On February 27, 2022, during the Milan Fashion Week, in an event organized by B 20 events at Palazzo Barozzi (not part of the official programme), the Ukrainian designer Vel Yurchenko presents the children s collection of her brand By Vel, along four other designers. Most of the young models who walk for her are also Ukrainian. Each child wears a Ukrainian flag made up on the back of the right hand. At the finale of the show, two children carry a Ukrainian flag made from fabrics from the collection, to the applause of the room. The designer enters the stage in tears, carrying her daughter dressed in Ukrainian colors and cheeks painted with the national flag. Visibly very affected, she left quickly after the end of the show, while most of the other designers present stayed to expand their network. Two other Ukrainian designers were supposed to participate in this event but had to cancel their participation because of the war in their country.
