Looking through the photographs of many Russian and international competitions, you will notice a common trend - designers are in constant search of inspiration and new ideas, and again returned to the subject of ethnic costume. For Buryatia ethnics popularity in the fashion world as relevant as ever - is a great way to promote our culture and aesthetics with the help of clothes - a visual embodiment of centuries-old culture, pride and the spirit of the people.

From time immemorial, the Buryats were nomads and adapted their clothing - degel length covers your knees when riding that does not freeze even in extreme cold. It is ideal for horse riding and can serve as a camp bed - one floor you can lie down, and the other - to take refuge. Now in total there are about 400 species of degel, 20 kinds of national footwear and 10 kinds of belts. Originally there were many interesting criteria in clothes decoration, which were determined by race, tribe, wealth, class person: style, color and fabric quality.(http://www.dressesmallau.co/vintage-formal-dresses-c110/)

The name "Kharas" in Buryat meaning view, reflected in the image of the eye on the clothes as a protective element that resembles a Jewish symbol.

All suits for the collection "Baikal Constellation" Eugene sewed from silk Mongolian and a special admiration always cause her bold images and experiments with forms designer that start in childhood.

I started sewing as a child, and, probably, like everyone in this age, the first products was such a classic of the genre: clothing, headgear dolls, and when she became older, she went with her sister on the circle cutting and sewing. I remember that the first time we sewed overalls, and then have the pattern of the magazine "Burda Fashion", or I myself invented outfits. Although still the most-the very first product was an outfit for Barbie (laughs), but this has been more professionally stitched a little black dress with a crew neck, trimmed with rabbit fur. It sounds like a royal attire (laughs).(http://www.dressesmallau.co/formal-dresses-canberra-c329/)
