With Paris Fashion Week running March 1-9, Relaxnews caught up with Russian fashion designer Valentin Yudashkin, whose Fall-Winter 2016/2017 collection will be unveiled on Sunday, March 6 at 10:00 AM local time. What was the inspiration behind the new collection? The amazing beauty of the Urals and Siberia, the heroes of fairy tales of Russian writer Pavel Bazhov and legends which are transmitted from generation to generation by the natives, as well as talented Ural and Siberian master craftsmen, who for many centuries have created unique artistic paintings and jewelry with precious stones and minerals, in particular, beautiful malachite.
