The main character of the first day of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia was SlavaZaitsev, who is celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of his creative work this spring. The Week started with a great fashion show 'Associations'.

Symbolically, at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia all three generations of the Zaitsev dynasty performed - on the 25th of MarchYegorZaitsev presented his new collection, and on the 24th was the début of Vyacheslav Zaitsev's granddaugher,MarusyaZaitseva.

One can be certain that young talented designers have a brilliant future by simply looking at the example of the British brand BASHARATYANV, which débuted at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia just last season. Veronika Basharatyan, not so long ago thought to be a novice in the fashion scene, recently made herself known so confidently that she attracted the attention of the biggest world stars - the guest of her show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia fall-winter 2012-2013 was Italian film diva and style icon OrnellaMuti. The actress came to Moscow in order to be among the first ones to see the collection by Veronika, who she met in Milan. There were a lot of gifted débutantes announced in the programme of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia, including DIMANEU - the winner of the first season of the Russian version of 'Project Runway'. Young designers performed both in the framework of separate shows and presentations and in collective shows.
