fashion: ulyana sergeenko

Words by MPDClick’s Trend Journal Editor.

Fashion Editor of Russian Glamour magazine Ulyana Sergeenko has long been style icon of ours and has now overwhelmed us with her debut collection for autumn/winter 11/12 further proving her fashion credentials.

Said to be inspired by vintage illustrations of Soviet Vogue, the collection oozes 1940’s glamour with ultra feminine silhouettes and considered luxe fabric choices. The press photos enhance the collection perfectly with a vintage style floral wallpaper background and whitewashed wooden flooring setting the scene for polished hair and rich coral red lipstick featured throughout.

Although 1940’s in silhouette, Sergeenko confidently contrasts this with contemporary detailing such as sheer fabrics, contemporary pattern cuts and Avant Garde styled footwear. MPDClick’s key items from the collection includes any of the bias cut paneled maxi skirts, slim fitting sweaters and the ¾ length sleeve grey fur outerwear piece.

This collection perfectly echoes the MPDClick’s trends team’s early trend musings for autumn/winter 13/14 of which we are looking Eastern Europe to inspire silhouettes.
