Journalist Nastya Makosta about favorite outfits
FOR RUBBER "WARDROBE" we take pictures of beautiful, original or strangely dressed people in their favorite things and ask them to tell related stories. This week, our heroine is a journalist, editor of the Entertainment section of The Village and PR manager of the Arma team Nastya Makosta.
I am a fan of animated series, I even have favorite characters who have significantly influenced my wardrobe. The part is clearly guessed in some of my images. Often acquaintances (and even strangers) people tell me that I look like an anime character. I like it when the clothes show how the person lives in it: I love it when the holes in the sweaters are wiped, there are puffs on the pantyhose, spots of paint on the shoes. Therefore, I don’t get upset if I get into something. Things I buy most often on trips, second-hand, or online stores.
Second-hand dress, Paul Smith boots
I never wore this dress to the party, but I managed to try it on more than once at home. It's hard not to fall in love with it: epaulettes of tinsel instantly turn me into the captain of any holiday, and yet it desperately overflows. She found him in the newly opened second of her friends Oldnew_Moscow - the girls brought him from second-hand to Helsinki.
I carefully keep this outfit in order to dazzle everyone at the opening of the summer yard in my beloved and native club "Rabitsa". I have boots from ancient times, I am very careful with them, after all, this is a gift from parents. I take it out solely for the sake of such cultural events, where I will not jump on my legs. For example, in the theater.
Rick Owens dress, fur coat - gift, Topshop shoes
For some reason, he still hasn’t been wearing heels, although mom says that I like these shoes very much. This height is maximum for me. Dress Rick Owens used to be a turtleneck of my friend - journalist Seryozha Bagulin. Once, even while working at Interview, we arranged an exchange — I, in turn, gave Seryozha a sweatshirt of the same designer — and both were pleased with the acquisitions. The fur coat on the zipper was once presented to me by the stylist Gosha Polyansky.
Second-hand jacket, Reptiloids T-shirt, Levi's jeans, Converse x Comme des Garçons PLAY sneakers
I bought the clothes in Spain, and the jeans of my beloved 501th model - in the Parisian second. Everyone who flies to Paris usually sincerely discourages visiting second-hand in front of the Pompidou Museum — she herself once left all the money there. T-shirt - merchandise group Reptiloids, in which my friends play. Lesha Khalasik, the vocalist of this group, noticed that the woman depicted on the T-shirt looks like me. I expected to see anything, but not Madame, who makes hara-kiri and defecates.
On the sneakers - a heart with the eyes of the beloved almond-shaped, painted by the artist Philip Pagowski. And on the line of PLAY brand Comme des Garçons I can only say that I respect her immensely.
Romper & Other Stories, Asya Malbershtein Backpack, Converse Sneakers, Baby-G Watch
I like the rompers, there are already five of them in my closet, but & Other Stories are my favorite, besides it is fastened with buttons on the bottom. As such, I went through all the past summer and more than once heard the question: "What are you wearing, in pajamas?" With my bags tight, I simply do not like them. I prefer to wear everything either in pockets or in a backpack. This leather, I got after shooting for Asya Malbershtein.
Second hand leather coat, Zara dress, Shanghai hat
Leather coat was a very good purchase in second-hand station "Sviblovo", although at his expense I doubted for at least an hour. It cost me only two and a half thousand rubles, but the effect was worth it - in the end it broke the storm of applause. I found the hat in some kind of market in Shanghai: I had to, however, bargain in sign language with the seller, but in the end I took it, if converted into rubles, for two hundred parts.
Parka Zara Denim Longsleeve Pelada, Dr. Boots Martens
This image is proof that it is not necessary to wear black to look heavy and gloomy. Somehow guys from Canadian techno-punk duet Pelada flew to Russia at the Neuron Lom party, and I drove them around Moscow. As a result, they gave orange long-sleeves in gratitude for a day spent together - we became friends. Now I wear it like a dress.
I bought a denim parka on sale in the Spanish city of Salamanca. People often ask what brand it is, and upon learning they never cease to be surprised - after all, this is just Zara. About "martins" in this category, probably, already everything that was needed was said: this is a classic of any punk's wardrobe.
Longsliv with the works of the artist Dima Red
Longslive with samurai gave me my Kiev friends Yana and Masha. When I came to Kiev, they ordered it from the artist Dima Red. Longslive made in a single copy - as unique as my wonderful girlfriend. In general, I want to note that, despite the political situation, our Moscow commune is very friendly with Kiev. We often visit them and constantly give presents to each other. I especially value our connection.
Cro-Mags T-shirt, Monki Shorts, Leo Malefica Sandals
I saw sandals in Leform, but, alas, I did not have enough money to buy them. I came home and found identical on Farfetch website, only twice cheaper. The merch of the hardcore band Cro-Mags was brought to me by a friend Mariana. It was worth cutting it like a top - and it is ready for the summer.
Bathrobe from second-hand sandals Alexander Wang
For a dressing gown with a Chinese dragon, I almost had a fight with a friend in a Parisian second-hand. Perhaps the favorite thing in my wardrobe, although rarely have to wear it. Sandals happily perepali me on sale. After each socks I promise to sell them myself, because they are wildly rubbed, but since they are also wildly cool, I try to endure the inconvenience.
Comme des Garçons Jumper, Topshop Skirt, Switzerland Sandals, Asya Malbershtein Backpack
This jumper is my victory: I searched for him for a month and finally found it in the showroom in Kiev. In it, I feel like a real Beatlejudice girl. Sandals snatched in an incomprehensible store in the season of discounts, having arrived at a jazz festival in Switzerland - and immediately changed shoes into them, throwing holey "Vance" in the trash. I am not renting the third summer, because it is in them that I am approaching the growth of my dream. Backpack faithfully serves me for the fourth year - Ace once again my respect.
Cape from Shanghai, Whistles pants, Monki top, Dr. boots. Martens
The cape was taken for ridiculous money on the same eerie Shanghai market, where I again had to bargain, actively gesticulating. Generally, the universal advice for everyone who goes to China: bargain. Any thing you can buy at least three times cheaper than the initial price. Bronze "martins" - a find with ASOS. On the shoes from last summer there were drops of paint, and I'm not going to scour them. These drops are once again reminiscent of the time when my friends and I turned an ordinary garage into a club.
Denim & Jeans - Levi's T-shirt Electric Wizard
Jeans bought at a flea market in Mallorca. Yes, she has a huge hole in her back, moreover, she doesn’t leave the feeling that she will soon fall apart - and yet she is very dear to me. I will not survive the loss, so I wear it without breathing. Jeans gave me my mother - we are of the same build, she is also skinny. The Merch Electric Wizard with the crucified daughter of Satan was given to me by Artem Stefanov, it turned out to be small to him. I admit that I don’t listen to metal metal, but after the shirt became mine, the album "Witchcult Today" became almost my own.
Perfume Montale Sandflowers, Montale Embruns d'Essaouira, Comme des Garçons 2011
Surprisingly, as much as I love these two Montale smells, I hate all the other scents as well. Sandflowers in general has become my calling card, and people constantly ask me about it, even on the street. Comme des Garçons 2011 is an evening version, it smells like leather, industrial glue and duct tape, while remaining sexy.
Accessories
I have almost no accessories and jewelery, and those that exist are more like a memory. I wear watches all the time, and these Casio Baby-G models are my favorites. I got a bracelet with porcelain kittens-beads as a gift from a former young man, I bought a gilded bracelet myself at a flea market in Barcelona, and this wooden garnet is a memory of Armenia and Georgia.
Ray-Ban glasses
Once in my childhood I managed to lose my dad's expensive glasses, I wear everything new neatly and in a case. Having cultivated an exemplary accuracy, I have been storing these Ray-Ban for three years now - and not a single scratch on them. Dad taught me to take care of my eyesight and, accordingly, to choose glasses with high-quality lenses, so I categorically do not recognize cheap plastic.
Merch
I have a modest merchandise, but I’m quite a collection, and most of the artifacts are gifts from my wonderful friends.
