Fashions by Valentina Kobtseva (from "Sputnik", November 1967)
"These
two ensembles are called 'The Red Devils' - the title of a silent film
about the romantic, adventurous days of the Civil War in Russia. The
jaunty hats are up-to-the-minute, yet they also hold a flavour of the
helmets worn by the Red Army men at that time. Again, the coat with two
rows of shiny buttons is more or less the old army greatcoat brought up
to date. There is a shoulder bag - the old map-case modernised, while
the knee-length socks and low-heeled shoes combine to produce an almost
high-boot silhouette."
"Ryazan
Madonna: a stylish, flowing silhouette with a faint suggestion of the
traditional of the Ryazan area, an impression strengthened by the
bright colours."
"This
is from a set of styles for the younger woman entitled 'Komsomol
Construction'. The jacket is reminiscent of an army tunic, but lines
are softened. It is worn with a short straight skirt, woollen stockings
of the same colour, knitted on thick needles like those worn in the
Soviet Union in the 'thirties, and high boots. The bag is the map-case
type."
Fashions by Vyacheslav Zaitsev (from "Sputnik", May 1967)
From
the spring and summer collection at the USSR Fashion House, as
exhibited at Expo-67 in Montreal. Designed by Vyacheslav Zaitsev of the
USSR Fashion House in "a blindingly pure fiery orange, an angry red,
and a green that is full of the promise of life and eternal renewal."

"The
idea of this jazzy ensemble for house-wear, designed by Slava Zaitsev,
was prompted by the material itself and its riotous colours.
Turkish-trousered pyjamas in soft silk are worn beneath a slim satin
coat, and the finishing touches are the oriental-style headgear and
slippers made from the pyjama material."
Nelli Arshavskaya
"Op
with a dash of trad - the folksy element comes through clearly, Nelli
Arshavskaya having been influenced here by the old Russian wooden folk
toys. She rather fancies these two ensembles for après-ski, but does
not insist that this is the only occasion on which they can be worn."
Ira Krutikova
"'Butterfly'
is a favourite of designer, Ira Krutikova. Its purpose i a little
difficult to define, perhaps, but the designer herself rather fancies
it for receiving guests in the garden. It consists of a great circular
cape worn over a leotard in stretch material. Gold sandals are sewn on
to the feet of the leotard."

"An
evening dress for a grand occasion. In wool crepe, it is based on a
traditional Russian style." (From 'Sputnik', October 1968)
"Dress
for day wear, sporty but elegant, so that a girl can go on to her date
after work in it without a qualm." (From 'Sputnik', October 1968)
"A cape is the thing when autumn days begin to get a little colder. We
are likely to see many of them in Moscow before long." (From 'Sputnik',
