PASESHNIC (Chelyabinsk)

The foundation of the looks comprised festive and everyday relaxed-style maxi dresses. The models were detailed with ruffles, flounces, lace, ties, and a plethora of small gatherings.

The runway show was enhanced by live piano music. The ensembles in the collection showcased a blend of 1920s aesthetics with ancient Egyptian influences, featuring metallic embellishments, symmetrical bracelets, and intricate cutouts.
