4. BITTE__RUHE (Moscow)
The young Moscow brand BITTE__RUHE took the audience on a journey through current trends - from soft mermaid dreams to dark medieval drama. The first part of the collection was a fantasy inspired by mermaid core - form-fitting floor-length dresses and flared trousers made from the softest fabrics adorned with shimmering sequins, lace micro-dresses, and maxi sundresses (all in popular shades of rose quartz and light turquoise), as well as pristine white ensembles with metallic accents. The second part of the collection was dominated by black, and the silhouettes were built on the idea of merging the unmergeable: dramatic lines of capes and maxi dresses with voluminous sleeves inspired by historical tailoring, but enhanced with sporty elements such as zip fastenings and drawstrings. A short black puffer jacket with a deconstructed fragment, a corset imitation reinforced this concept. Key accessories included snug cap net hats made of capron, which had recently become a hit on international runways. One of the models was the renowned actress Elizaveta Bazykina, who played the role of nurse Natasha in the acclaimed series "The Boy's Word."

5. KUZINA (Ulyanovsk)
The presentation of the new KUZINA collection began with a performance by the poet Marina Vernalis, whose work inspired the designer of the brand, Irina Malova.

The collection included sweater dresses, shirt dresses, sheer combinations, a series of coats in various cuts, capes, t-shirts, trousers, pajama-style sets, and sets with sweaters and midi skirts. The brand hosted an inclusive show and invited two models Martina Kalagina and Alina Husainova, who truly shone on the runway. Strong, statuesque, they presented monochromatic outfits with flowing maxi skirts and comfortable oversized sweaters. The girls had previously walked down the runway, but it was their first time appearing before a Moscow audience. The models' confidence was evident not only in their walk but also in their immense power.

6. IRMASARI JOEDAWINATA (Indonesia)

The mood of salty water and air was maintained by a delicate natural palette dominated by shades of pink chalk, gray sand, coastal stones, sea blue, and tropical greenery. The collection left a sense of freedom and lightness, despite its multi-layered nature: cocoon silhouettes enveloping the models' figures were complemented by airy scarves made of pleated silk; the same pleated silk appeared as the main texture in tops and dresses, resembling either sea foam or a blooming garden.

8. DMITRYKYDRYAVTSEV (Kaliningrad)
The main emotional source of Dmitry Kudryavtsev's collection was the Rorschach test presenting an idea that different people looking at the same picture can see something entirely different in it. Certain pieces were adorned with abstract prints, but the silhouette remained the focal point of the show - concise, elongated, accentuating the lines of the female figure. The main palette of the collection, including black, red, white, and silver, also did not detract attention from the form and heightened the dramatic effect. Sculptural jacket-dresses with deconstruction elements, trousers with high slits, "naked" tops adorned with shimmering fringe, maxi dresses with unusual cut-outs, and metallic fabric dresses enhanced with contrasting velvet ribbons that tied at the back were showcased on the runway.
