Ukrainian wreath

Izydora Kosach-Borysova, 1899

The Ukrainian wreath (Ukrainian: вінок, romanized: vinok, pronounced [ʋʲiˈnɔk] ) is a type of wreath which, in traditional Ukrainian culture, is worn by girls and young unmarried women. The wreath may be part of a tradition dating back to East Slavic customs that predate the Christianization of Kievan Rus'.[1] The flower wreath remains a part of the Ukrainian national attire, and is worn on festive occasions and on holy days, and since the 2014 Ukrainian revolution increasingly in daily life as part of a wider cultural revival.[2][3]
