There are plans to hold Lviv Fashion Week twice a year: in the spring and fall. Guests are expected from Belarus, Moldova, Poland, Russia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Croatia, the Baltic countries and, of course, Ukraine. Young designers will show their collections first, followed by well-known couturiers and designers, including Viktor Anisimov, Oksana Karavanska, Roksolana Bohutska, and Olena Dats.

The nucleus of Lviv Fashion Week is a project called Galician Fashion Seasons Line. Its main goal is to present Lviv as a center of fashion in Eastern European as well as to support new designers and offer them opportunities for creating and promoting their brands.
