Bartender Elya Vinokurova 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 stories related to them. This week our heroine is a bartender and an employee of the "Enthusiast" motor-cafe Elya Vinokurova.

Clothes change and grows up with me. Convenience has always been important to me, so I love loose fit and pockets. With shoes, everything is simple for me: I wear only sneakers or shoes, I have not grown to my heels yet. For a couple of years I have been thinking of buying shoes with a small heel, but I am postponing all the time. As a teenager, I opened vintage stores and the opportunity to buy "from the hands" - and this turned my world around.

I never go to the stores specifically to buy something - but I also have no unintelligible purchases. I give what is called a second chance, and usually I don’t return after them; although it happens, I still regret that I did not buy it. Hiking to my favorite stores takes a lot of energy and time, as they usually are in different areas, but I don’t like to spend time in walled-up shopping centers with white light either. It is very easy to get together in the morning, but sometimes, when I need to dress up, I can spend about twenty minutes on charges. I always carry a rag shopping bag with me, so as not to use plastic bags, and leave unnecessary things and shoes at the trash bin: I hang them and sign them.

Nina Donis hat, Patrik Ervell shirt, Enthusiast T-shirt, Lee jeans, Reebok sneakers, Clevermoto string bag

A very convenient shopping bag was a bonus to the Clevermoto helmet. T-shirt is made specifically for the three years of "Enthusiast" in the style of the spring-summer fashion show. I love sneakers and wear my third year: they are already full of holes and wrinkled, but I don’t want to get rid of them. An ideal blue hat was presented, and jeans were taken from a friend. Jeans, shirt and T-shirt - I almost always look like this, this is my working outfit.

Uniqlo shirt, vintage skirt, grandfather cardigan, Blundstone boots

If there were no seconds, I would buy things in Uniqlo - this is the only mass market that is close to me. I searched for such a skirt for four years and found it in one of the oldest vintage stores - the cult "Freak-dress coat". I rarely wear it, but this is my number one skirt. Cardigan found last year in the country. Dad asked to return when I get tired of the thing, but I feel that it will not happen soon. It was a grandfather's favorite cardigan back in the 80s, and now mine; I have never had such warm clothes. Shoes bought at the Fott store on the pre-Christmas sale. And in the snow, and in the rain, and in the winter, and in the summer only in them!

Franco Dress, Nike Huarache Sneakers

The dress bought almost spontaneously in Monoroom from our neighbors in the courtyard. There are a lot of designer clothes from Asia in this store, I don’t know anything about this Korean brand. This is my summer hit: it is comfortable to run in a dress, sit on the ground and even ride a skateboard. Sneakers - a gift. They seem to walk in soft clouds: legs do not get tired at all.

Shlitza Dress, Sergio Tacchini Waist Bag, Blundstone Boots

Another purchase in the Monoroom showroom of the St. Petersburg brand Shlitza. Dress for me is irreplaceable, despite the unusual cut and uncomfortable zipper. A plush, unrealistically capacious bag of the Italian brand was presented in a Cypriot secondhand.

Adobe Rose shirt, Memine shorts, Reebok sneakers

“Indian” shirt bought in the vintage department of the store “Nothing of the kind” while he was still on Fadeev street. Incredible colors and design did not give me rest for a long time, and in the end I took it after long thoughts. The shorts of the Italian brand were at first complete with a jacket - I got from a friend. Unusually bright for me, but great for trips to hot countries.

Jacket C.P. Company, Capezio shirt, Clarks boots, Mexican pants

I got a velvet jacket in one of the many "second chance" stores in Tbilisi, and in just six lari I think this is a success. I bought a shirt and trousers at our annual fair “Dazzlingly cheap”, and shoes were presented to me at the end of the same market. Woolen wide trousers of Mexican origin I wear in summer and autumn - I feel like Aladdin in them.

She sewed her skirt and shirt herself, a gift vest, Blundstone shoes

I sewed this shirt and skirt myself from scrap materials, and a vest in Oriental style was brought by a colleague from Orenburg - it is so bright and exotic that it always attracts attention. I buy socks only in Uniqlo: they have a very nice composition and various colors.

Vintage shirt, Lee Cooper jacket, Marks & Spencer vintage jeans

This gypsy silk shirt has an honorable place in my closet. British velvet red jacket is a very expensive gift for me. I, like the pleated skirt, looked for perfect light-colored jeans for a very long time and found EuroButik in the second. In these chain stores you can find very good things, and if you go before a new receipt, you can grab a 90% discount.

Sneakers Nike Air Max, dress sewed friend's mother

Sneakers bought in Fott with a summer super discount - always dreamed of "airmaxs"; wore the whole season without taking off. Unsuccessful washing turned into a disaster, they became small to me. Without despairing, I pulled out the insoles and put them on until now. I designed the dress, and my friend Nikodim's mother made it from an Ikeev sheet.

Enthusiast sweatshirt, cap - gift, Shu backpack

This cap was brought to me from the States - a very touching, gentle-colored souvenir with my name. Sweatshirt "Enthusiast" perfect colors made for the New, 2017. Backpack - a gift from a friend, it is convenient to take it in small trips.

A gift from an antique shop in Venice

The only beads in my box appeared recently. I really like the combination of orange pebbles and shabby silver. They say that because of the high humidity there, silver becomes similar to antiques in two days.

Badges

Most of my collection. These are mainly icons from the events of Enthusiast: birthdays, March 8, International Records Store Day, Baltika mototour, charity badge for children; there is also a wing with an Arrow and a black circle S-11. All made by Dima Pantyushin - the caster of Moscow badges.

Points Lois, American Optical and Cazal

Lois glasses are a valuable gift from a friend, a little wide. In order not to lose or break, I hung them on a string. American Optical is a cool old sunglasses company. Cazal - just perfect points.

Perfume

I seldom use fragrances, and I have only two of them. Perfume Christian Dior Miss Dior - a gift to Kati Yarmakhov, a long-playing floral scent of patchouli and violet. Perfume Andrea Maack Dark - a gift to Alice Kurkina, this is a unisex fragrance, in which coarse woody notes are mixed with citrus.

Hat - a gift

The hat of the Soviet era was inherited from a friend's father. Fits all outfits; in windy weather I tie a scarf on top so as not to fly away.

Favorite T-shirts

If T-shirts, then only released "Enthusiast." From left to right: 730 - limited edition for a two-year cafe with a print in a running style; T-shirt with the classic logo of "Enthusiast"; Baltic Moto Tour was released on a tour of the Baltics and a trip to St. Petersburg; Enthusiast Records - to the first International Records Store Day; the latter is timed to the hundredth in a row under the concert in the weekly Sunday column “Hello, Concert”.
