Hello all fashionistas! Your fashion editor is in touch. There are so many trends and brands in my world that I decided to keep an online diary where I would take notes on the most important things in the fashion world. And although such diaries are often called personal, mine is open to all readers – so you are aware of the most important ones.

This week has been rich in fashion news – LVMH’s third-quarter report summarizes the year’s financial results by Alexander McQueen, Raf Simons and Ralph Lauren shows, as well as Fast Retailing. Bella Hadid’s festive look and British Vogue’s Queen II. Let’s not forget the new cover dedicated to Elizabeth.

You can see all this on our website and social networks. That’s why today I decided to collect other important news that you may have missed from the world of fashion.

Shall we begin?


Although the fashion month ended last week, the designers do not let us get bored and continue to delight us with new collections. Last night, the entire fashion community, World War II. He was shaking with excitement for the Paf Simons show, which had to be postponed due to Elizabeth’s death. Raf Simons presented 64 appearances on the podium, each of which was saturated with British punk. Provocative text prints, neon details and mysterious twilight by artist Philippa Vandenberg. At the end of the show, Simons, according to tradition, took the podium and … jumped to the audience and his friends.


Do you see shopping as a special type of therapy? Then I have good news for you. From October 12 to October 16, Moscow, St. STOCKMANN stores and online store in St. Petersburg and Yekaterinburg are launching the annual Crazy Days campaign. So you can go crazy this weekend and find great deals on the new collections of brands in all categories, from women’s, men’s and children’s wear to homewares. In total, more than 160 brands will take part in the action – from different parts of the world and from Russia.


Demna Gvasalia knows how to surprise like no other. Only a podium made of mud has value! Forgot the bag shaped like a packet of chips? But Balenciaga’s creative director decided to go further and set up a special department whose employees would only deal with such tasks. After all, according to the designer, “it’s much harder to do something dirty than it is clean.” So now you can find a lot of shabby clothes in the brand account.


Have you seen the movie “Autumn in New York”? If not, we urgently recommend that you rectify the situation. And if so, you’ll definitely like the new take from Russian brand To Be Blossom, inspired by the cult movie starring Richard Gere and Winona Ryder. The collection includes incredibly comfortable cashmere items that will definitely warm you up this fall.


Agree, we all need moral support and at least some support today. That’s why the project of the jewelery brand Moonka impressed me a lot. Kids decided to start Good Reads. If you did not skip literature classes at school, you probably read Dmitry Likhachev’s book Letters about the Good and the Beautiful. That’s why the Moonka team has put together a playlist of their favorite quotes. By the way, they are read by friends of the brand, such as actresses Liza Shakira and Nino Ninidze. So if you don’t know what to do on the weekend, we recommend you to listen to these really beautiful recordings.


The collections presented at fashion weeks in New York, London, Milan and Paris seem to imply that the main trend of the upcoming spring-summer season is transparent things. According to TagWalk, 77.3% of designers walked the runway in sheer fabrics. Take the shows of Acne Studios, Ann Demeulemeester, Blumarine, Bottega Veneta, Chanel, Courreges and Dilara Fındıkoğlu for example. Russian brands are also not far behind. Recently, Walk Of Shame released a new collection based on a rebellious mix of sports and evening wear. A sheer knit dress embellished with large sequins is already on my wish list.
