The Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia in Moscow this year played host to the Kazakhstan Fashion Week Showcase, showing off designers from the former republic, now young visitors to Paris Fashion Week and more.
Today was the turn of Dinara Satzhan, Naiyl Baikuchukov, the brand Ye.s Couture by Yegana Sadyxova, and Di Siitova.
Naiyl showed off her semi-transparent collection, encrusted with pearls and jewels and sporting long, feathered tails and high collars.
Dii Siitova presented a collection inspired by Native American culture, with gowns and garments looking as if they were created by nature itself.
Yegana Sadyxova created a futuristic gown collection, with models sporting jeweled face masks and balaclavas on the runway. Dinara Satzhan showed off a collection fully inspired by the national dress of her native Kazakhstan but with a modern twist - with models wearing traditional tubeteika headdresses (albeit made of space-age fabrics). All added an international flair to the day, with the audience completely enthralled by the variety and passion of the young talent.
