1. Maison Kaleidoscope

Designed by Ekaterina Kambarova

Founded in 2015

The Maison Kaleidoscope brand was founded in 2015. The philosophy of the Maison Kaleidoscope brand is to change the traditional perception of knitwear through creativity, the use of modern techniques and high-quality materials. The brand has become famous for its long cardigans with a variety of textures and unique prints, designed by professional artists. A special place in the collection is occupied by exclusive models decorated with beads, pearls and ostrich feathers.



The creation of the Maison Kaleidoscope collections is closely intertwined with the work of the founder of the brand, Ekaterina Kombarova, as an artist. "Jungles" by Maison Kaleidoscope is inspired by the animal nature of a woman who can try on the features of different animals, a woman who is in harmony with herself and with nature.



Rich colors and animal prints were chosen to create the collection to highlight the strengths of the female character. Each print embodies the qualities inherent in a woman by nature itself: zebra - the spirit of freedom and dynamics, python - flexibility and mystery, leopard - grace and fortitude, birds and butterflies - weightlessness and tenderness. The collection is made of high-quality Australian merino wool, Egyptian cotton, Italian viscose and is decorated with airy feathers, embroidery with beads and bugles, as well as complemented by original brooches in the shape of animals.



This love for nature was visible in the prints for this collection, featuring palm leaves, leopard print and soft, flamingo feather pink. Meditations on camouflage were also seen, with many of the brands signature long kaftan-like robes sporting pink, green and blue camo patterns. An exotic and vibrant collection to start of the day right.

In the modern world, a woman can be not only a mother and a keeper of the hearth, but at the same time build a career, get an education, develop, learn to sing and dance, attend exhibitions, travel, devote time to her beloved work. All this inspired the designers to create their own brand. The main idea of the brand is multifunctionality.

This FW-20/21 collection is a tribute to the strong Yakut nature and its harsh climatic conditions, which formed the basis of the collection. Inspired by natural contrasts, national motives of the native Sakha people, developing in bright modern times, eclectic images of a soft and daring northern girl.

The ideological inspirers and creators of the kød brand are Olesia and Natasha. kØd (from Danish "flesh") - is an individual code of a modern person. Each element carries the author's personal details. Many products are designed to be worn in an inverted fashion. The main goal of the brand is to meet the needs of men and women, helping to create and express their identity, where inner you would equal the outer you. Clothing is, first of all, a symbol of belonging to one's inner sense of oneself as a Human.



Natasha and Olesia consider uniqueness, environmental friendliness, quality and a conscious attitude to consumption as their priority. Designers see in the future a synthesis of Man and Woman - two sexes in a harmonious interaction, equivalent and complete, in which there is no place for suppression.



The "Incarnation" collection is inspired by the classic men's wardrobe. Men's clothing is like a blank canvas: loose fit, straight silhouettes give room for imagination, allow you to introduce any print, play with the texture of the fabric and design. Therefore, the brand is not afraid to go against gender stereotypes.

In their collection, designers prefer simple and sustainable materials.



The idea of a Man runs through the entire collection as a constant thread. The collection is nostalgia, it is memories and ideas that have been accumulated to be realized now.



Suits adorned with giant bushels of flowers and hay, robes of deep red crafted from woolen strands and oversized puffer coats in a deep bronze color all collided in this genderless, avant-garde collection. Placing an emphasis on the sewing and stitching, with a red line running through all the hems, this collection was a find for any artist starving to express their creativity through their clothes. Abstract patterns on the cardigans, trousers and jackets and bold accessories (oversized fabric carnations, bucket handbags and hats and fascinators) made "Incarnation" a collection to watch and showed kØd as a formidable brand. Finishing the show off was an incredible patchwork dress that featured leather gloves, painted canvas and a variety of other eclectic elements.

The main feature of the brand is Lesia Paramonova's author's prints and the unique concept of each collection.



Curved realities, time loops, hypotrochoids and sound waves, mirror reflections, magic symbols and ritual dances, ancient rituals and the power of natural energy - all this is not a random set of words, but a summary of the new author's prints LES' by Lesia Paramonova.



The search for oneself through constant transformations and transformations, a complete fall to the bottom and an absolute ascent to heaven with a wingspan long into infinity - this is the Pagans collection.

The collection uses mainly natural materials. Cotton and silk fabrics are decorated with the author's magical prints by Lesia Paramonova.



Presented alongside a beautiful short film of women swaying and dancing in traditional folksy dresses, this collection embodied its title well - paganistic influences ran throughout the garments: floral patterns, ritualistic head accessories and new edgy tones of swampy greens and blues.

Designed by Lillia Kisilenko

Founded in 1999

St. Petersburg-based designer Lilia Kiselenko has been a key fashion figure in the Northern Capital of Russia for more than twenty years. The looks created by the designer Lilia Kiselenko always paradoxically combine the most seemingly incompatible properties and at the same time turn out to be completely harmonious.

Comfortable original cut of KISSELENKO brand models, impeccable line, harmony of proportions, traditional for Lilia Kiselenko, simplicity of form and strict graphic design are designed to make the center of attention not the suit, but the one who wears it.



Presented on a descending escalator inside an empty shopping mall, this elegant and classic collection showed a wide variety of dark and brooding looks in deep bordeaux, black and grey, with outerwear forming the crux of the collection. Suits and raincoats were accompanied by intricate cardigans, sweaters, dresses showing keen attention to the tailoring.

In SS-21 collection titled "Who are we today?", art & science laboratory of fashion artist Sergey Sysoev has developed a new method of personal self-identification using the unit of measurement of the latest anthropology. The unlimited possibilities of nano-staining of tissues of Academician Alexander Andrievsky became the beginning of a new art-scientific experiment. A hybrid of coloristic synthesis and the artistic world of images has become the basis for creating unique abstract combinations in which everyone can see their own space.



Self-awareness of new freedom occurs through the variability of the choice of shades and compositional combinations. Technological nanoscience of the last generation is embodied in the philosophy of changing all concepts and purposes.



Memories take on new meanings. The photo comes to life again in jersey jacquard, transforming into clothes. The bag transforms into a clutch. The plaid turns out to be a cape. The scarf becomes a slogan. The men's suit hybridizes with the sweatshirt, reincarnating in new forms. The women's suit flows into pajamas. The body has new elements - long sleeves, sweatshirts and hoodies. New comfort envelops with its shapes. Gloves and socks become a second skin. Lettering is embodied in incrustation and jacquard patterns. The shoe migrates from accent to transparent plastic, becoming almost invisible.



A multilayered collection, filled with forest pattern, deep palettes of fuchsia, cerulean and purples and free-flowing silhouettes.



In unexpected plots, hidden in complex color layers, the rose of the artist Elena Sotnikova, created in the style of intuitive impressionism, is hidden. Immersion in new worlds is due to her unique artistic technique.

A romantic and beautiful finale to this day of fashion discoveries.
