Student Veronika Harutyunyan 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 student Veronika Harutyunyan.
My style continues to take shape. It seems to me that fashion influences him slightly. For example, I liked the pants-flared and how they sit on me before they became popular and filled all the shops. The only very fashionable thing you really want is boots. I study as an architect-town planner, while working for three years as a stylist. Long could not decide which path I choose. In the end, I chose architecture and with the work of a stylist I’m finishing my work - but I don’t think that because of this my passion for clothes will weaken.
To be honest, lately the number of my trips has decreased - and, accordingly, there have been fewer purchases. Almost all the things that I purchased three or four years ago, I still wear. Going through the wardrobe, I realized that I have a lot of things from Zara - and this is a simple explanation. I lived for a long time in Kiev, where there is no H & M, Uterque, Uniqlo, Monki, and in Topshop a very poor choice. Mango and Zara took the whole brunt. Now I hardly buy a mass market, but the old one still does not disappear from the closet. Recently, I support Ukrainian and local designers - I admire these people. Many of them became friends when we worked together. I respect their work, so I try to get their things more often.
Mango pants, sweater knitted by grandmother, Kenzo sneakers
These are the pants that I took from my mother, from cool stretching material. I used to avoid stretch, but I just love these pants. They have a strange length and it is quite difficult to combine them with other things, but this is not terrible. Sweater - handmade, knitting my grandmother. I really love Katsagiki Hokusai's engraving "The Great Wave in Kanagawa". I have a sad story about how, having arrived in New York for a couple of days, I really wanted to see this picture at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and it was removed to the storehouse at that moment and was advised to come in a month.
Sneakers - a friend's gift. They were too small for me - after a hundred meters of festivities it became unbearable. I still tortured myself, so I like them. I signed up on Facebook for a lot of groups that sell unsuitable clothes. And in one of them, I bump into an ad: the girl sold exactly the same, but a size larger, because they are great to her. I wrote with round eyes - "Let's change." We have changed and since then both are very happy.
Zara overalls, Kamenskakononova bag, Gucci sneakers
I really loved the jumpsuits - they are comfortable and versatile. If you need to run away somewhere, then this is the best option, since you don’t need to think about possible combinations. Personally, I find it very difficult to find a suitable model - not everyone is sitting well. I bought this one with the highest possible discount. I wear almost without removing. Silver bag - from the series of charity project. Part of the money from the purchase went to a good cause.
Zara skirt, shirt of unknown brand, Prada sneakers
I found the shirt at home - its origin is unknown to me. Apparently, she is a man, I just love them. Socks - Uniqlo. I have a large foot size, so I can take socks in the men's departments. When I fill out a questionnaire when I buy, I always write in the column “What would you like to add to the women's assortment”: the same palette of socks as in the men's section. Prada sneakers are time tested. I can not part with them.
Second hand dress, Fiorelli bag, Play Comme des Garçons x Converse sneakers
The dress is a long-time gift, I think this is second-hand. I did not wear it for a long time, and then I thought that it was a great option for holidays. It shines beautifully and is great in photos. Sneakers - a birthday present. It seems that they were no longer produced and they remained only in some European stores. I think what to do with this problem. She really wanted a round bag of a rigid form and was looking for a similar one for a long time. At the beginning of summer for a birthday girlfriend gave me this one - I wear it every day. Friends give me the best gifts.
Petit Bateau jacket, Benetton skirt, Uterque shoes
Stripped vest bought in the transition to the "Pushkin", when they were still selling things. It is very warm, but the more you wash it, the worse it warms and the paler the strip. It cost about 500 rubles, so not so sorry. Jacket gave girlfriend. The warmest thing that I have, which recently happened trouble. After the washing machine, all the fluff got out of control - I almost burst into tears of resentment. Saved the position of life hacking - after washing, together with tennis balls, it turned out to be almost better than it was before. If someone did the same stupidity as me, this way can help. Skirt bought in the Kiev commission store Goodbuy Fashion. I myself sometimes put things there that do not suit me.
Skirt Zara, Top Next, turtleneck from the store "Dixie", shoes Kamenskakononova for Braska
A skirt came to me when they just started actively selling things from neoprene. I didn’t wear it for two years, I’m so tired of it, but recently I returned it to the wardrobe. I have so often with things. Turtleneck - a find from the "Dixie". I once went out of the house to buy water, and I also left the place with a turtleneck. There were different colors, but took this one. I think more back. Shoes seem cumbersome, but in fact - this is my most comfortable pair with heels. You can walk in it endlessly.
Coat & other stories
The only thing & other stories that I allowed myself to take on the set. Bought in Milan. I recently saw dealers with it for a price twice as high as I bought two years ago. Unfair trade.
Zara dress, Sleeper dressing gown, Chanel boots, Parfois earrings
Dress - winter, warm, comfortable. Dressing gown - the Ukrainian brand Sleeper respected by me. The founders Katya and Asya were the first to create pajamas and bathrobes in which you can and should boldly go out, which is already half the world’s doing - including me.
Shirt It's me Dina Linnik, Max & Co skirt, Saint Laurent glasses, Dr. boots Martens
Every time I put on this shirt, I get feedback from others. There was a moment when Pikov came up to me on the street and said what a beautiful shirt I have. In Europe and America, doing so calmly, but we do not. I really like the cage and pleating - in this skirt everything came together. The only thing I experience is that it is rather short for me. Long looked at these "Martin". I perfectly understand that this is not an extremely fashionable thing, especially ordinary black ones - and yet I have never had a low one. This is the best shoes for winter and in order to run into them to work and study on the slush.
Sweater tied grandmother, jacket Forever 21, skirt Dolce & Gabbana, shoes Zara
Jacket - my kind of only purchase in Forever 21, brought it from Washington. Not worn for a long time, just recently remembered. I bought it for ridiculous money in a thrift shop - it is very well made. The ideal basic thing, not attracting special attention.
RCR Khomenko shirt, Acne jeans, Marni shoes
I bought this item from Yasi Khomenko with approximately the same face as on the shirt itself. I already have a couple of them and I will not stop. Acne jeans can be tried to find in the second or to spend money once in the store itself, but it's worth it. They are of such quality that I have not bought new ones for three years. Somehow I got a job in Ukrainian Vogue as an assistant to Julia Pelipas. At the first shooting while dating, she drew attention to my shoes and said that she had the same ones. Then I thought: maybe it helped me get a place then?
Cardigan Litkovskaya, T-shirt Comme des Garçons Play, skirt Zara, sneakers Play Comme des Garçons x Converse
This is a cardigan, probably from a very old collection - I bought it at a commission store. I wear my third year and nothing happens to him. Not a single thread came out.
Tiffany and unknown brand chains
A pendant with an asterisk was presented to me by my uncle and his wife for their fourteenth birthday. This is a very important thing for me. Another decoration initially consisted of a cross, an anchor and a heart, symbolizing faith, hope and love. In general, the anchor was lost and I now say that there is no more hope.
Earrings - a family jewel, a gift from a grandmother
One earring darkened more than the other. They need to be cleaned, but they have a complex shape and I am even afraid to carry them somewhere, so as not to spoil them.
Badges - a gift and from the "Garage"
Green heart - a gift from friends, brought from Copenhagen. I cling it to everything that I want to turn into Comme Des Garçons. I really like the heart as a symbol, and the inscription on the “Garage” badge also made me crazy. It is very close to me.
Weepin icon set
Weepin is our project with Olya Malyshenko, our outlet. This is the first collection almost at full strength, plus a new “Eye” badge from the collaboration with Yasey Khomenko. We are preparing the next collection and do not plan to stop.
