Russian fashion is traditionally associated with the glamour of full fur coats, sparkling gems and real leather bags. But as the world moves towards sustainable fashion and ethical products, how will this historic image endure? 

Expert fashion stylist, Natasha Vinnikova (as featured in Elle Russia and Vogue Italia), hosts Week 3 of the Masterclasses Series on Russian Fashion Through the Ages. This masterclass glimpses into the future of Russian fashion, exploring how it might endure as we move into the future, and delve into a discussion of what factors the industry must consider to survive on tomorrow’s international fashion platform.
