Men's Collection Fall-Winter 2005—2006
DENIS SIMACHEV trade-mark presents it’’s new collection of clothing at Milan Fashion Week. This time DENIS SIMACHEV was inspired by the crucial period
in the history of Russia at the beginning of the twentieth century. This was the time of the «Russian renaissance» and carrot tea, the time of Batka Makhno, who was a sort of a swell fop and an indefatigable sex-machine, and
red commissars chasing after him. It was the time of the captured coats and neckpieces on the proletarian «ladies»’ shoulders. The motto of the collection is «Peace for the World», and the main character is «Vasilvanych Chapaev»
(pet-named VASYA), this all-time trash-icon and a hero of each female member of the Komsomol lurking dreams. The arsenal of a man in the next autumn and winter season is a combination of audacity, luxury,
metrosexuality, and cool talk. The collection is made mostly in gray, brown, salad, pink, gold, silver and fluorescent ultrachameleon colors. These are the colors of a carnival, carefree laugh, bright jokes and absolute joy. Positive
irony and Russian chic show through each cloth article.Common people’s autographs like «Katya – dura (Katya’s fool)» or «Zdes byl Vasya (Vasya was here)» on the photos of the odious megaidol Chapaev put this figure on the
same level with ordinary people.There are caps of the caracul, the main fetish of the Soviet era leaders from Lenin to Gorbachev, embroidered with glass beads and strasses, felt cloaks resembling a poncho, leather waist and
shoulder belts painted salad and decorated by Russian folk ornaments.For making the collection DENIS SIMACHEV trade-mark used luxurious and expensive fabrics such as silk, satin, velvet, chiffon, crepe-georgette, gauze,
brocade, busses, Damascus, organza, lace, as well as wool, fur, leather, suede. All these all-time attributes of the brilliance excellently match modern fabrics produced using high technologies. Iina Krymskaya, the chief of the
design office developing new technologies for DENIS SIMACHEV trade-mark, says:
«In the new collection we included articles made of medical paper. After being
specially treated, this paper preserves its valuable properties such as high heat conductivity and lightness and simultaneously shows absolutely new properties.Tempera applied on the crumpled surface of the naturally colored
paper provides a unique effect and creates an impression of the paint peel-off on the creases. The effect achieved with pigments is also impressive.»In addition, we developed an original method for the treatment of sheeting
fabric. When ready clothes are allowed to shrink under special conditions, the fabric of which these are made surprisingly changes its texture and relief. This technology made it possible to create truly unique clothes which are
expected to become actual in the next winter.»As with all previous collections of DENIS SIMACHEV trade-mark the new collection is characterized by technological difficulties involved in the realization of the designer’s solutions
technological difficulties involved in the realization of the designer’s solutions and the elegant perfect silhouette of the clothes,not to mention about non-standard style solutions, handwork use, and constant search of ways for
improving the manufacturing technologies. Seam vulcanization, special type stitching and other manufacturing techniques make each collection of the designer truly unique.
