RUSLAN BAGINSKIY presents its Fall campaign featuring Oleksandr Rudynskyi

The Fall 2026 campaign featuring Oleksandr Rudynskyi was shot at RUSLAN BAGINSKIY’s Kyiv office. Each accessory was paired with a unique look to highlight the actor’s ability to transform — the very quality that inspired the campaign

Instead of building a complex narrative or intricate set design, the shoot focused on a series of intimate portraits.

According to RUSLAN BAGINSKIY, the concept of an actor’s transformation is further explored through headwear as a key element that can ‘change the mood, emphasize character, or allow you to discover something new about yourself’.

‘I really value the fact that pieces with such different personalities can coexist within our collections, resonate with completely different people, and at the same time bring them together. A hat can entirely shift the mood of a look — or even the way we perceive a person. There’s a certain magic in that transformation, and that’s exactly what we wanted to capture in the shoot with Sasha’, Ruslan Baginskiy adds.
