Formula of Kyiv winter: a hat and a bright down jacket
15-11-2018

Visitors of Prospekt shopping mall tell about the ways they warm themselves

Are rolled up trousers and bare ankles still in fashion? Do we need a hat to feel warm or to make our moms calm? Why suede shoes are intended for princesses only? Is a dark jacket a necessity or a way not to stand out? Do itchy sweaters have a right to exist? The Weekend asked visitors of Prospekt shopping mall about the rules of their winter wardrobe.

Ania believes that in winter Kyiv lacks bright colors. He and her son Timofii walk a lot all year round and are fond of interesting colors and convenience.

“My ideal winter clothes are comfortable and convenient. I'd rather spend more money on branded items to wear them for more than one season than buy mass consumption goods. I prefer a warm light jacket, which I can put on immediately on a thin jacket or a T-shirt, I don’t like wearing one sweater on another. I buy Timberland boots - serviceable, comfortable and warm or quality original ugg boots. They can easily survive Kyiv winters, if you do not forget to use special impregnations.
I wear scarves, shawls, which can be wind around gently in winter, but I do not like hats. I wear mittens and gloves only when frosts are really severe.
It is noticeable that when the weather becomes cold, people in Kyiv most often wear dark monotone colors. Probably they feel more comfortable wearing them. I prefer bright colors and wear white and yellow jackets in winter.
