"Let's try on a hat, shall we? Look how beautiful! But this one is even better, let's try it on! Larisa Lapshina smiles as she watches the stubborn baby kick back from her persistent mother. Larisa takes out a magic mirror "ladybug" and the child, looking at himself, suddenly sees that he has turned into a berry, sun or flower - such colorful and funny hats are very popular with children, and especially little fashionistas. Larisa Lapshina's brand is called Happy Hats - "Happy Hats", and Larisa believes that her hats, which she loves to knit so much, will definitely be worn for a long time, cheer up and be inherited!

Larisa knits hats quickly: she watched TV, cooked dinner and did not notice how two hats were already ready. And, despite the fact that there is a crisis in the yard, her hats are sold out well, so you can’t relax, especially since Larisa Lapshina recently entered the Russian market, and there are already completely different scales. “There they tell me, well, bring about three hundred hats for a start,” Larisa smiles. - “So, what is the crisis here, we have to work!”

Not every person is able to so abruptly, categorically part with their past and start life from scratch. And Sergey Byzov made up his mind - he deleted 12 years from his life, which he devoted to the creation of Ukrainian fashion. And he left along the only path known to him - leaving no photographs, no videos, no sketches, not a single thing from the collection. Nevertheless, no matter how he tries to disown the past, his name is well remembered and not only by fans and those “close” to the fashion world. Sometimes you can even hear the suggestion that, they say, he will return to the fashion business and show a collection that can surprise and once again give food for talk about what Ukrainian fashion is.
