Answer 2

Russia is a vast nation and hence, the kind of clothing that one would notice in the dedicated stores of Moscow would naturally be quite different to that found in Siberia. Leather is a fetish in Russia. Lined with fur, the look has become synonymous with Russian clothing. In general, traditional Russian men like to flaunt leather a lot. In fact, till today, no matter what the time of the year is, a leather jacket is a cool thing to have! Russian women wear dresses or long skirts and blouses and love to flaunt high heels.

Color preferences in Russian clothing:

There is a distinct difference in the color and theme preference of the Russian men and women; while the men do not usually like flaunting bright colors in clothing, the women do. The men prefer sober, earthy tones and prefer to keep the look 'calm'. Many Russians find black and white being very elegant. They pick dark colors mainly due to the amount of dust and mud around and this is a practical choice that runs down the generations. The Russians wear different colors on occasions too; however the colors they choose seem to tell of their lifestyle! There is no hiding the fact that the Russians work very hard and their down-to-earth demeanor is seen in their clothing too.

The colors often seen on Russian men and women tell of their occupation and lifestyle. The colors are from a different scale. The rest of the world is used to people wearing blue, red, yellow and even pink. However, when it comes to shocking and deep shades, only the Russians know how to flaunt them. And the beauty of these people lies in the fact that the shades of colors look different on them and even more natural! The normal fabrics they choose are also to compliment the climatic conditions. They use a lot of wool and linen and in the Russian 'killer' winter, furs are a reasonably natural choice.

Moscow fashion:

The fashion trends followed in the capital city of Moscow are quite close to those observed in Europe or New York. The winter clothing differs a bit, since the Russian winters are definitely a challenge. Russian fashion is distinctively different. There are a number of authentic and dedicated online and offline resources that make designer Russian clothing available. In fact, the easiest way to learn more about Russian clothing and purchase authentic apparel is just a click away! Most of the apparel found in other parts of the world, claiming to be Russian, is usually decorated with traditional Russian motifs.

Traditional Russian clothing:

There are a variety of styles to pick from in the way of Russian clothing. The Russian woman's head-dress is called the kokoshnik. In the western world there are replicas of the original head gear available in an array of fine prints and colors. The fine linen rubashka or the shirts that Russian men wear can also be found at a number of dedicated department stores. The sarafan or the traditional dress of the Russian women is available at a number of outlets, with exclusive embroidery in brocade and silk. And last, but not the least, there is the special and most beautiful Russian shawl. There are tow famous varieties of Russian shawls - the Orenburg goat down shawls and the Pavlovo Posad (100% woolen) shawls.

Symbolism of Russian clothing:

Russian clothing is a show of the traditional folk art and the spirit of the culture of Russia. Traditional Russian clothing is designed to highlight the inner dignity and emotional restraint of every woman.
