@bymayaginzburg I think a lot of Asian and Middle Eastern fashion is beautiful and complex - but tbh I'd also love seeing videos about specific fashion to the US (Midwestern, 90s models day out, etc!!), or even fashion trends!
In Poland we had "kociaki", "kittens", women following western fashions and lifestyle, their male counterparts being called "bikiniarze". I've read some bizzare and very badly writted articles trying to ostricize them in fashion magazines from the late 1940s.
That’s so interesting! Do you have any idea if they were politically motivated subculture? Or similar to stilyagi in their escapist attitudes and rather apolitical?
Rigas mode comes a bit later after the stilyagi, as the movement started to wind down, but is super interesting as one of the first soviet fashion magazines that opened the door to custom fashion, fashion plates and trends in the soviet union!
@@bymayaginzburg the diagrams (language aside) may seem intimidating at first but once you figure out your size the fit is much better than the Big 4s. Thank goodness for the translate function in Google Lens🙌🏾. Looking forward to the future video!
i’m working on a collection inspired in part by soviet fashion right now so this was such a lovely find!!
I hope it was a help! Feel free to check out the sources in the description too, you might find some goodies!
I love this video!!! Id love for you to make more videos based on specific fashion in parts of the world! Excited to see you blow up ❣️‼️
