Businesswoman Elizabeth Shin 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 a businesswoman Elizabeth Shin.

I became interested in fashion in my childhood: parents always liked to dress beautifully, despite the fact that we lived in Central Asia, and it was difficult to find good clothes. Subsequently, interest in clothing grew into an in-depth study of this area. I wanted to know how fashion affects society, lifestyle and culture. I started practicing fashion journalism, I had practice in publishing and received additional education in the British.

Over time, my attitude towards fashion has changed. With the development of blogs and social networks, everyone began to look about the same. Now I am calm about clothes, I prefer to buy online, I don’t want to spend time on shopping. I almost do not have spontaneous acquisitions, I think about everything, whether it is a thing from a luxury segment or a mass market.

Cloak COS, Zara Dress, Marni Sandals, Mango Earrings

I went to the store to buy a few T-shirts and, seeing the raincoat, I realized that I had long wanted something like that. I haven’t taken it off for the second year already, it’s pretty dense - it’s never cold in it. I like the sandals of this brand, but they rarely suit me because of the narrow foot. These sat perfectly.

Mango Sweater, Mih Jeans Jeans, Marni Sandals

And a sweater, and jeans bought in the resort town. This image takes me to the summer evening by the sea. As for the white color, I love monochrome, especially on vacation. If you look into my suitcase, collected on vacation at the coast, then 90% of clothes will be white.

Topshop bomber jacket, COS shirt, Uniqlo skirt, Prada shoes

One of my rare spontaneous purchases is these shoes. She came to the store for a gift to her father, but also came out with a gift to herself. They fit well and I like this beige shade.

All Saints jacket, Oysho dress, ballet flats from Israel, Mango earrings

Ballet flats are a gift from a friend from Tel Aviv. She bought them at a local designer’s small shop. I do not remove them from the moment they hit me in the wardrobe. I go to Oysho for pajamas and home sets, but it turns out that most of these things take root as everyday things.

H & M T-shirt, Custom Made Jacket, Jeans & Other Stories, Prada Shoes

I love jackets and skinny jeans. Most often on the street I can be found in this form. This jacket I sewed to order. Before, I often ordered clothes in the atelier, and I chose fabrics when traveling, passing by textile shops.

Zara jacket, COS denim skirt, Saint Laurent ankle boots

My wardrobe is mostly made up of neutral colors. This jacket is one of the last purchases: we walked with a friend in a shopping center past Zara, saw a thing on a mannequin, and in the evening on the same day I ordered it on the website. T-shirts buy different brands, but always in the men's department.

I love Edie Slimane and everything he did for Saint Laurent, despite the frequent scandals associated with him.

Zara jacket, Uniqlo skirt, Mango boots

I often hear complaints about the quality of clothes from the mass market. Either I am very selective, or I have always been lucky, but the clothes retain their appearance for quite a long time, despite the washing and dry cleaning. These are the only boots in my closet, they are comfortable, practical and fit well on foot. As for denim jackets, the bigger it is, the better.

Zara jacket, Massimo Dutti T-shirt, Mih Jeans jeans, Chloé sandals

These jeans I always wore tucked. Recently decided that they urgently need to hem, time was ten minutes before the exit, took the scissors and cut off the excess. Because of the haste of the region, it turned out uneven - I hope to get to the studio in the near future to fix it.

COS shirt, Sandro shorts, Calzedonia socks, Golden Goose Deluxe Brand sneakers

Parents, having seen these sneakers on me, asked why I wear shoes to such a state. It was difficult to explain that I just bought them. And my cat loves this couple: sighting finds it in the hallway and nibbles at the laces until it breaks.

Shirt and shoes - Zara, All Saints pants, unknown brand of belt

I understand that the future is for vintage clothing and that made from recycled materials. But so far my relationship with vintage does not add up. Being in Paris, I always visit the market of Saint Ouen, but I often buy interior items rather than wardrobe.
