Stylist Lisa Ostanina 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 Lisa Ostanina, a stylist. She told about things borrowed from her mother from the 80s, her love for monochrome outfits and simple silhouettes, and how skinny jeans became a move.
Fashion has held an important place in my life for too long. While the children at school were drawing portraits of mothers and landscapes, I invented clothes that I later sewed for dolls from curtains. At seventeen I had already styled, shot street style for my own project, wrote and made reports from fashion weeks in Moscow and Kiev. Now I care about fashion as an art, at a deeper level than just my outfits. I treat street style as a movement warmly: the streets sometimes inspire more than the shows at the Grand Palais in Paris. There are a lot of interesting things around to take your appearance too seriously: a little self-irony never hurts.
American Apparel bodysuit, adidas sweatpants, Topshop shoes
I love body, especially from American Apparel. True, it is dangerous to wear it because of the deep cut. I wear it rarely and with anti-sexual things like adidas sweatpants or school trousers. "Adidasy" bought in Voronezh to match. However, I got used to them so much that I will definitely take with me to Paris Fashion Week. Beautiful sweatpants.
Shoes - forced purchase. The previous ones collapsed during the walk, so I had to go to Topshop and buy these to continue the evening. I can say that shoes are better than black rough shoes, have not yet been invented. Especially in a typical combination with a feminine dress.
Vintage jeans jacket, Acne jeans, Jeffrey Campbell shoes
This vintage jacket with hand embroidery is definitely the coolest and favorite thing in my wardrobe. I bought it in Moscow in Oldich Dress & Drink, when it was still open on Bolshaya Dmitrovka. The jacket is a star: she is photographed all the time, she always receives a bunch of compliments from stylists and editors. In addition, she is happy: every time I go out in her, something cool happens. For jeans, thanks to the beloved "Kuznetsky Bridge 20" and super sales. During her time, Acne found her ideally sitting for a penny - this is a victory. In addition, skinny gradually become a move for me.
Zara jacket, Versace x H & M dress, New Balance sneakers
I dreamed of a bomber from the Versace x H & M collaboration collection, but they were sold out immediately. A little later, a friend brought me this kitschy dress with sequins, jellyfish, leopard patterns and landscapes - all the best is in it at once, as Donatella Versace likes. I wear only with sneakers and sneakers, so as not to look like a girl from the 2000s. These New Balance - the most common model 574, nothing remarkable. But in them, I quickly move around the city. I wear them and wait for the sneakers from the adidas and Raf Simons collaboration. I bought a jacket in Zara because I was frozen, and there was no superhero with a jacket. When drawing a picture, I became so fascinated that I customized this jacket, decorating my pockets with sparkles. I myself do not understand how it happened, and most importantly - why. I think that I was too imbued with the first collection of my new favorite - Moscow designer Tigran Avetisyan.
Top COMME des GARÇONS, T skirt by Alexander Wang, Zara cape, Versace glasses, Topshop shoes
Top bought in Moscow Leform, when they ended in the online store SSENSE. I love such things: simple and complex at the same time. I have been a fan of Rei Kawakubo since the beginning of the 2000s, when I first saw an article about her in my mother's Vogue. Rei Kawakubo is wildly talented, and every her collection or art project confirms this.
I bought a silver skirt a couple of years ago. It was the peak of my love for Alexander Vang - after the show of the spring-summer collection - 2013. He showed white color, glow-in-the-dark dresses and graphic cuts. Unfortunately, this is so far the best thing that has happened in the history of the brand Alexander Wang.
For these wild glasses Versace had to go to Strogino, but they are worth it. I wear a denim jacket with a hat and daddy for greater persuasiveness. Everyone asks where they come from. Insightful friend said that the glasses seemed to be Versace from the 70s. And there is! As soon as I put on, I begin to involuntarily hum to myself "Versace, Versace, Medusa head on me like I'm Luminati".
Maison Martin Margiela x H & M dress, Topshop shoes
At one time, I did not have time to buy anything from the Maison Martin Margiela and H & M collaboration. Dreamed of body and this dress. I unsuccessfully searched for it on eBay, but this summer I was incredibly lucky! On the “Lambada Market” I saw this dress hanging alone on the “Poster” hanger - there was no limit to joy. Martin Marzhela is another favorite of mine. Especially his couture collections and brand ideology.
H & M swimsuit, school pants, New Balance sneakers
I am one of the few owners of this "wetsuit", which still uses every second magazine in the shooting. He is cool, but I never bathed in it, because I can not imagine it. I wear it, like all crazy body, with school pants.
Nike top and flip flops, vintage pants
Passed in this form almost all summer: to the editor, to parties and to the store in the yard. Pierced with Parisian streetstyle and style of guys from Moscow suburbs. Mom's pants, she brought them from Italy in the 80s. Wildly beautiful and comfortable - much better than the annoying skinny.
Zara Dress, Jeffrey Campbell Shoes, Nike Socks
I'm sure that Sailor Moon, Princess Serenity in 2014, would have dressed like that. A few months ago I decided to change black to white: I went only in white things for about a month. I love monochrome and simple silhouettes.
These Jeffrey Campbell are a tribute to the wonderful Stella McCartney Fall-Winter 2013/14 collection. But I like mine more than Stella, who bought it in Russian stores for a couple of hours. Jeffrey Campbell, too, quickly ended around the world. I stood on the waiting list for a couple of months and recently I finally received a long-awaited box with a pink unicorn. Wearing longer than a few hours is impossible, but it is the only pair worth small beauty victims. At school, I collected wacky socks: with a superman, robots, space invaders, and all sorts of inscriptions - and wore them with everything. So I continue, just switched to normal socks Nike.
Vintage dress, Marni collar, Zara boots
The most decent outfit - and this, too, should be. I love this silk dress. She found it in my mother's closet and immediately took it away. It was also bought in the late 80s: Elizabeth from 9 1/2 weeks was running like a date. Collar Marni - a gift from a favorite senior editor. Insanely beautiful. Marni always has accessories and shoes. Boots "brand-who-can not-be called" too sunk into the soul - could not buy.
JNBY dress, Zara boots
For a while I adored the JNBY brand, and only JNBY or Maison Martin Margiela can make me buy a red dress. Specifically, it looks a little wildly, as I like.
Fur and ring - gifts, boots Zara
Favorite fur coat gave a friend with the words: "To you, it is more suitable." I did not resist. I love wild fur coats from faux fur. This year, she laid eyes on the British young brand Shrimps, they make excellent colored fur coats. I constantly leave my rings somewhere - it’s good that I don’t have Cartier yet. This ring is a gift from a friend and one of the few that is still with me.
Notebook and Maison Martin Margiela perfume
I'm a wild fan of all sorts of notebooks. I buy them without stopping. Making sketches in a white notebook Maison Martin Margiela is especially nice.
Books and music albums
I always carry my favorite books with me: Brodsky is now replaced by Bosch's album, as I am preparing for studies at the Faculty of Art History. I am an absolute fan of modern art, the future and futurism, but Bosch is one of the few artists of the past I love. The black notebook stayed after working in your favorite Vogue - I love this notebook even more than Maison Martin Margiela. Two albums of my beloved Kanye West - gifts from a friend from Kiev. I still consider "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" the best album of the millennium. My review of him was even praised by the guys from Pitchfork, so I can talk about it endlessly.
