The show, held in Keiv, presented outfits for handicapped women and uplifted them in the process.
"People on wheelchairs, the blind, the handicapped should all feel accepted," said Ilona Slugovina , a 26-year old wheelchair ballroom dancer.
Disabled people are often considered a nuisance and withheld the right of public transportation, education, and more.
"It's sad," said Activist Larisa Baida. "It's a constant struggle, everyday they fight for their life."
