Elle Renata Kharkiv, senior fashion editor, 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. The heroine of the new material Renata Kharkov shows us the dress of the most mysterious Russian brand Bohemique, the mother’s vintage bag and a large collection of jewelry.
Bohemique dress, Casadei shoes
The Bohemique collections are something fantastic! This dress is from the latest, demi-couture. Here is everything that I love: a provocation, and femininity, and a hint of fetishism. There are stunning embroideries on it, and the fabric - neoprene - does not lose its shape, does not crease, and in general it is the best that they have come up with lately! I like to wear it in the afternoon with jeans and men's boots.
Casadei shoes sunk into my soul even at the presentation of the collection in Milan, they are incredibly sexy! When they already came into my hands at the shooting, I tried them on, and it turned out that they can not only stand, but also walk, and very successfully, and for long distances! Their fate in my wardrobe was sealed from that moment on.
Top Zara; shorts, vintage, episode; ankle boots, Corso Como; earring and cape, topshop
I bought this "cloak" in Topshop London, it looks like a vintage one, but it was made very modern: the fabric was first embroidered with sequins, and only then a print was printed on top. As my friend Maxim Agakhanov (PR director of the Topshop representative office in Russia) says, with what she don’t wear it, you immediately turn into the queen of the evening. I like to wear it with neutral things, like a white shirt and leather shorts. I bought the earrings there, in Topshop London, I found them the main stylist of the flagship store at Oxford Circus. Since I don’t part with Runa in the form of an arrow (I saw her from my friend designer Leka Gapova and immediately wanted the same one), I wear almost all the earrings one by one lately.
Episode is my favorite vintage store. When I am in Amsterdam, the first thing I immediately run there! They change vintage things to more modern ones. There I buy leather skirts, and recently I bought shorts - an extreme thing, even for me. Oddly enough, she perfectly got accustomed to my wardrobe and I wear them often enough.
Corso Como is a Russian brand, and the design is created by Italian shoe designers. All of their shoes are incredibly comfortable and I have two pairs that I don’t part with almost every day. I bought this one especially for a gray skirt (from another bow).
Blouse, vintage; cardigan, maje; bag, vintage; boots, Topshop; skirt, Bevza
For vintage clothes I am almost indifferent (except for Episode), I prefer jewelry. This blouse is from my mom's wardrobe, for me it is perfect! Transparent, as I like, and elegant.
A cardigan is just a thing! I bought it from the shooting in Podium Market and just fell in love with it! In Paris, everyone makes him compliments. My boyfriend first took a scolding of him a couple of times, and then we bought him the same. Often we wear it at the same time, it seems to us that this is very romantic :)
Acquaintance with Sveta Bevza began with this collection, I just fell in love with this "puppet" print and immediately wrote to her. The print always attracts attention, it scares some, and mesmerizes others.
I also have no particular interest in bags. I can wear one for six months and not bathe. I bought this on the collapse in Amsterdam for 5 euros. I was stuck there for a few days because of a volcano. My director once even asked me to go for a week of fashion.
Treads - an essential part of my wardrobe program: suede, heels, without a heel ... I bought these in London and my boyfriend calls them "pirated".
Jacket, Vionnet; skirt, asos; Clutch, MY by Aliona Kononova; shoes, Gianvito Rossi; clips, vintage
This jacket, I also appeared after shooting. I tried it on and fell in love forever. She buzzed everyone's ears about him and a few months later he was with me. Sits just awesome.
The first time ordered something on the Internet, so, for the company and from nothing to do. Finally my favorite latex is back in fashion! This is absolutely my calling thing, which I combine with strict shirts or a voluminous cardigan. Then she wanted to order another one so red, but they were all sold out ...
If there are perfect shoes in the world, then these are only Gianvito Rossi shoes. More comfortable, I have not met! And beautiful too! I plan to buy them in different colors. I was helped by the designer himself, who happened to be in a boutique at Santo Spirito in Milan, who helped me.
The clutch was presented to me by Alena, he is incredibly comfortable and at the same time very original. I took it to the first Prada show in my first fashion week - and the photographers just tore me to pieces. I remember how I posed, and my legs were shaking and my eye was twitching!
Most of all I love earrings or clips, I have a huge collection of them. These in the style of the 80s, my favorite decade, I bought at Portobello when I was studying in London.
Dress, SportMax; Clutch, Givenchy; shoes, Gianvito Rossi; ring, Andrey Yarden; earring, topshop
This dress is one of my favorites. I saw the shooting of our chief editor Lena Sotnikova in it and understood, I need it! In general, I love SportMax - elegant and very modern, in each collection I find my must-thing.
I bought this clutch from my friend in a shop in Donetsk. I am indifferent to bags, but this clutch is an exception to the rule. He has a very interesting color and I have not seen more such variations of Antigona. I wanted to buy him a partner, but so far I have not met the same special ones.
Earring, Andrey Yarden; Ring, Topshop; skirt, DOLLS; Top, Topshop; ankle boots, Corso Como; Anne Valerie Hash coat
My most important fetish is underwear, for me it is the most important accessory. Hence the love of transparent blouses and tops, this shortened I also picked up Rachel, I myself hardly paid attention to him.
I'm a fan of skirts! I probably have a hundred of them. This neoprene, it sits perfectly and does not wrinkle. The latter is very important for me, since I live practically on suitcases and travel a lot. I bought her at the first presentation of talented girls Leki Gapova and Camilla Bliner. I like the way they work and choose fabrics, and even if the thing is a classic silhouette, it looks completely different due to the modern fabric.
This coat was presented to me by my friend Lea. Ann Valerie and Leah chose him together especially for me. I adore him - he has a very unusual cut, with sloping shoulders, and lapels, as in a tuxedo.
Andrei is a wonderful person and a very talented jeweler. He used to make rings of tin and just launched his high-grade jewelry brand. All his things are special, and the rings seem to be magical - for some reason it is difficult to part with them and do not want to take them off at all! This is especially. I donned these earrings once and I wear them almost every day. Andrew does these things just like that, and sometimes especially for me.
Dress, Diane von Fürstenberg; coat, sportmax; shoes, topshop; clutch, Marni; ring, Alexis Bittar
The first time I saw this dress was at Harvey Nichols in London, from a distance. I didn’t even fit, I was a student and I could not afford it. This picture fell into my heart so much that later, quite by chance, when I went to DVF in Moscow for things to shoot, I saw it already at the sale, in my size. In it, I went on the first date with my boyfriend. It is very dear to me and I consider him happy.
Coat SportMax some space. Due to the nutria fur, it looks like hello from the wardrobe of my mom of the 80s, and is made of suede and neoprene itself. They gave it to me and it seems to me that this is one of the coolest things in my wardrobe. Another universal thing is the Marni leather and neoprene clutch. Everything fits in it, it is soft in shape and can be worn as you like. The last six months is my absolute favorite every day.
Graphic shoes are not very comfortable, but they look cool. Thanks also to Rachel, they are not at all in my style, but in the end they got accustomed perfectly.
I adore Alexis Bittar, in each jewel they almost certainly mix two types of metal: silver and gold - this is my favorite fad, I often use this technique in the shooting. Plus, the decorations again seem antique, and I like them.
Blouse, cos; skirt, Alexander Terekhov; sandals, Miu Miu; earring, Runa; ring, Andrey Yarden
This bow, as my friend said, is firm. So I was wearing on one of my birthdays, this day I remember with warmth, it was very cool. The skirt is from my favorite collection of Terekhov, I still regret that I haven’t bought the Harlequin print dress yet. I bought it in the showroom of "Rusmod" and just then we met for the first time with Sasha Sukhostat. My fitting shocked her and we still laugh at our acquaintance.
Blouse COS, which I loved very much before (for such things) and to which I lost interest recently. It is transparent, but at the same time voluminous, which eliminates all pornography. Well, or I just think so.
I bought Miu Miu sandals in Milan. They are already at the last gasp, but I don’t know where to find the same ideal ones. After one show, Olivia Palermo ran up to me and asked where I took it from. It was nice.
MaxMara dress; DOLLS sweatshirt; shoes, Sportmax; Earring Cuff, Amova Jewelry
I also noticed this dress at the shooting, I really got a mix of three prints: flowers and a leopard in front, and a solid cell in the back.
The sweaters were presented to me by the designers of the brand for my birthday, I myself would hardly have thought of buying it. I loved him with all my heart: firstly, he is very photogenic (Scott Schumann agrees with me), secondly, due to the fabric, he unusually changes color.
The shoes are also not very much in my style, but the color and deep neckline has subdued me. An aged silver cuff earring with topaz is another very "my" thing. Looks like antique, found on the ruins.
Jeans, Maje; shirt, Bevza; jacket, cos; shoes, Gianvito Rossi; Clutch, Givenchy; Basque, Bohemique;
I bought a jacket-coat many years ago in London, I remember it was very cold and I just bought it to keep warm. I still wear it. From my close friend is the same, we bought it in the same place with a difference of several days. She has the same longstanding love with him.
Bibi (Bevza) has great shirts! Sit like a glove and do not crumple! This is a classic, but with the right details: graphic edges and buttons fasten inside, not outside.
Baska from the second collection of the brand and has already become a hit brand and iconic thing. I don’t part with it on any trip: it looks cool with a cocktail dress, and with a full skirt, and with jeans. Always raises a lot of attention and questioning.
I wear mostly skirts and dresses, jeans are an infrequent visitor in my wardrobe. I bought these in the fall - my first jeans for many, many years. And, of course, appreciated them and carry them very often.
The Givenchy clutch is another thing dear to my heart. Probably one of the very first expensive things that I bought for my salary, as an assistant. He still had a long gold chain, in my opinion, I lost it. I bought it in the "Podium".
Decoration on the head, vintage; bracelet, Mawi x Disney Couture; bracelet and necklace, Alexis Bittar
I accidentally stole a vintage feather hat with a friend in a store in London. She hung it on the arm, and she slipped into the bag.
I don’t like bracelets at all, they always bother me, then I take them off and leave them somewhere ... And in general, they always seem superfluous to me. These beautiful, I even wore them, but generally have no applied character. I didn’t work with a necklace either, I hate them. This is the only thing, they gave it to me - and I am delighted with it. I wear it in the summer with deep t-shirts.
Rings from left to right: top Andrey Yarden, Alexis Bittar, Topshop, Alexis Bittar; below: Stephen Webster; Andrey Yarden (2), no name
Dandelion brooch, MY by Aliona Kononova
Earrings:
Top row: Topshop, vintage, Lulu Frost, Theo Fennell, Andrey Yarden Bottom row: vintage, Runa, Topshop, Disney Couture, Iosseliani
All my life I adored earrings, mostly large and long. Recently, I calmed down and mostly wear and buy something more concise, and also began to appreciate the ring. My favorite ones are the old black plastic Topshop, Stephen Webster, who had the same lost gilded pair, as well as the Andrey Yarden ring, in which I could go to sleep if I could. I bought Iosseliani earrings in Barcelona for the last money. I had to go to the airport by bus.
