now this, this is an outfit well-pulled off, authoritative, worthy of audrey hepburn and hubert de givenchy and cristobal balenciaga…. i really hate those shades, but the rest: she is a vision and she certainly wears her clothes, they do not wear her. well done. who is this person?
I enjoy the whole look, just the hair cut, possible it looks better from the sides and back and not,” I just put a bowl on my head and cut around it” love the necklace and purse -
A very personal look.I bet she has really thought it through. I don´t like red very much but that´s my problem. Somehow though this picture lacks effortless,something very important for me.
I wish I could see her shoes! She knows how to pose to show of the clothes she is wearing. I always wonder when I where a bold outfit if my makeup should be bold too, but I guess the sunglasses act as bold “eye makeup”.
Love the glasses and clutch, the red shirt is the real cherry topper! And look at her hair, all of it comes together well. I bet she’s into architecture heheh.
gorgeous pic but male breast reduction surgery may be in the model’s future.
Actually I love the look. Severe isn’t exactly a bad thing. Would have to experience how the clothing and styling interact with the personality. A little juxtaposition would be the cherry here.
If ever a look required lacquered lips and nails (red, blackberry, bronze, something!) this is it. Otherwise, flawless execution of a rather difficult look.
This look fascinates me. I love how the top is blousy and structured at the same time. Very powerful. Authoritative without being cartoonish or boring-conservative.
yeah this is Vika Gazinskaya!! There is so much drama in her but still some place left for the elegance and great sense of humour. I love the way she pulls off her own clothes, her fashion line is an essence of her own unique style!!
love the color, hate the hair. My college roommate got a similar haircut in 1976 at Vidal Sassoon in NYC. The hair just looks dated and ugly (I didn’t like it in 1976 either).
It’s interesting that she’s Russian, as my first association with the strong red with black is Raisa Gorbachev. But I’m seeing the return of strong colors with black in general these days, and I think this photo offers a good example of how it can be dramatic and effective.
Fabulous! I love it. The necklace is a perfect accent. Nothing out of place on this one, and she obviously has the presence to pull such a hard look off while maintaining her femininity. Wish I could see the shoes.
O.K. this look is fierce, but I just looked at the shoes she wore with the outfit in the photo so graciously posted by anonymous. Those baby blue pumps are a miss in an otherwise flawless look.

The hairdo has got to go. There is no sexy in that hair at all.
But I LOVE the rest of the outfit.
A shame, bc her hair looks so healthy, and I would kill for my hair to be like that.
