MUSCOVITES

E-mail Designer
"This collection has been inspired by my native city the way I know it and I love it. So Moscow comes undone in my collection. Unlike Lubok images in formal travel-guides, here we can get acquainted with European, a bit cosmopolitan capital, which has always been a cradle for stunning ideas and innovative solutions. My Muscovites have inherited ingenious and ironic treasure of experience left by the brightest minds of the constructivism epoch, such as Konstantin Melnikov, Moisei Ginzburg, Le Corbusier, Vesnin, Eisenstein and many other names, not as widely spread as vodka, Pushkin, balalaika traditionally associated with Russia. New Muscovites are challenging, bold, even audacious. But still they are open-hearted, eager for knowledge and intelligent. So I'm happy to introduce this friends of mine, the muscovites as I see them!"

Maria has travelled a lot, brining inspiration either from the capitals and from wild and distant spots of our planet.
Her first collection was born in 2007 and aroused interested at the Russian Fashion Week. In 2008 Masha Kravtsova was invited by Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana to participate in Milan Fashion Week, where her collection, already the 5th season by Masha Kravtsova, was a great success, the accent was placed on the precious shoes hand-made in Italy. Up to this moment all the garments and accessories are produced in Italy.
The Muscovites is the most mature collection by Masha, where she came to understanding that real chic is rather whispering than shouting. Its hugging you with the tenderest textures, it's caressing your eyes with mild and soft colors and it's all about your uniqueness.
