if you are going on a date and want something romantic. A tunic suits slim women in size XS or S and fuller plus-size figures alike. It goes with jeans or leggings.


Skinny jeans bring out a slim figure and look beautiful with an embroidered shirt. You can buy a vyshyvanka with a deep neckline or with a high collar. The sleeves may be narrow or full with generous puffs. Boyfriend jeans can be paired with straight-cut blouses for a balanced silhouette.
The most alluring look is a loose vyshyvanka with shorts. This combination suits young women going on a date or out with friends. The shirt can be tucked in if you have chosen a high-waisted bottom, or worn loose — whichever is comfortable. It looks good with sandals, flat slides or fashionable summer ankle boots.
Dungarees are at the height of fashion too, especially in cotton and corduroy. The bottom half may be a skirt or trousers. A vyshyvanka fits into the look beautifully and adds a note of chic. On top you can wear a jacket or a leather jacket if the weather is cool. Practical loafers or high heels suit a look like this.
For a warm spring or a hot summer, this pairing works: a short-sleeved vyshyvanka and a circle skirt in chiffon or scuba. Together they look stylish and romantic. The accessory may be a headband with made flowers or large red earrings or clips, so you look a true Ukrainian.
