Dasha Selyanova, designer brand ZDDZ
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 Dasha Selyanova is the designer of the London-based brand ZDDZ, which we talked about in the heading "Fresh Blood". She shows Etro vintage, a Wu-Tang Clan T-shirt and a couple of items from her own collections.
Moschino shirt, dress of your own design, Chanel boots, vintage chain
Early Moschino delights and inspires. I am impressed by the fearlessness and humor of Franco Moschino and I like the fact that he touches social themes and largely reflects these themes in prints, ironically over fashion industry and consumerism. The print on clothes and its meaning for me are often almost more important than the clothing itself, because it allows you to establish more powerful visual communication with the viewer. This shirt is especially pleased with the naive "bad" typography.
I asked for shoes to bring a friend from New York. At that moment, when I remembered about their purchase, they were already sold out in London. And I really liked them, which rarely happens to me at all. He drew a smart design (excellent "take on classic Dr. Martens boots", Karl). Chanel clothes seem adult and boring to me, but the brand’s shoes and bags are really excellent.
Cap of unknown origin, Oxfam T-shirt, H & M top, jeans, Stella McCartney for Adidas sneakers, Yves Saint Laurent pendant
The cap went through fire, water and copper pipes - she, presented to me as a joke by a friend on the "British", moved with me from Moscow to London, witnessed the birth of ZDDZ and in general saw everything. She is also the star of every party.
T-shirt tells us "F Sports". Everyone understands the power of a sense of humor.
I do not remove the suspension. I bought it a couple of years ago in an online vintage jewelery store, and recently saw that H & M made an exact copy. Boooring, H & M, boring!
Etro Vintage Coat, Vintage Dress, Moschino Pendant, Nike Sneakers
Coat successfully purchased in a vintage store in Soho for $ 60. I liked the material - it feels like felt to the touch. Beauty adds velvet. Agree, the overcoat with elements of a velvet jacket works.
The suspension is actually a belt. But for me a massive ghetto-suspension is much more fun than a belt-chain with some letters, reminiscent of Chanel.
Fur coat from thrift store, Alexander Wang dress, Vans sneakers
I got a fur coat for £ 3. The lining and pockets were with holes, there were no upholstery on the buttons, well, the fur, obviously, had seen a lot in its lifetime. I paid for it and it will serve me for a long time. It was one of my first purchases after moving to Britain, and all purchases from this period are dangerous. London, of course, blows your head off, and at first you think what all is so fashionable and cool. It all ends with a wardrobe with, to put it mildly, a strange set of things, which, when clearing the mind, return to the charity shops, where they were purchased. But this coat me sweet and to this day.
Dress bought to go to a friend for a wedding a couple of years ago. As a result, I wear it almost without removing it. It is very comfortable, looks sporty and at the same time elegant - these are the three key components of the success of the dress.
Sneakers with leopard print - so far the only thing with a leopard print in my wardrobe. Leopard on Vans - funny, this is not a leopard on D & G. Well, you know what I mean.
Bomber jacket from Beyond Retro store, ZDDZ T-shirt, Comme des Garcons shorts, Nike sneakers
I generally love bombers, but this one especially. "Black kats football" on the back, red lining, ocher leather sleeves - together it works very well. When I trained with the stylist Rihanna in her English tour last summer, everyone checked him out and wondered where I had such a wonderful bomber jacket from. I said: "Rihanna, so be it, I will tell ... There is such a shop, Beyond Retro is called ..."
My favorite T-shirt is from the first ZDDZ collection. I loved her before Zebra Katz did.
Skirt shorts from the CDG store in St. Petersburg bought a very long time, they are 8 years old. Over time, I fall in love more and more. If I like a thing, for me it does not matter whether it is from a new collection or whether it is in line with trends - all this is nonsense, invented by marketers to increase sales. There are just cool things out of time. On the contrary, I get angry when you buy a thing that you like and sits on you perfectly, and in a couple of years you won't even find a similar one. Sometimes I buy a thing in two copies at once, if I’m sure of it. This approach saves time and nerves.
T-shirt Wu-Tang Clan, skirt Jil Sander, coat Vivienne Westwood Red Label, sneakers and Nike socks
T-shirt asked the rapper at a concert Wu-Tang Clan in St. Petersburg a few years ago. Our people are always simple and kind, and they gave it to me. The guys themselves did not impress me that time, because they barely moved on the stage. But I left with this valuable acquisition.
The coat is wonderful: asymmetrical, made of the warmest wool and draped on the back. The fur is still fastened to the collar, very comfortable and functional.
Skirt Jil Sander is almost 10 years old, bought it in the James boutique which has now changed its format on Tverskaya. It is a pity, by the way, that they closed, there was always a good selection of designer clothes. I love this skirt, one of my first acquisitions after moving from St. Petersburg to Moscow. She is burned with cigarettes in many places (and not with me), but I decided that this only gives her charm, and stubbornly continue to wear it. I recommend wearing such things with sneakers or rough shoes, or, in any case, with shoes without a heel, so as not to look like a real fairy. More fun to wear a pack with a t-shirt and sneakers than with a lace blouse and Christian Louboutin.
Neoprene sweatshirt ZDDZ, Nike bra, Nicole Farhi skirt, Nike sneakers
These sweatshirts from the latest ZDDZ collection are a very effective thing for going to the club, for example. When I saw this material at a fabric fair in France, I knew that it would be a great success. It is double-sided - orange inside, red outside - and with a special coating that shimmers incredibly beautifully in the light. I would not recommend wearing such items with bras made of lace - I add the Nike sporty top to it myself. In general, if there should be some fashionable recipe in this category, my, probably, sounds like this: a bit of sports in a bow will never hurt. NicoleFarhi silk skirt has a very simple design. But the fabric is tailored to the side, so the skirt is very nice on the figure. Also wear it with leather jacket, white t-shirt and sneakers.
