14.99 €
Men’s clothing of the XXI century is simple and comfortable, but sometimes when you look at utilitarianly dressed people around you yearn for elegant images of the end of the last century. Collector of old clothes Nikita Ovodkov on the example of the most valuable items of his collection recreates in detail the costume of a city dweller of the Russian Empire of the pre-revolutionary decades.
What did men wear under their black coats? How did you handle the cufflinks and ties? Which accessory, despite all its elegance, gave men the most inconvenience, and in what clothes they were blessed at the resort? To assess the beauty and complexity of the men’s suit before the beginning of its total simplification, cheapening and transfer to the rails of mass production will help this study, equipped with photos of objects from the author’s collection.
