Turbo Yulia designer Julia Makarova 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 the designer of the brand Turbo Yulia, Yulya Makarova.
Clothes for me in the first place - this is the mood. I think my style immediately betrays a creative person: I love strange things, a kind of artifacts, behind which there is a story. I try to reflect, rethink the mass culture, stereotypes, clichés. I am impressed by notable characters who build a whole world around themselves and live by their own interests and strangeness.
For me, comfort in clothes is important, I don’t like it when something hampers the body. I buy things very rarely, and if I buy, I often rework for myself. I can go to the stores just for inspiration, and it can be points of workwear, military trade centers, department stores with goods for sports, something specialized. I usually take basic models in stores - I love Uniqlo for feeling there like in the world of the future, where everyone has long been wearing uniform of the same things.
Turbo Yulia coat, hoodie and ankle boots - second-hand, Levi's jeans
I made a coat of homespun rugs for an exhibition in London - one of them brought out from the workshop of Pavel Pepperstein. The coat is very heavy, but really artov. I have been changing jeans for a long time, since the days of the institute: this model is another experiment.
Denim, hoodie and avoska - from second-hand, Levi's jeans, sneakers Raf Simons x adidas, glasses Decathlon
This is my work bow - I feel like a worker in it. I loved the bag very strongly: it does not take up space in my pocket, but it always helps at the right moment. Durable and super-compact.
Jacket - gift, look out of second-hand, stitched jeans Denis Simachev, Reebok sneakers, Bezous bag
The jacket was inherited from the concierge Misha: he is friends with many neighbors and now even gives out presents. The thing specifically for trips to the store "White Clouds" and "Path to yourself" - it is easy to mimic under the local. Bag - friend and designer Ruslan Bezus with Ultraman print.
T-shirt Walter Van Beirendonck, stitched Denis Simachev jeans, STRD sneakers by Volta Footwear, IKEA bag
I love Berendonka for a long time. This most cheerful image frightens off evil people and gives joy to others - and is also great for a children's party.
Turbo Yulia dress, cap from second-hand, Nike Air Max 95 sneakers
I sewed this dress from a duvet cover that I found in second-hand. The Backstreet Boys group reminds of school when posters were glued to walls like on this print. Such an artifact is a great success, in general I love the aesthetics of the 90s for recklessness and freedom.
Turbo Yulia dress, Bartenev Animals hat, second-hand shoe boots, Decathlon glasses
This bow of the "Queen of Sequins" is a kind of festive camouflage. It was very funny when at the New Year's Eve party I completely merged with the interior of silver rain. The cap was presented by the beloved Andrei Bartenev - it was sewn from pop plush Mickey Mouse.
Raincoat and dress - Turbo Yulia, STRD sneakers by Volta Footwear, Stussy cap
Red dress - my rarity. It is made of D & G jeans, and its print advertises a chewing gum for a snow-white smile. Crazy, almost clown sneakers STRD bought by accidentally going into the UK Style, they make any image informal.
Turbo Yulia top, second-hand shorts, unnamed visor, STRD sneakers by Volta Footwear
Top sewed from the towel. At one time, I collected pieces of cloth with bright prints, capes, oilcloths, tablecloths, and made things from them — this one from the same series. The joke is that thanks to this top on the beach you can not take a towel - this is a two-in-one option. Visor bought in the hotel "Sevastopol", only later noticed that there are also sliding glasses.
Knit Turbo Yulia Suit, London Fog Trench Coat, Nike Air Max 95 Sneakers, Stussy Cap, IKEA Bag
Basic black trench bought on the "Finishing". He successfully fit into the wardrobe, and he also has a very soft surface that you always want to stroke. IKEA bags are my love, as I always carry dimensional things. The Air Max sneakers were presented to me by the Nike company - I myself wanted to take such ones, but somehow I did not dare. Because of flat-footedness, I spend 99% of my time in sports shoes and watch carefully to be as comfortable as possible. This model has a cool and soft climb - they spring when walking, which is very convenient.
Turbo Yulia jacket, second-hand hoodie, stitched Denis Simachev jeans, Nike Air Max 95 sneakers, Puma bag, Stussy cap
A road worker's jacket is the result of my hobby for working clothes. The most interesting thing here is the reaction of people, for example, at the airport, when they do not understand who you are and what kind of service you are. People are used to ignoring those who are in bright and acid workwear, and automatically perceive you as personnel.
Turbo Yulia raincoat, hoody from second-hand, stitched jeans Denis Simachev, Nike Air Max 95 sneakers
Rayuver rain cover with reflective stripes is a guarantee that you will not be seen in the photo from the party. And if you want to remove it, it will easily fit in your pocket. In general, I love raincoats, because you can not bathe with them, what to wear: the raincoat will close everything and help you look spectacular.
