Varvara Kotsubanova, a student of the Kramatorsk College of Technology and Design, won III place at the II All-Ukrainian Competition of Professional Skills in the specialty 182 "Light Industry Technologies" in the nomination "Sewing Products," representing Donetsk region with dignity.
The competition, which took place among students of specialized educational institutions from different regions of Ukraine, gathered 18 participants from 9 colleges. Its goal is to support talented youth, develop the professional competencies of future specialists in the light industry, stimulate creative potential, and exchange experiences.
Varvara's competition work is a women's jumpsuit with an asymmetric sleeve, decorated with hand-stitched embroidery, inspired by a series of limited edition t-shirts from the charity organization "Palai." This pattern is dedicated to people who have lost part of themselves while defending Ukraine. The created model has become a symbol of resilience, inner strength, and gratitude to Ukrainian defenders, combining creative design, technical craftsmanship, and deep social meaning.
We sincerely congratulate Varvara Kotsubanova on her high achievement and thank the teachers and mentors of the Kramatorsk College of Technology and Design for their professionalism, support, and nurturing of young talents.
This recognition is a testament to the powerful potential of the youth of Donetsk region and the quality of vocational education in the area. We are proud of the students who successfully assert themselves in Ukraine and shape the new face of Ukrainian fashion – stylish, bold, and meaningful!
