For its 10th anniversary, the Ulyana Sergeenko fashion House opens and celebrates with its new Spring-Summer 2021 Couture collection.\u00a0The heroine of the collection was inspired by the image of Vera Kholodnaya, the most famous Russian actress of silent films.\u00a0
\u00a0Vera, known as \u201cthe queen of the screen,” charmed audiences with her gracious beauty and the piercing gaze of her bottomless eyes, drowning in a sea of dark shadows\u2014an image that became a classic over the short, but thrilling few years of her career. Almost a hundred years later, Ulyana pays an homage to her image and tells the story of a heroine of a new era: bohemian and romantic, strong and brave, and unflappably elegant.

Other legendary names of the 1920s share this season\u2019s moodboard with Vera Kholodnaya: namely, the sculptor Dem\u00e9tre Chiparus with his dancing ladies, and the artist Roman Tyrtov\u2014better known under the pseudonym Erte\u2014whose graphic artworks for Vogue and Harper\u2019s Bazaar embody the spirit of his time. Here are also architecture, interior d\u00e9cor, urban landmarks, and sculptures: New York\u2019s Empire State Building, the Lenin Library in Moscow, Vera Mukhina\u2019s sculpture \u201cThe Worker and the Kolkhoz Woman,\u201d Moscow\u2019s \u201cAeroport\u201d metro station, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The character of all the collection\u2019s elements and artistic approaches was inspired by Art-D\u00e9co \u2014 the ruling style of the 1920s when the icons of the brand\u2019s collection lived and worked. The style\u2019s influence can be traced through the combination of textures, the nature of the lines and silhouettes, the choice of colors, and the graphic focus of the ornamentation and embroidery. In the new collection, all of the attention is devoted, as usual, to natural fabrics, manual labor, and the exquisite quality of the pieces.

For daily appearances, Ulyana Sergeenko dresses her heroine in austere but relaxed suits with wide and slightly turned up shoulders, wide trousers, soft cardigans, and comfortable chiffon dresses. During the night she shines in dresses made of flowing, airy fabrics, with ringing fringes and transparent shards of crystal scattered over her outfits. A \u201cfur coat\u201d made of marabou feathers or a shawl made of embroidered silk threads is thrown over her shoulders. The lightness of evening dresses made of weightless fabrics gives plasticity to the whole image as if in front of us is a living sculpture by Dem\u00e9tre Chiparus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knowing for her great passion for traditional crafts and rare techniques, Ulyana adorns the new collection with numerous handcrafted details. This season, the fashion house is working together with more Russian traditional crafts than ever: crystal details for clothing and accessories were created at the Gus Khrustalny factory, the miniature buttons and brooches for suits and dresses were painted by the artists at \u201cRostovskaya Finift\u201d, the lace elements for evening wear were concocted by master craftswomen at \u201cLace Land\u201d atelier from Yelets and the Kadomsky Veniz factory, the geometric ornaments were embroidered by Krestetskaya Stitch and the clutches were hand-carved from wood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The accessory line is presented with a wide range of items: from headpieces and face masks embroidered with Yelets laces and decorated with crystals, Carl Zeiss lens with author\u2019s ornaments on it, to the variety of belts with crystal elements, hand craved wood clutches, fully embroidered beaded bags, and, of course, high heels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
