VOGUEDIARY

INSPIRATIONAL RUSSIANS

I am absolutely in love with XVIII century and this is my passion. The way people looked and their style. Everything about that time was really perfect. I decided to visit a small fashion week by one Russian jewelry house. I was not really sure I would see something good, but I fell in love.

I decided to try something dramatic on. My make up was not simple - I decided to create something professional with a concealer and foundation cremes,also I used eye-shadows,special small brushes and other ,important, things. I found a cute 50's stylish accessory on my head and it completed my outfit.

                                                                               

Do not be afraid of smokey eyes! If you think it's ,too much, - just wear your favourite sunglasses and take them off as soon as you arrive at the right place. 

I walked in with my bestfriend. We were really early so there were literally no one! We got bored soon and I asked if Vika wanted to go backstage! I met my model-friend and she told me she knows some good designers. She introduced me Alice Maximova, she creates her collections with Andrey Kanunov- they both are so talented . Alice & Andrey were really busy with models and their make up & hair so they had no time to discuss with me something! I mentioned a beautiful hand-made corset behind her (models were not ready for the show so every dress was on special tables and hangers).
An hour later I entered the same room and everything was really different. I felt like I FINALLY GOT INTO XVIII century!! Models were wearing corsets, beautiful Marie-Antoinette inspired accessories and their make up was GREAT. Their faces were all white and they had sharp lines on the contours so they were looking really good. Also,their eyebrows were dark brown and lips had a colour of fresh cherries! If I were a man I would kiss any of them immediately!

 Do you get a connection between you,art and history when you see a Couture collection? I feel like I am a part of it. It is more than just watching. I get inside in every little detail, I deeply fall in love with every little pearl.

 That collection was my favourite ! I got obsessed with every single outfit. All the outfits were hand-made so they were perfect. Accessories completed the looks. All the girls - they gave me that feeling of XVIII century. I live with that feeling every single day when I look at my XVIII century inspired tumblr or my iPhone lock screen. I smiled because the whole process made me happy! Girls were such queens! They loved my glasses, I told them where I bought them and we laughed together (because I bought them somewhere in ghetto).
I was really excited for the show - but when it started I got my attention on Instagram - I had to upload tones of new pictures! The show did not impress me. Why? Because Alice's collection (which was made in collab with a famous Russian artist Андрей Канунов) was too perfect for that place. It did not fit in (if you know what I mean!).
I left that place right after that fashion show because I was impressed by the style so much!
I want to collaborate with Alice because she has a true talent.

  What my happiness looks like? XVIII century inspired outfits + perfect models + me ! True love.

Look at the details. The necklace was changed on another one with pearls,but I am in love with every single element of the picture. It is just perfect.

This jewelry house sells some good accessories - from Swarowski clutches to adorable necklaces and expensive rings! Everytime I visit that place I feel like I am in heaven because everything is really sparkly and pretty. Oh,I wish I were a princess and it was my kingdom!

 The jewelry house ,Estet, gave adorable accessories to each brand for its fashion show. Every necklace was so pretty! I wish I could have one! Someday my boyfriend will buy me something. He will.
