Stopping spread of coronavirus in style is task of these Ukrainian mask designers

Fashion designers are treating the new facemask era as a creativity contest to reinvent the art of mask-wearing. And it’s no surprise. The recent, potentially life-saving addition to wardrobes is now an omnipresent element of daily lives. It’s likely to stay that way for the foreseeable future.

Ukraine, where the mask-wearing policy is a vital element to stopping the spread of COVID‑19, is no exception. It’s mandatory in public transport, buildings and businesses. Those who fail to comply with the rule can be fined between Hr 170 ($6) and Hr 225 ($8).
