I can’t believe it! I’m the first here for now, and I’m Russian, living in Moscow. So, you are welcome, Sart! I’ve been following your blog for about a year, and I’m really keen on it. It’s very inspiring!
cool! you’ll definetly find a lot! I’m from Moscow and when I see another interesting outfit (what happens quite often) I always think about your blog. if you’re interested visit http://www.lookatme.ru/look (texts are in Russian, but the language of photography is an international language)
Yay! Going back to Russia last year and seeing all the girls dress so well inspired me to actually care about what I wear here in US. I’m excited to see what you find.
ps – it’s good if you can learn the cyrillic alphabet. It’s actually not difficult and won’t take you long. Russian is a phonetic language and it’s really helpful if you can read some signs especially on the subway. have a great trip!
I have lived in Moscow since my birthday (it is uncommon, because this city full of emigrants) and i want to tell you that Moscow is "black shoes city". No style. No interesting shops. I will be very surprised if you have 2 or more stylish fotos. Russian fashion week is poor show, not Milano or Paris. On the streets you will see a lot of ladies with d&g, prada, chanel logos. they wnna be glamorous…
Oooh I’m so excited ! Please make sure to shoot some students from MGIMO University (I’m one of them…) Enjoy your stay, you’ll see : Moscou is awesome ! I hope you’ll find the pictures you’re looking for !
I am incredibly jealous. I visited Moscow a few years ago, and Russian culture moved me deeply. Russians are a stunningly beautiful people. My only plea to you is to have an open mind about what constitutes beauty and style in Russians’ eyes; don’t focus only on those people who have adopted an understated “Westernized” look.
well, it is very interesting to see Your pictures from Moscow. except those girls, that i’ve already saw on ur page: Vika, Shakhri, Polina… who will be Ur next fashion victim? :)
Well yeah, I am originally from Moscow too, visiting approx. once a year, wonder if you found what you were looking for. There are plenty of glamorous women in Moscow, though not always stylish, often just rich and bling-blingy… hope you have better luck!

That’s exciting. I can’t wait to see if Eastern fashion is as motivated by Eastern style as Western fashion is, right now.
