The cost of Zelensky’s suit: the designer shared the details

Suits for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky are made of Japanese materials, and their cost does not exceed $500. This information was announced by the president’s designer, Viktor Anisimov.

It is known that Zelensky wore a suit made of Japanese fabrics during a meeting with US President Donald Trump. The cost of such an outfit is about $400-500.

Viktor Anisimov shared the details during Kyiv Fashion Week, noting that after this meeting at the White House, the president’s suit became the subject of considerable attention.

The designer recalls that the development of the suit before the visit to the White House was a surprise and caused a great stir. On August 18, during a meeting in the Oval Office, Trump praised the Ukrainian president’s outfit.

He also explained that the three suits for Zelensky are made of cotton, linen, and nettle, and that high-quality materials can be expensive, but for the president, they are sewn almost at cost.

“The cost of a suit varies from $400 to $500,” Anisimov said, explaining that the final price depends on the number of details, such as pockets.

The designer also spoke about the preparation of a festive outfit for Independence Day. Initially, it was planned to create a blue suit with elements of national symbols, such as poppies or spikelets. However, in the end, they decided to prepare a black version as well, since the president might not like the bright color of the fabric.

In the end, Zelensky chose a black suit, but he performed at the holiday in an embroidered shirt. The final choice was made during the fitting, when the president finally refused the blue version.

Viktor Anisimov also pointed out the symbolism of the look for Zelensky’s meeting with Donald Trump – a trench coat and straight trousers embody not only elegance, but also an important political signal from Ukraine.
