The Green Dream with Dana Thomas

Society & Culture


My guests today are Ksenia Schnaider, co-founder of KSENIASCHNAIDER, a Kyiv-based fashion brand specializing in upcycled denim and creator of the demi-denim design, which has become a favorite of the fashion glitterati at home and abroad; and Ivan Frolov, also a Kyiv-based fashion designer who has dressed the First Lady of Ukraine and other celebrities, and whose brand, FROLOV, now produces uniforms for the Ukrainian military. I’m humbled to welcome Ksenia and Ivan as guests this week, as we approach three months since Russia invaded Ukraine.
